Cleaning Marathon-Day 2

Ok, so my cleaning plan didn't go, well, as planned. I worked so hard all afternoon, but I still didn't manage to get everything done that I had written down. But I'm not giving up. Here's what I did get done....

~Got leftover roll of vinyl, borrowed tools from my dad, and a few other things that made there way from my folks house loaded up and taken down to their house.

~Did some general picking up and cleaning in the living/dining room.

~Got most of the dishes caught up and wiped down the cabinets.

~Did a couple loads of laundry

But somehow life seemed to get in the way. Hubby needed his hair cut, older children acted out and needed disciplining, and my youngest was having a head up mommy's rearend kind of day, and wanted to be held and coddled all day long. And ofcourse the little one in my womb had to show his colors and I suddenly found myself passed out in the floor while in the middle of picking up. Thankfully hubby's leg found it's way between my head and the floor before I really did some damage. After that, cleaning didn't seem so important and I took it easy and went to bed early per hubby's request.

So, what to do today? Well, going at it a little slower wouldn't hurt, we don't want a repeat of yesterday, but I'm still going to get some things done. Now I've realized that there are a few tasks that are going to take one or more days to do on there own. So I've jotted down a list and will work on those things a bit later. Things like going through and shredding, filing, or trashing the piles and boxes of paper and many of the outdoor tasks will take several days to complete even with hubby's help. So, without further a do...

Here's a list of today's goals:

~Finish up in the living/dining room and kitchen

~Keep up with kitchen duties

~Work in master bed/bath

~Wash at least 3 loads of laundry

And then if there is time:

~Move on to playroom. The play room will take me a couple days, so if I can get to a little bit today and more tomorrow.

I guess the plan is to work on a room until I'm done, and then move on to the next. If I get several rooms done, then great, if not, then I'll work on it tomorrow.

So, off to work, and will be back later to post an update.

Blessings,
