"House Cleaning" I commit to:
Spend 30 minutes a day on any 6 days of the week, cleaning and neatening my house. Or on weeks when I travel the total number of minutes per week spent cleaning shall equal 180.
So once I finish cleaning out, I can get to really cleaning up. At least I'll have a role model. Sue

Hi Sara, Hope you're not so busy cleaning that you don't have time to report!. It does take time to write the stuff up. I've been clearing out the garage and the upstairs bedroom closets -- about 2-6 hours a day for a while now! Between the stuff I need to keep and the stuff I shouldn't be keeping, I've thought that if I ever fell in love again and he moved in, I'd have to build him a shed for his toothbrush et alia. And, oh, the bird poop, naturally a beautiful shade of blackberry, has stained the large rocks around the pond. The birds are so beautiful to watch but they never leave without a signature. Next I'm going to try white vinegar and see if that works. Sue

I have to laugh as I sit here in my study with a heap of papers next to the computer. I do go though the papers periodically and dispatch most, and soon a new pile emerges. I'm hoping you'll inspire me to keep up better. There's a fellow who used to work for me whose desk was so neat when he left at night that it looked like he'd left forever. I bought him a huge red plastic paper clip (3 inches by 2 inches) which he could leave out. At least it's clear we're still alive! Sue

Almost all the work in my study - must finish this

I 60 minutes today which puts me over my weekly goal. The stunning thing is that I have barely made a dent in the work to do in my study. So many papers, so many stacks of unorganized papers. Sigh.

Spent another 45 minute neatening my study. So far it's barely noticeable. I'm going to continue this week there. Total so far 75 minutes. 30 more to go right now.

My 30 minutes today will be spend in neatening my study, which is the messiest room in the house.

Was going to say "good going" but then read the details of your week and am "very impressed". Sue

I am traveling today, and had already completed my goal for this week 180 minutes cleaning. Coming home to a clean house will be special

Yesterday I worked 60 minutes to finish my 180 goal for this week. I'm traveling so I had to do the cleaning in a shorter time period. I washed the kitchen floor and polished it with hard wood stuff. Did the DR floor. Spackled the pupped hole in the bathroom wall. Vacced the sofa and two chairs. DONE!
