Day #6-14
I’m going to challenge myself by following the 31 Day Cleaning Challenge with Money Saving Mom. She is using the chart from Fresh and Organized.
Has it been over 8 days since I posted on this Challenge? Well, I have to admit I have been doing the challenge! When I get on my computer I have been doing a lot of other things like finishing up my small business paperwork, creating some embroidery items for customers and working on a new up and coming sewing forum. Feel free to check it out! It is called 4 the love of fabric.com. It is a paid subscription forum. It is a great place to talk and learn about sewing, quilting, and embroidery.
Day 6:
Clean Bathrooms – Since the bathrooms were basically already cleaned from a couple days ago I didn’t feel I needed to again so I continued on working on the office paper work.
Day 7:
All interior windows – This is still on my list. I used the rest of the weekend to catch up on keeping the kitchen and family room clean.
Day 8:
Sweep and vaccum all of the rooms in the house – I’ve always wanted to do this! I’m not joking. But, my house is always a mess in some room. So I made it a challenge on Day 12 and Day 13 to do this challenge and I almost succeeded.
Day 9:
Surface clean bedrooms – I worked again on my daughter’s room the master bedroom. We got several loads of laundry put away.
Day 10:
Deep clean the family room – I actually did some of this. I cleaned the TV, dusted around the hearth and some of the base boards.
Day 11:
Clean the bathrooms – I wanted to do this but I needed to catch up again on the kitchen, laundry and other chores.
Day 12:
Clean out closets – Hahah! This one is a challenge so I went back and did the sweeping and vacuuming of the house. The best part is I remembered I have a Roomba. I forgot we had one. We have the original one. My hubby had it in the basement so I used it in there both on Day 12 and Day 13 since it really needed it. We have a lot of kid toys down there and it helped to convince the kids to clean up the toys because the “robot” doesn’t like to vacuum toys.
Day 13:
Surface clean the other rooms – Besides vacuuming the other rooms and doing some more laundry. I did tackle the guest bedroom that has a bit of everything. It has the donation pile, the consignment sale and my extra sewing supplies. I had my hubby take the donation pile to the Salvation Army today – total of 5 bags.
