While I am a week behind on Money Saving Mom's 4 Weeks to a More Organized Home, I am still moving right along and working on her daily assignments as I can between work and my other work. ;)
Today I set my 15 minute timer and was able to change the bed sheets, start a load of laundry that had been sitting in the bedroom waiting to be done for almost a week, as well as wipe down the bed, dressers, and night stands. The timer went off and my 15 minutes was up, but I decided since I was so close to having a clean bedroom that I might as well take the extra 10 minutes and pull out the vacuum! I am so glad that I did this. I swept under the bed, behind the door, around the litter box... it's amazing how a little cat hair here and there can fill up the vacuum canister!
My freezer was a fairly easy task as I had cleaned it out a few months ago, so I just needed to wipe down the shelves. I did find a few things to add to my menu in the next few days, so that was a wonderful discovery.
Today for my 7 things to get rid of I went through the cat toys... There are tons of them, but *most* of them still get played with!
