I feel great in my tidy laundry room! I only got around to that challenge last week. The order of the challenges seems to be so thought out. I'm needing to find the time to clean out the fridge yet...I'm constantly reminded of that need.

I didn't post yesterday, but only managed to shine my sink and clear hot spots.

Today I cleaned bathrooms, played a board game with my kids with hot chocolate on hand, cleared hot spots and shined my sink. Laundry accumulated over the weekend to be too much for me to finish in one day. :phew

HOTS SPOTS (10pts) :shifty :blush I think my hot spots have taken over.....
Where's your Laundry (10pts) DONE

[rstump]

Remember BABY steps on the hot spots. Don't think you need to PUT them out. Just make a dent. Set that timer....just 1 minute. How much can you throw out or put away in 1 min. Make a game....do only 5 minutes a day but 1 min at a time.


Tomorrow's challenge. :) http://www.gentlechristianmothers.com/mb/index.php?topic=149809.0


Any new ideas? I know we have lost most of the challengers so I can really focus on anything your guys need added to the list. I mostly just look around my house and see what is on my list....but I am open to ideas. Let me know! :rockon
