(DH Todd Speaking)
I am so proud of everything that has happened in the messy challenge. When Karen began feverishly cleaning to get points we laughed a little bit, but now we are all getting involved. It has encouraged and motivated us to keep a clean house.
I hope it is going as well at everybody else's house. Keep the challenges coming...not to fast because we still need to catch up on yesterday :)

ETA - :O I left this open to remind me of what I need to do today. DH is working from home and decided he needed to put in a good word for me. He was very proud of earning 50 points, too. :cool :giggle

I've only been doing this for a few days, but it has given me the motivation to tackle a couple of areas that have been neglected terribly. Okay, my whole house has been neglected terribly. :blush The top of my dryer is cleared off except a pile of stuff to give back to people. (It's been months since I've been able to see the knobs without moving stuff out of the way.) And my kitchen table is usable again. There is only one small pile left on the side. The last time we were able to use the table to eat at was Easter, I think. :jawdrop I know not every week will be like this, but I'm hoping I can at least keep it up.

Michelle- :highfive

I usually have to move stuff off my dryer, too, to find the knobs.

I wasn't sure what I was most proud of until I had a friend over for lunch. I made her look inside my sparkly microwave. :giggle :O It hasn't been this clean since new. :) -- 50 pts
