[monkeylicious]

[monkeylicious]

gigi was throwing up last night - so that has me doing laundry already :yawn
went downstairs to get a basket, went up to 3rd and collected her blankets and sleeper, brought them downstairs to 1st and started them on a double rinse cycle :shifty , brought basket back up to main and wiped it down :yes

[knitlove]

I don't like to see this before I see the challenges for today, but Oh well as soon as I get some shoes on I will take out the trash and recycling.

[klpmommy]

took the trash out & took trash to the curb for pick up

[monkeylicious]

took recycling downstairs and put soap in with pukey stuff to wash :sick

[TrinMama]

i put some camera gear away...starting the baby-proofing today. my niece is coming in three weeks, and she's into everything apparently! And, little man will be into everything once he gets moving. :shifty

[monkeylicious]

scooped litter :sick

[TrinMama]

took recycling out and make breakfast for me and M. time to shower and get T ready for school.

[KatieMae]

Who else is sleepy from staying up watching election coverage last night?

I need to go clean up dishes - since I did ZERO dishes yesterday.

[Victorious]

Coming back :sigh

[Aisling]

I'm soooo sleepy, Katie! :yawn :yes2 We had company last night, so I did all the dishes to get a head start, but today...staying up so late wiped me slap out! :tired

I unloaded and loaded the dishwasher, wiped down the surfaces, made breakfast

[monkeylicious]

i'm tired too :yawn but unfortunately it is because i was up with a sick child half of the night (the half i wasn't nursing someone else :rolleyes ) but, i'm always better in the morning, so trying to get some things done... but gigi is still sick :sick

picked up couple things in bathroom, stripped gigi's bed (i don't think it is puke-y) but figured it was a good idea!, brought down the things for the laundry

[knitlove]

[charla]

[KatieMae]

switched laundry
looking at my declutter plan trying to figure out where to start :scratch - a little overwhelming

... it should be prioritized, right? Start with #1!

[Aisling]

These are totally an obvious attempt to salvage my pride before I humiliate myself: my 3 highest traffic rooms, and how they've looked all week. :giggle

Room of doom that I'm starting today. :bag Can we say "massive de-clutturing needed"? :eek The rest of our house is so simplicstic and pleasant, and THIS!! This is just awful. It's all the literal baggage we've carried around since our family was established. And it HAS to go. :no Best part?? I might actually gain a functional ROOM out of this!! :jawdrop

[schmamy]

must.get.off.computer.now.

OY! off for more than five minutes, it's lunchtime...

[schmamy]

WOW, Ashley, those top rooms look GREAT!! :rockon

and that other one...bless your heart, mama, you've got your work cut out for you, huh? :giggle :hug
but the top ones TOTALLY cancel out any embarrassment, they look so nice. ;)

[MamaPepper]

folded laundry and got box out to pack winter stuff for move to NE. .

LOVE the pictures Ashely!!

[Aisling]

We have one "cleanie" and one big "messie" in our house...wanna guess who the cleanie is? :giggle OK. Off to slay the dragon.

[Rose]

Ooh, I think that I really need this thread. I'm not very ambitious when it comes to cleaning... :shifty

However, I am rewashing my 3-week old laundry, removed the garbage from under my sink and let the puppy out.

[monkeylicious]

switched laundry, made toast for gigi, held gigi's hair out of her face and dabbed forehead with cool damp cloth (poor baby threw up some more), made lunch for me and shoveled it, now gigi has fallen asleep on the floor and i'm trying to keep evie from climbing all over her

[jblairosu]

I love the "Room of Doom" title. That totally was the "guest bedroom" although I'm not sure what guest other than a mouse, spider, or cricket could have stayed in there. Anyway, that was the room that became Little T's room so it had to be totally gone through before he was born. It went from pink carpet and pink walls (ala the previous owner) with mounds of stuff everywhere, to a newly re-carpeted, yellow walled, cute little boys room! :) My second "Room of Doom" became the office but it is slowly but surely coming along nicely! I just finished clearing off the top of our big filing cabinet. Do we really still need the water bill from February 2006??? I think not! :giggle

[knitlove]

ok I am back in laundry and then off to the library and post office

[MamaPepper]

folded and packed bag of winter clothes to box up and move back!

[charla]

I don't want to. It's too hard. :hissyfit :giggle

[LoveIsGentle]

Just spent the last 2.5 hours cleaning out our old apartment. I'm exhausted.

Just made lunch too, off to go clear dishes

[charla]

decluttered hall linen closet and drawers and shelves in both bathrooms that contain towels

[Rose]

I just picked up all of dd's toys from the living room and placed them ((admittedly in a pile)) in her room.

I also got her a new bottle in hopes that she might take a nap while we are having "quiet time".

I also moved the 30# bag of dog food to the top of our basement stairs so DH can haul them down for me when he wakes up. :)

[DragonfliiMama]

home from buying shelves and stuff to organize kitchen cupboards

[charla]

switched laundry
cooking lunch

[KatieMae]

Your work is definitely cut out for you, Ashley. May I ask, what is that room going to be when it's cleaned out? I think I see some office furniture, but the computer is in the family room? Just curious. I think it's so important to start with a clear vision of how your space is going to function when you're done.

Good luck!

[MamaPepper]

Got Leo down for a nap!!! Emptied dishwasher and somehow filled the sink with dirty dishes again. . . :scratch

[charla]

put one load of laundry away
finished cooking lunch

[MamaPepper]

AAachhh. . Can't I just watch a little TV????

BBin5

[MamaPepper]

threw in another load of laundry

[Aisling]

3 bags for goodwill, 2 bags of trash, all the empty boxes out, fabric scraps sorted and contained :phew

1 whole hour of hard core de-cluttering!! :woohoo

[swimming with sharks]

desperately tried to put dragon down for his nap...no good. His teeth hurt and my nipples hurt....and I'm filled with rage... :sick :mad (another post) I moved the canned goods and extra foods we bought today out to the garage shelves. Cleaned out nearly the entire basked of 'stuff' by the garage door. Went through about three piles of clutter and threw out most of them.

[Aisling]

That room is more or less our filing/hobby room. (where we keep sewing, tools, ect. so the kids don't get into it. )The comp. stays in the living room, because we really don't use it for "office" work (we pay all our bills online) and it's also our T.V. We don't have a real television set. :P

The desk has to stay because it belongs to our landlady who didn't want to pay for storage. :rolleyes

[joystrength]

emptied a laundry basket of stuff that's been there for a long time!!
kids' clothes in the closet ... socks matched .. summer floaties in the "sports" bin! :phew

[klpmommy]

Swimming with Sharks :hug ITU

I took a nap. That counts, right?

[charla]

cleaned up after lunch
washed pans

[DragonfliiMama]

about half way done with the kitchen cupboards. that was about 45 min and i'm stalled b/c i have to go back to target. the spice rack i bought won't work so i need to exchange it and find a different way to organize that cupboard. that'll be the last cupboard, but it's also the fullest and worst.

[DragonfliiMama]

switched laundry, cleared a hotspot

[TrinMama]

picked up some baby clothes.....then picked up some magazines.

[Naked Camper]

i'm not so much doing 5's today, but i've cleaned more of the dining room, organized and made labels for our home file folder (it's about time! I've only said I was going to do that for 2 years now :shifty), cleaned out the cheap junky toys from the upstairs toy basket and took larger toys back downstairs to the toy room. paid a couple of bills and scheduled the air duct guy to come on Friday.

boys are sleeping and i'm enjoying lunch! :yum

[joystrength]

a basket of laundry folded and ....

[klpmommy]

started the silver tea set soaking, attempted 15 minutes in the formals, but S is being needy

[Blue Savannah]

laundry in dryer

[DragonfliiMama]

hung picture frames - i can't believe that took a whole hour! We have been in this apartment for over a year and I am just now hanging things on the walls. And the worst part is that this is the second job today where I have one last bit that I'm going to have to come back to after a trip to the store - I broke a frame while I was hanging them so now I need to replace it.

[Rose]

Ran errands.

[KatieMae]

Microwave, stove, oven all clean; fridge, d/w, cabinets, counters wiped - now to sweep the floors...

[Blue Savannah]

Go Atarah!! :rockon

[KatieMae]

Yes, really good Atarah - love the caption on the last one especially

[klpmommy]

finished my FSA reimbursement so I can mail it once dh makes copies.

[DragonfliiMama]

:clap Atarah!

Picked dh up from work and we got supper and the things I needed to finish the kitchen. Got stuff put away, hung the last frame that needed replaced, organized my purse, and dh is reorganizing the last kitchen cupboard. :phew

[Naked Camper]

:clap nice job Atarah

tomorrow is supposed to be a rainy day in my neck of the woods, so I'm anxious to see what I can get done. I have a meeting from 1-3, so that'll cut right into my day.

Goals for tomorrow: clean the kitchen (I may have to do before/after pics - it's really bad), finish cleaning the dining room, vacuum the living room, 2 loads of laundry minimum.

[Niphredil]

DH has been on (I know, how dare he, right?) but I've been cleaning 5 on 5 off since I last posted... aside from eating dinner & putting N to bed. :)

[DragonfliiMama]

I cleaned out the car! I have only been meaning to do that for who only knows how many weeks. AND I put away all the stuff I brought up from the car. :yes
