For newbies:

When you see this thread, jump up (unless you're :nak, then finish) and go clean something for five minutes. When you're finished, come back here and post what you did. . . and do that every time this comes up in your UserCP.

I REALLY need this today. . . I'm so unmotivated and I'm trying to cut back on coffee. . . which just the though to of unmotivates me even more. .

So, Go!

cleaned up breakfast and lunch MESS.

It's amazingly unbelievable that the kitchen, dining area, living room, and play area were clean this morning. :sigh At least the girls are playing outside so they're not in here making more messes as I clean.
