I can't stand my kitchen anymore so I'm going to work on some deep cleaning today. What project are you working on today? Maybe we could encourage and cheer one another on!
So far I've taken down all of the decorations that are glass (I have a decorative plate rail) and washed them and wiped and cleaned the glass on picture frames. Next up, clean the rest of appliances and things sitting on the counter and then I'll start at the top and work my way down cleaning walls and cabinets and counter tops.

Nice work!!
I am in the midst of decluttering DH's "office"; I have two boxes and a bag of stuff for the thrift store already Then I'm going to deep clean said office-- the carpet eventually needs shampooed because the cat's litter box is in there

Re: Want to join me?
I was just thinking that I need some encouragement to clean and organize. I'm feeling a veil of depression coming over me...nothing too heavy, but it's there. I think slow cleaning and organizing will be good for me. I'll come back to this thread after I've done something.

Re: Want to join me?
I finally gave in to the purging urge yesterday (my poor family ) Feeling the need to lighten my surroundings. Cats loving the empty baskets.

I hate washing bedding. Sounds like a smart plan to dust and organize while the bedding is in the wash. Quote:

It certainly isn't perfectly clean, but it is much cleaner than it was. I.am.done. My body is tired. No more projects for me today. But I'm here to cheer you all on!

Re: Want to join me?
Still purging. So amazed at what 'lives' in my house that is not needed or even useless....like four jackets ds has outgrown, now packed up to send where they are both needed and useful. And CDs of music I bought and just don't listen to EVER.

Re: Want to join me?
I am...I think my family is nervous. I just keep telling them 'just look useful and everything will be fine.'

Re: Want to join me?
Today was groshries and recovery from a rather horrible trip home yesterday ( no one wants to plan to drive from Baltimore to Albany to Burlington leaving at 4pm getting in at 4 am) tomorrow will be about unpacking and cleaning.
I am trashing school for the week I hopes of making headway at home. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

Re: Want to join me?
Yesterday, I went through the bookshelf in the dinning room. I hold misc items and homeschool stuff. I thought I had sold a set of Saxon Math within minutes of posting it, but she changed her mind.
The girls and I went through the last of the puzzles that I plan to sell at the fall consignment sale (doing them to make sure all the pieces are there). I forgot how aggressive dd1 is about puzzles She is the definition of 'though she be small, she is fierce'. Today, I want to mow the lawn, depending on whether I can stand the humidity. We are having 'southern first fall'...which is where the heat gets to some of the trees and the leaves die and fall off. It's not a good thing, but turns one's eyes towards God in thanksgiving for air conditioning.
