Making the Spring Cleaning List

Thursday, March 18th, 2010

Like every year, I’ve begun making my spring cleaning list.  But this year I have every intention of following through and finishing the list (I do that every year too…)!  My plan to actually follow through is to give myself a longer period in which to accomplish spring cleaning as well as give myself a deadline.  I want to have the house in tip-top shape by the end of April!

I’m starting in the living room.  There is an ulterior motive starting in this room…John’s about to crawl and it is the only carpeted room in the house.  There are a few extra pieces of furniture in there that we’ll be moving to the attic and then rearranging the room so John has as much free space to crawl and move about as he needs.  I don’t want to continuously be saying “no” to keep him out of things so I also want to move as much stuff out of his reach as possible.

Oh, on a happy note, I did finish one big spring cleaning project.  I completely emptied and organized my clothes closet!  I got rid of 2 trash bags full of clothing.  It felt so good to get that done.
