30 Days To A Clean Home - Day Five

Day Five

Day Five (Monday) was a great day! I got all my work done long before it was time to go get the spawn from school, and all in all I worked for less then 2 hours. Not much less, but every little bit counts! My internet went down again later that night, so that was annoying. I guess they were doing some maintenance or something.

I started the day with the four things I must do daily, and as is the current trend, I was able to get more then just those four done in the allotted time. I find things have a much better flow if I keep working for the 15 minutes verses taking that time to sit on my butt. Sometimes I even get the next item done before its time! Believe it or not though, I'm still having some issues with getting started, even though its merely an hour per day of cleaning. Most of that seems to stem from my constant exhaustion. I always feel sleep deprived, its quite annoying...especially considering I'm getting about 7-8 hours of sleep a night. Once I get going though, I'm usually fine.

I also did the Weekly Home Blessing Hour today...although it only took about 30 -40 minutes. I didn't have to do the magazines, and once again the flow helped. I just seamlessly did whatever was next on my list. I think the only thing that took the full 10 minutes allotted was dusting, and the only room I didn't hit was the bathroom, so I'll start there next Monday. I vacuumed the rug in the living room and the one in the kitchen, swept and mopped my floors, did the mirrors and basically had a good time cleaning!

I did break the two hours up with a 20 minute nap, and I definitely broke into a sweat doing the cleaning! And now on to the pictures...
