Operation Clean Sweep...Day 3

I am finally DONE!!!!!!!! I just want to point out, that I couldn't have done this without my hubby. It is wonderful to be in a clean house again. I am so not going to let this happen again, I can't stand it anymore. So, here are the final pictures of my very own Operation Clean Sweep.
If you remember the disaster that was my spare room?
This is the once covered with junk walkway. Even the cats are relieved to have a clean house.
This is the bed, and made too! It was covered in Christmas decorations before.This had more Christmas decorations.
Notice the missing computers??? Now it is mostly scrapbook storage I am not using anymore.
That is it for the spare room, on to the bathroom!

Ahhhh, a clean sink, and I can find everything now!
I have a floor!
The laundry closet, CLEAN!!
AND, drumroll please..................................

Now I can scrapbook!!!

Thank you for sharing my cleaning journey. Now, all you need to do is check in with me once in a while, and keep me on my toes!

Operation Clean Sweep...Days 1 & 2

I was so busy on day 1, I didn't even have time to update my blog. Just like I said before, I have not scrapped anything, and hubby hasn't played any video games, though he wasn't happy about the plan. I have been working hard.
Day 1 involved picking up the Living Room. Cliff came home to 5 bags of garbage and this sight...
Here is my scrapbook table, covered in stuff to put away.
Here is my Living Room
Day 2
Here is my bedroom, Cliff and I worked in it last night.

It is so nice to have these rooms done. I am not doing the floors until all the rooms are done, so we don't track dirt, hair, and scraps into clean rooms. Today is Day 3 and we are attacking the spare room. Christmas stuff that is not put away, Cliff's computer collection (its got to go), sb storage, lots of odds and ends. Can you tell our spare room is our storage room? This will be an all day job, if we get done, we will do the bathroom next. However, we may hit a road bump...The NASCAR race this weekend is tonight, we might just DVR it and watch it tomorrow.

Operation Clean Sweep...Day 1

Ok, I am going to show myself in all my splendor-or NOT! Basically, I am a slob. I am going to share me, as I am in real life (irl). Please don't think bad things, the icky stuff always goes in the garbage! Problem is, my scrapspace is usually pretty clean, as you can see!
This allows me to ignore everything else and just play all day. That is going to change right now! See my lovely, clean, scrap space? Say goodbye for now! It is now going to house everything that needs a home, until my house is clean once again and the clutter put away! I will leave a tiny space for checking email and such, but I am cutting myself off from scrapping till I can clear off my table! What a reward that will be huh?!
For now, here is the rest of my house. If I can't be honest with strangers, how can I be honest with myself, right? I can't believe I am showing this, but accountability always helps me.....

Here is my Spare Room







Here is my Bedroom






Here is my Living Room






Here is my Laundry Room and Bathroom



Luckily, I have already cleaned my Kitchen, so you don't have to see all my dirty dishes!!


So, in closing, now that you have seen all this, I am still the same person, but will focus more on my house and use scrapping as a reward. A cool plus...my hubby is a video game junkie! I am adding his video game mess to my table, and he can't play games till the house is cleaned up too! Now that I am not working, at the moment anyway, I am going to be a domestic goddess, but I need lots of help, well, encouragement! This being the entire purpose of this post, honesty and accountability. I will post pics of my progress in the near future.
