1/1/13

Alright, so the point of this blog is to help me stay on top of my new year's resolution: to clean, de-clutter, and organize our home. I'll be totally honest: Sweet Man and I are both kind of messy and lazy (there, I said it.) And it's getting kind of old. I don't like living like this. I want to have a nice, clean home, where I can find things when I need them.

But I hate cleaning. I really, really do. So the blog is to keep me accountable. I want to try to post every day, except maybe Sundays. Because even though I don't work, Sundays still seem to be my lazy day.

So let's get things started!
Honestly, I didn't do much today...I slept real late, and just didn't feel motivated. Staying out half the night last night for New Year's Eve didn't help, I'm sure. I did manage to do some dishes, make dinner (this is an uncommon occurance, since Sweet Man is usually the closing manager at the restaurant, so it's just me at dinnertime.) I also took down our Christmas tree, which made me just a little sad. It also reminded me that I need to get some nightlights...we'd been leaving the tree on at night, and now I won't be able to see when I'm stumbling between the bedroom and bathroom.

The main thing I was planning on doing (and didn't) was to move a small bookcase to the area where the tree was, and round up all of our DVDs and Xbox games to go in it (we'll be needing a bigger bookcase for all of our actual books.) I was also going to be cleaning out some stacked milk crates we've been using as shelves in the living room. I mean, I just graduated from college...I don't think the milk-crates-as-furniture thing will fly anymore.

But alas, I guess it will all wait until tomorrow. Oh, and I changed our air filter, because I read a thing on another blog about changing it on the first of the month, so you always remember. So hopefully I remember on the first of next month. We'll see :)
