Day 2 (and links to Day 3)



Another BIG day here and I am exhausted!!

I had a bout of nausea last night and couldn't sleep... But I am determined to make this new routine stick, and was up and in the shower at 6:30 this morning!! I'm feeling it again now, so fingers crossed I will get a good sleep tonight and be back to myself again tomorrow.

Here is a photo of my to-do list, on the go. This was taken when I stopped for Lunch :)

My To-do List, haha @ nook... I didn't know what else to call it!

Before I start with the before and afters I want to say - I hate cleaning my room!!!

I have pretty much lived in my room recently, as I was sick in bed for 3 weeks, however, it was not tidy before that! Oh, and the part I hate most is putting my clothes away!! So it sat on the blanket box, piling up and up and up until it cascaded onto the floor!

I pulled out of my room:

  • A FULL to overflowing laundry hamper of washing
  • a garbage bag of clothes etc to donate
  • and 4 plastic bags of rubbish!
I know Kat said not to worry about sorting through our  clothes (she has that set aside for another day), but I decided (as I was putting away my clothes), that if I wasn't going to wear it again, I wasn't going to put it in my drawer! They are now stuffed full! And now that everything has been put away, I wont be able to find it {lol}

Ok so here is what you have all been waiting for! My before photo - My EXTREMELY untidy bedroom...


Before - Standing at the door
What you can't see, is the floor on the other side of the bed - {phew}

Before - Standing at Bedside Table

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

No wonder I woke up feeling like cak every morning! By cak I mean, tired, overwhelmed and unmotivated! 

If it weren't for this challenge - it would still be like that! I sooooooo did not want to do it..... Thank you Mr Mister for helping out, and keeping me motivated, in between your jobs xxx

I draaaaaaaaaaagged my feet this challenge, and it took for what seemed like an eternity, and took me a little while to get motivated again after lunch. All I wanted to do was have a nap, but once I had started and was going, I zipped through the last of it! I got everything done before the boys got home from school, all but my bed as I was waiting for the sheets on the line (along with my cushions) to dry.

I had just finished bragging to a friend that I was almost done when it started raining!! I haven't run that  fast in ages! In my rush to get them off the line, cushions jumped out of the basket, the line was spinning round I almost went ass up!! In the end I just yanked the pillow cases off the line - pegs and all! Was a huge comedy of errors! 

I broke a nail :'(

Lets get dusting!
OK, now time for the pretty After Photos! Dum, da-da-dum, da-da-daaaaaaa........

After - Purdy

Moved Furniture and put up a shelf!
My bedside table
Must get a photo for that frame :)

Oh the nook!! I almost forgot about the nook! The nook {no idea what else to call it - if you know what its called please let me know} was a dumping ground for stuff! There was stuff there I forgot I had, and something I had been trying to find for aaaaaaaages! I will show you what I mean, by 'nook'...

Before
This is my 'nook' before! Not that you can tell :/

After
And this is it after! Now I might be able to actually USE the Mirror. Shock Horror! So, does anyone know if there is a technical term for my nook? Or do you think nook would suffice? Please leave me a comment below!

Tomorrow, Day 3, is to clean and tidy the Laundry! Kat has loads of ideas for organising tips for your laundry, how to set up a laundry routine and finding time to fold {you mean there is such a thing??}.
As usual there is a printable To-Do List to keep us motivated. 

This is going to be a big job for me tomorrow - as I wont have as much time to complete it in {Miss Tilly has dance class} and I need to find my surfaces and floor before I can clean them...... That and I have a MASSIVE amount of washing to do now...... I know I will love the look of my laundry when its done tomorrow! I have been wanting to tackle it for ages!!!!

I hope you all have a great day! Talk to you tomorrow night,

Meegs xx
