It's called baby steps!

I FINISHED MY FIRST TASK! And ahead of schedule.

I did it last night. I took pics, and I will post them later when Tyler takes a nap. It took me about 4 hours to do it. *ducking head in shame* It was harder than I thought! Normally when I clean (clean as in someone is coming over) I just stash things somewhere. I really took the time to put everything away, where it went. Except for Tyler's toys. Those are on a chair in the dining room. But everything else was put away.

I cleaned, I swept and mopped under all the furniture (except the entertainment center--way to hard for me to lift alone--and found tons of crap under the couch), swept and mopped under the rugs, dusted (I won't mention how many inches of dust where on things--Madison was like ewwwww what is that?) everything including the tops of the picture frames, took off the couch cushions and swept all the crumbs up.....you get the picture.

So Michele, I am sorry. No $5 for you.

I want to work on my dining room, but tomorrow and the weekend will be so busy, I don't think I will have "time" to get it done. I will probably start that on Monday.

It's really hard work to put things away where they belong ... especially when they're woefully out of order. Kudos to you for getting it done!!!!
