I went grocery shopping today and I came home to kitchen counters I could USE! It was awesome. The fridge was pretty clean so I didn't even have to go in and toss a bunch of old food. My bathroom is now clean and so is my bedroom. The last room left to declutter is my living room.
After I do that, I'll go after the hidden jobs. Bathroom closet, bedroom closet, craft room storage, kitchen cabinets, etc. I'm feeling really good about this whole thing. I feel like I've accomplished a lot of change in a pretty short time.
When Steve works out, instead of sitting in front of the TV, I try and find something that needs doing. I've been making his breakfast and some of his lunch for the next day every night after dinner since I'm usually cleaning up the kitchen at that time anyway. I put on music and dance and have at it.
I have a new planner and a notebook that I use to keep track of things. I'm not perfect in this regard but it's a process, ya know? I made myself a shopping checklist because I ALWAYS forget my cloth bags or my list or both. We have a white board on the fridge to write what we need and half the time I don't look at it and then I have to go to the store the next day. Now all of this is on my checklist. I checked it before I left today and came home with everything I needed in my cloth bags. :D
