That said, let's put todays list in type so I can stop procrastinating and get to it. Ohh my hungry little caterpiller fabrics I ordered just arrived!! Ok yeah... NOW I will stop procrastinating and get on with it
1. Get through the washing pile. That is something that never seems done, but I am in truth SO CLOSE to the end that I might as well see it through and for the first time in months actually have empty baskets!! The day isn't looking so good for washing but I'll do what I can with it *fingers crossed it doesn't rain*
Ok so I got halfway through that...dang spiders kept finding me and crawling on me! BLECK
2. Make the bed. Yes that is trivial but I actually very rarely do it, and I really should start making it a habit....exciting list right?! It gets worse....
10.51am HAHA done! hmmm not much of an achievement there though
3. CLEAN MY CRAFT ROOM I have been putting that off for days...it is a MESS and a half in there, im almost too scared to open the door and go in!
4.55pm and it's finally clean!
The top of my storage drawers *insert ashamed face* |
This is what my desk looked like before I got to it!! I told you it was messy! |
After I got through all the mess and my shelves are finally organised!! |
One clean desk!!! Yay! I seriously can't believe I let it get so bad! |
There is a floor under there....somewhere And now there's a floor! |
4pm I decided to make a rainbow layer cake instead... just one more layer to go and then the icing! NTS next time get 6 cake tins and a bigger oven and do it all at once.... 1 cake tin + 6 colours = a looong time in the making!
5. Sort out the crap in the loungeroom so we can get the boxes unpackes. Our loungeroom is where random stuff goes to collect dust...stuff that doesn't have a home, or a purpose really, but we dont know whether to throw it out or not...Im sure you have stuff like that. Well, today I'm gonna have to deal with it!
4.50pm well, I managed to get a few boxes out of the way (and into my craft room actually, now that there is space!) and a few things cleared. Hubby will help me with the rest later one (hopefully!)
And that should do it for today!
It's currently 10am in the morning... I got a LOT done on Friday so I know I can do it all, I just lack Fridays will power! Ok... here goes!
p.s I really hope the neighbours are out today because I've got my music on and it is LOUD :p
Wow, great job on the housework. I hate doing the housework, but love the results. Is that cake ready yet? Do you have a recipe? This would be great to take to the baseball bake sale!
ReplyDeletethanks Jen! me too, but it absolutely had to be done...and I couldn't take not having any space anymore :p I used a simple butter cake recipe I found online and made up the rest, I can write it all up for you in a post if you like?
DeleteFirst of all you are more brave than me! I would not want to put a pic of my desk on my blog right now :D
ReplyDeleteSecond, GREAT JOB! You have inspired me!
Third, that cake looks delish!
Haha looking back at the post I can't believe I just shared those pics with the world but it's all good, now you all know exactly how messy I can be! House inspections can give all kinds of motivation lol
DeleteI really don't miss living in an apartment. At least where you are renting, they followed the policy of giving you notice!
ReplyDeleteI have to clean the kitchen sink and make it shine or else I feel like the whole kitchen is a mess.
Cake looks awesome!! Can you help clean my house!! Gahhh, it is pretty bad right now. Its a big house but not enough cupboards and shelves to finish unpacking. Trying to sell a few things to make room but haven't sold anything yet :( think i may just have to sacrifice a few things to vinnies and maybe get another book case or cupboard.....one day....
ReplyDeleteThank Ashlee :) I can sympathise with the lack of cupboard and shelf space, I hate the thought of having to get rid of more stuff from here but the reality is we mighten't have a choice :( On the plus side though Arden picked up his big fish tank from his parents shed so we can get some goldfish to go on some of our newly cleaned space in the loungeroom!
DeleteI surely love the cake and the organizing!I know I will be up for a lot within the next few weeks...Good job there!mind sharing the cake recipe?=)
ReplyDeleteI wrote up the cake recipe (it's sort of mine, but mostly not lol), it's here http://quirkycraftingshmooglebean.blogspot.com.au/2012/03/easy-rainbow-layer-cake.html if you'd like it :o) Thankyou for the encouragement everyone!!
