    Red face I need to sign up for housecleaning bootcamp!

    Can you girls kick me back into tip top shape?
    My house is a royal mess!! The weird thing was that I started to actually LIKE living with it this weekend

    BUT since I'm expecting my pregnancy yoga tape to arrive this week, I can't have a messy house if I want to invite my neighbor over Plus I just should'nt let my house get this bad anyways! I mean it's not THAT bad but I normally don't let it stay this messy for so long!

    On the bright side I did clean ayla's room this weekend, so that's one thing out of the way
    Also the sofa cover is now clean too! (it had coke stains, licorice and oreo stains..it was gross!)

    But you guys, I can't feel alone when I say: The more I clean the messier my house seems to get Of course I am not going to let that stop me from trying to clean it

    You all can start to feel better about your homes. I have 2 guys hanging drywall in the bedroom. Everything from 1 of the bedrooms is in the dining room. The kitchen counter is (again) covered with tools. I can't get to the back porch to do laundry..... I look at it like road construction, the detours are a pain, but it its worth it after it's done.

    I've been doing some major decluttering. I was able to rearrange my living room and get rid of one of my round tables (with glass top and skirt). So now I only have to dust one end table and only have one skirt to wash. YIPPEE! Do you think you might need to declutter? If you have alot of stuff no matter how much you clean it will always look cluttered and messy.

    Oh Heather - I'm glad I'm not the only one! This week-end I spent a lot of time decluttering and organizing in one room - needless to say the rest of the house is a mess.....

    ~~~~~~~

    Well, there are several electric guitars I would loooove to 'declutter'

    But since I can't do that, I pulled out a whole bunch of clothes to donate tomorrow. Most of it was in storage so that will help me put away more things that are out

    Most of the mess tends to be her favorite stuffed animal/things she drags from the bathroom and bedroom/grocery ads/grocery lists/jackets/shoes/groceries/laundry/dh's snack wrappers/plates/cups stuff like that. We don't have a very big living area so it just makes it look very messy very quick

    Honey, we all need to go to housecleaning boot camp! At least I do. But, I don't know if that would even help me.
