Busy Bee

I've got the case of the cleanies! So I've been busy as a bee over here.

Thanks to my lovely friend Kristine I found a blog that has a spring cleaning challenge, take a look here: http://moneysavingmom.com/tag/4-weeks-to-a-more-organized-home
I started the challenge today so I'm on day 1 assignment, I feel pretty good with what I accomplished.

Here is my 'new' morning routine:
Yoga
Shower
Coffee/tea & breakfast
Clean the dang litter box (ew)
get dressed

Pretty easy. Since I work from home I find that most days I stay in my pajamas, but I enjoyed getting dressed today. It was fun picking an outfit that doesn't involve stretchy pants, haha. I was also so proud of myself for getting up early and fitting a short yoga sesh. Felt so good and I'm looking forward to this again tomorrow!

So my week goals: 5 - 10
  1. Do 1 creative thing a day
  2. Do 1 active thing a day
  3. Do 1 spring cleaning from here (a day): http://www.finelyground.net/2012/03/one-day-challenge-spring-cleaning.html
  4. Finish 1 crafty project a week
  5. Finish 1 house project a week (with Ben)
  6. Read a little

So this was way too ambitious, especially with all the do 1 per day items above. Here is how I fared:
  1. This blog post is my one creative thing. I was hoping to do something else like knitting or friendship bracelets, oh well.
  2. I went to San Francisco for a meeting, so I'll count that as my active thing. I really wanted to make it back in time for a walk with the fam, darn!
  3. I did not do a spring cleaning task from above, tomorrow
  4. I hope I can finish a crafty project this week, I still need to pick one...
  5. For our house project this week I think we will work on the living room or do something in the yard. Last week we rearranged the kitchen.
  6. I didn't read :(
I did spend 15 min (more than that) picking up our main living areas; the kitchen and living room. So its ready for some coffee making tomorrow! Whoop.
I also cleaned out my purse = easy peasy


Here is the only picture I was able to capture of today, my outfit. Sorry for the quality, its a camera phone.

  1. Woot! Way to go, Mama! I'm doing "okay" with the challenges, but with Birch home this week things have been in upheaval! And ick... taxes. :) I told Birch 'bout the baseboards. He laughed and said, "But we can't even SEE any of them!" That one was skipped... Love you, you sexy-boots lady.
