Spring cleaning

So we FINALLY have a sunny, warm(ish) Saturday and I am determined to get my lazy butt off the couch and get this house cleaned up!!  I've banned DH to yard work, which he doesn't mind, so the house is mine for the day!

Anyone else putting mind over matter and willing themselves productive?

  • I may unpack a few more boxes from the babies room so we can actually set his room up.the operative word being may. It's half done now and I really just don't feel like touching any more boxes. I'm boxed out.

  • Being productive here too!
    I love purging the closets and putting away all the heavy winter wear. Making room for all those inevitable baby supplies. Just stopped to catch my breath for a few minutes before getting back to it. This counts as exercis

  • The warm sunny weather makes me productive too! It makes me motivated to spring clean!
  • I had to on the last nice day we had. We moved into our house almost a year ago, and STILL have boxes. SMH. We suck. So, yea, I've pretty much just been chucking the boxes in the trash. If we haven't needed it/used it in a year, we must not need it at all

  • Lol well I don't feel too bad. We have only been in the house 2 months.

  • I want to so so bad, I got an early start,now DD wants me on the couch to cuddle,which I love,but I know it will be hard to get motivated again!
  • We actually started spring cleaning a couple of weeks ago, but our progress has been halted for a while. I donated a ton of stuff a couple of weeks ago, but I haven't done much more since. However, we still have a lot of work to do!

  • Kind of the opposite for me. I am dying to get my house cleaned and sorted out. But hubby is still installing the new floors and I am still summoned to the bedroom until he is done!

  • We've been in our house for 9 months, and still have boxes to go through. I REALLY want to work on LO's room and put away the 5 huge bins of clothes my sister have us, but since his closet is full of our miscellaneous crap, I'm just sitting on the couch i

  • Yes!

    Forcing myself to finish cleaning out the nursery so MH can paint the room tomorrow. I'm sure right after I'm done I will pass out.

    I worked way too much this week and I already feel exhausted!

  • Ha!  Nope!  I am eating m&ms on the couch in the sun, watching baby kicks.  I'll shower eventually, and then perhaps wander outside to will the dead leaves off our patio before I leave for a gig around 2:30.

    Great idea. We did this a couple of weeks ago. I cleaned the house while my fiance did the garage. It actually kind of worked out perfectly, since we are moving, and our stuff is easier to pack up, move, and organize.
  • I spent an hour and a half this morning raking the yard and picking up dog poo. Not too exciting, but I'm happy with how it looks now! I'm about ready for a nap though..

  • We are painting the ceiling and priming the walls in DS' big boy room today!

    And before that we are EMPTYING the entire room. It's been a catch all room for junk since we moved in.
