NaClYoHo, day...something

Raise your hand if you're surprised that I lost track of the days already...yeah. Me neither.

At any rate, mostly today I chilled out because Lord knows I needed it. I did clean up the kitchen from making chicken casserole last night and picked up the living room, which included putting some stuff that had been sitting out since I unpacked it several weeks ago away. Also, the kitchen cabinets are your basic builder grade wood cabinets without hardware. I keep forgetting which side has the hinges, which is annoying as hell, so I had bought some stick on cabinet pulls back when I moved in, but never put them on. They've just been floating around the counter. So I put those up. A small thing, but will probably make my life slightly less frustrating.

I'm waiting for documents from work so I spent 2h sorting out my books. So far, 8 books are going to the free library box and 15 will be sold. More than 20 books are leaving and that makes me happy. It's a small dent but it's something.

Still depressed AF and nothing gets really done here. Broke my salt lamp. The lamp I got to replace the old one was to big. Flipped over a wooden display, putt salt lamp in it and tada. Working lamp.

Oh no, 2 more lamps broke? And I'm broke as well?? Well then, here's a working Frankenstein lamp for ya made out of those two lamps.

How the rest of the house? Cluttered, dusty, depressing. Can I go now?

Reblogging since I got reminded that I made this and actually used it just now to clean off my nightstand. Trying to get back in the habit of doing little chores each day, especially now that I've moved back in with family.

Also if anyone is looking for a support group on FB, Team UFYH has a weekly comment thread to support cleaning as well as you can post specific questions.

FINALLY got a little rack* for storage in the laundry room! This area has annoyed me since we moved in last July/August. 😒 My back doesn't like reaching that high and that far away to get things off the shelf, and I don't want to overload it. And, I actually swept and mopped the floor before putting it in. 😁 Even wiped down the washer and dryer.

Took about an hour to put the rack together and then clean and reorganize. 🥳 Break time!

*The rack is a bathroom 3-shelf space saver but who says I can't use it anywhere I want! 🤩

The Great Unfuckening: planning post 2

So I have two days each week! Tuesdays and Fridays. Let’s see what I can think of for goals.

Week 1: Bathroom. Tuesday, wipe off easy surfaces and tidy up shelves/organization. Friday, clean the toilet.

Week 2: Bathroom again. Tuesday, the tub itself and shower walls. Friday, de-rust the shower rod and hang a new shower curtain.

Week 3: Bathroom (mostly) final. Tuesday, clean the steam mop. Friday, the bathroom floor.

Week 4: Kitchen. Tuesday, get the cleaning supplies re-hung and clean the stepstool. Friday, reorganize the shelves.

Week 5: Kitchen. Tuesday, fridge and sweep. Friday, deep floor clean.

Week 6: Main room. Tuesday, the computer desk. Friday, the smallish bedside table.

Week 7: Main room. Tuesday, dust bookshelves. Friday, organize the hallway bookshelf.

Week 8: Main room. Tuesday, start clearing off the big table. Friday, keep going on it. I think it’ll take a while. :)

Whew, that’s two months’ worth! I may have to change things up before I get to the end, if I discover other things that also need doing early in the process. And the above 8 weeks certainly don’t cover everything that I already know of, either. But it’s a jumping-off point, at least! And I have two goals for this week that DESPERATELY need to happen soon, so that’s the main thing. Let’s clean that toilet! :)

Woke up early this morning. Like 9 ish. After staying up almost all night. Sophia and I had cereal and she had chips too. Judge me idc. After eating I usually feel awake but today I was exhausted so I took Sophia in her room and fell asleep. Woke up around 1. Made sure sophia got her vitamin and cough medicine. She sounds fine today, not stuffy or runny. I can see in her face that she's sick still.

I decided to tackle dishes. I'm so ashamed of how messy I let this place get. I'm disgusted at myself and my behavior. I know I'm doing my best. And I know I'm working hard to break bad habits and push through my brain fog and exhaustion. But it still makes me sad. Sophia deserves better and shes the reason I'm trying so hard. Making before and after posts motivates me. I'm like, if I get this done itll make an awesome before and after. So. Without further ado.

Those trays need to soak. My sponge needs washed. I'm hungry and need a break. So this will be finished later. Fingers crossed.

Before and After

[misslucy21]

In the Continuing Voyages of the Salty Pirates, I have been somewhat productive today.

I ran up to Meijers to get refills for the drain snake thing so I could declog the bathtub and yarn for Christmas things. I remembered that I had a gift card from a return I made in the summer, so everything I got was "free", which is good because money is tight right now. Then I picked up the grocery order and got gas on the way home.

I put up the groceries and ran a load of dishes. I also unclogged the bathtub (said clog must predate my moving in because it was pretty big and my hair is too short to have accumulated that much since September. Ew.) and I was going to clean the tub while I was down there, but the all purpose cleaner wasn't hardy enough to tackle the soap scum and I paid attention in 7th grade science and know better to use bleach cleaner on top of anything else, so I just let it be.

I made eggs for burritos and pulled out chicken from the freezer to defrost for making chicken casserole. I also unloaded the dishwasher and reloaded it (washing larger items- it's a small dishwasher). I put some boxes in the garage, and I wrestled the cover onto the weighted blanket. Then I stripped the bed and changed the sheets. At which point, I needed to lie down after wrestling both weighted blankets (I use the 25 lbs one as a body pillow. The other one is 15 lbs). I still need to flip laundry and put away stuff and do more cooking, but that might wait for tomorrow.

I started a big unf*ckening of our bedroom cupboard. It's mostly books, magazines, cables, diy stuff, jewelry, cards, papers, USB keys, and other stuff like that.

So far, I've dealt with the two shelves of books. Around ten books are leaving us, either to be donated or sold. I also trashed old school papers.

I am now waiting for the boyfriend to wake up from his nap to continue with my diy mess and jewelry. A lot of beads, fimo projects, pompoms and others. Since I have to put what was in a drawer in the living room as well on this shelf, it will probably require a lot of sacrifice. But it's needed.

Tried not only to reorganize my super super tiny closet. And not only reorganizing but also using a completely different system with colored boxes with labels attached indicating the clothing items in it (since ALL my clothesare black abd my closet has no light, it gets very messy pretty quick!) . Looks very need right?

[sunmontuewrites]

This was VERY satisfying...

The Husband and I share this coffee table (it is between our recliners) but it's mostly my clutter 🤪 Less than 10 minutes to unfuck it.
