I Should Be Embarassed...

But to keep in the honest and realistic aspect of this blog, I'm not.

As I mentioned last week, the spring cleaning tornado has hit this Little Home and it is in full force. Since I work 4 ten hour shifts a week, am trying to plan a wedding, spend time with Big Man, Mia, and family and things of the such, I've had to break up my spring cleaning into sections that I can get done on the weekends.

While it was raining cats and dogs this past Saturday, I took advantage of being indoors and tackled two of our rooms, but before we get to that, here is what you would have found me in if you walked in my house this weekend. 

My bejeweled pink bandanna to keep my frizzy hair out of my face, striped spa socks to keep my tootsies warm and cozy, and sweats, because duh, what else would I clean in.  : ) You may ask (or not but I'll tell you anyway) why I didn't show the whole shebang and the truth is...I have a little self respect and didn't think it was appropriate to post a sweaty, gross face, braless Little Woman all over the interwebs....maybe next time...not!

Anywho, back to the cleaning....

I figured that if I was going to at this thing full steam that I miswell start in the messiest room, that being our lovely bedroom...

For those of you who thought I was better than this, I'm not. ; )

I wish I could say that this is a singular occurrence and that I hardly ever let my bedroom get to this state, but that would be a lie, and that is not what this bloggy relationship is based on. To be brutally honest, our bedroom looks like this more often than I would like to admit. 

As you can see, you cannot even see my bed under the piles of clothes, I'm almost 95% sure that the ones on the bed are clean...maybe. It was a disaster and needed to be rectified ASAP. Obviously the first order of business was to tackle the clothes but that was just one of many tasks.

Spring Cleaning 

Bedroom Edition

- Sort dirty and clean clothes

- Did laundry

- Rotate some winter and spring wear...I say some because it still gets pretty chilly up here

- Organize underwear drawer, finally threw away some of those torn up but couldn't depart undies and bras

- Tried to organize Big Man's side of the closet

- Organized jammies

- Organized and disposed of misc. jewelery

- Made bed

-Pulled out bed and Mia's crate to sweep underneath

- Dust all furniture

This was just the basic cleaning part but was necessary to get down to the nitty gritty stuff that I need to do in the coming weeks....

- Wash and replace sheets, comforter, and pillowcases

- Dust and wipe down ceiling fan

- Dust around radiators and baseboards

-Sweep (again) and mop floors

- Wash windows and window sills.

These we'll be accomplished in the next few weekends but here is a look at how my bedroom should look and what my floors and bed actually look like....

Sorry about the watermarks on the pictures, my bad.

Def. a major and better difference than the before picture...and yes I do still sleep with my Carebear pillow...everynight!

Nicely folded and hung clothes. I must admit though I hate dressers....they are pretty much the bane of my existence. I hate how fast they get messy and the constant need to fold and re-fold the clothes. Next house def. needs a walk in closet with lots of hanger space. 

That's all for this installment....next up: BATHROOM!

What are you doing for spring cleaning!?!
