Small Win #1

Today I Windexed the bathroom mirrors while my hair straightener was heating up.  I wasn't too thorough but it made a big difference.

This is the first tip I've discovered: if you keep the cleaning supplies in the room in which you're going to use them, you're more likely to use them.

Small Wins... No Wins

So it looks like I am slacking off after all.  I did empty the produce drawer today and wash it with soap.  I think that can count.

Here are some things I thought about doing - that's half the battle, isn't it?
- Take stuff off bathroom counters and wipe down.
- Clean bathroom mirrors.
- Make bed.

Making the bed is the #1 "small win" for me.  It pulls everything together and takes attention away from the piles of clothes or messy nightstand.  I can't bring myself to spend the one minute on it in the morning, though.  Maybe tomorrow...

Small Wins

Each day this week I will post a quick little thing I did to clean up the house.  To me, "small wins" are those things you usually neglect, but they take very little time, and make a big difference to how clean the room looks.  Here's hoping I don't slack off.
