A reflective start to this year, looking back rather than ahead at the moment. Need a bit of self belief!
1. Despite a lot of work tidying up the house last year, I felt by the end of 2013 that we were no further on. However, a couple of days spent tidying and sorting things out proved that the house is in a far better state than ever before.
J's room - totally blitzed in Oct half term. Now everything has a place and everything is in its place. There was even room to put away all the Christmas toys.
Our room - all my clothes sorted, too small things packed away, still need to do the top of the dresser and the top of my wardrobe (some of which will go into the loft)
Landing - now has a bookcase which actually isn't full! Blanket chest emptied, sorted. Have an up and down basket system to stop the never ending clutter on the side.
Loft - completely sorted through and everything boxed and labelled. It is only tiny as it's a dormer bungalow. Now contains Christmas stuff, suitcases, memorabilia.
Bathroom - stayed tidy all year, even the cupboard. Now awaiting a fresh coat of paint and a couple of things hanging on the walls.
Study. Let's not go there!!
Hall and stairs - all coats sorted, stairs clear, awaiting some things hanging on the wall.
Lounge - superficially tidy, although I am intending to go through all the drawers and cupboards this year.
Dining room - furniture moved to make better use of the room. Table clear and usable. All drawers and cupboards sorted, as well as the display cabinet.
Kitchen - all cupboards relatively tidy still, I have one junk drawer and one breakfast bar to sort out properly and find homes for things.
Utility room - work in progress. Awaiting garage sort out to get some stuff up the loft, but I have sorted out the shoe rack!
Downstairs loo - tidy
Garage - aaaarrrrgggghhhhh.
After that epic, I'd better make any further numbers into new posts!
