Mission: Declutter and Organize - Accomplishments for 4/29/09

We surprisingly got quite a bit accomplished today... Though the vast majority of today's chores don't necessarily greatly alter the clutter in the photos.

• I did a ton of laundry. I started some of it the day before, but finished the job today. Just about everything was washed, dried, folded and put away. Considering that I typically slack off on the putting away part, this was huge! Laundry also included changing the bed sheets.
• The drawers that were sitting in the middle of my office looking like they didn't belong there with a bunch of crap on top of them got moved to a blank wall outside my bedroom door. My office has some floor space again!
• The counters on the stove side of the kitchen got wiped down, the stove top got wiped down (though the burners are still off), and the counter got somewhat organized by Matt. The fronts of the cabinets also got wiped down in the kitchen.
• The trash in all rooms got emptied and put into bags for Matt to bring out tomorrow.
• Straightened up the counters in the bathroom off of our bedroom.
• Cleaned the toilets in both bathrooms.

Goals for the rest of the week:

• Pay the bills.
• Clean off the kitchen table, purging and organizing the paper mess that lives there.
• Cleaning out coat closet and moving winter coats off of the accessible coat hangers to the closet.
• Straighten up the living room.
• Straighten up bedroom.
• Clean out bedroom closet.
• To go through my underwear drawer and throw out undies with holes.
