 I just picked up most of my living room :). Way to go! :D

Project #11

This is how the challenge of the day was listed:

Your project for today is to clean your bathroom(s).
You can follow this list, if you find it helpful:

• Set the timer for 20 minutes and put toilet cleaner in each of the toilet bowls and let it soak.
• Remove any items that don’t belong in the bathroom, put away items that need to be put away in the bathroom, empty the trash.
• Spray and wipe down the sink and tub.
• Finish swishing and cleaning the toilet.
• Shake the rugs outside (or throw them in the laundry) and mop or vacuum the floors.
• Wipe down the outside of the cupboards and clean the mirror.
• You’re done!

What did I do? Nothing out of the ordinary - just the regular bathroom cleaning. All the shelves and drawers are fine (or could use some organizing but nothing too bad), so it did not feel like a challenge :) Actually it feels like I have my very own drum beat anyway, so I keep myself entertained :)
