Today, I cleaned the fridge

[Anordinarymum]

yes I really did !

I pulled it out and cleaned behind, and it was bad.. my bad.

I emptied it and bleached everything including the food, and have just put everything in it and pushed it back and arranged all the fridge magnets and children's drawings and I feel amazing.

I sent a small video to my bloke hard at work.... which he appreciated no end. I do believe he is showing our fridge to his colleagues right now (NOT)

Tomorrow I will clean out one kitchen cupboard because I am fab. I am Woman and I can do this.

Anybody else do anything truly wonderful and worthy of note today ?

Join the smug club.:)

I have a very big cupboard and no sugar
The very long haired dog needs to be brushed
And dh is home after an operation

I sorted out my underwear drawers and threw away anything past it's best. Now I keep opening the drawers and gazing in pleasure at how tidy and organised everything is.

No no no... what you do is - sort everything out and wear what you don't want and then throw it ..

..Always thinking :)

And today the larder cupboards are getting 'the treatment'

I am no techy but I will try for before and after pics

No no no... what you do is - sort everything out and wear what you don't want and then throw it .
Like wearing old clothes the day before you go on holiday, then throwing them instead of washing them.

I like the way you think! Will use the wear-then-throw strategy in future.
I haven’t got around to tidying the hall and kitchen dumping grounds yet, but I’ve cleaned all the handprints of the paintwork downstairs. I’m going to do the stairs and landing once I’ve done the school run.

I wish I could motivate my lazy arse into action. I need to defrost my fridge as the ice is eating into everything at the back (there is no ice compartment in it, just an undercounter fridge). I also need to sort out my cupboards. I have honestly intended to do it for the last few days, but I feel so down I cannot get the oomph to get an do anything, even bathing is a struggle, plus I'm so tired I can't even think straight.

Need some top motivation tips.

cleaned my French windows in my dining room.

Last done abotu a year ago and about a week aferwards, someone smeared a wet smeary patch all over the outside (it may have been the dog)
For a year I have been looking at it and thinking - I must deal with that.

Today I did it. It took presicely 5 minutes

Next stop lounge windows, which look fine until about 4 pm when the sun shines in and then they look filthy.

Insides get done, but outsides are such a pain. I need the step ladder...

I excelled myself last weekend so I can’t do anything much more too soon. I wouldn’t want anyone to think that I am on a roll or anything, as there is only one way to go from there and it isn’t up.

Last weekend, I sorted out two drawers in the bathroom vanity unit and the cupboard that is under the sink in there. It still looks immaculate, which is a big achievement. I also sorted out and organised the kitchen cupboard under the sink which is now worthy of featuring in The Home Edit’s Instagram account.

I am still dining out on this and will do for a while.

I have cleaned the kitchen again

I have to get it all immaculate by Saturday. DH has been away from 2 weeks and I’d like to give the impression that I am naturally tidy and so the house’s previous/ current state is not down to me . I’m hoping he will magically become motivated by this into keeping on top of things...

@WellTidy. I sorted out the sink cupboard last week, as we had the plumber coming to deal with the kitchen tap. Now I know where everything is!

I have plans for A cupboard tomorrow.....

I just have to decide which one... 🤔🤔🤔

Well, I sorted the dumping grounds in the kitchen and hall. The walls will have to wait as I can find magic erasers anywhere and my last one disintegrated. He’d better notice...

Oh, and I tidied the wires behind the TV too Now

I sorted out the wardrobes have managed to get two bags fall for the charity shop, then as I’m on a roll did the bed side drawers!! Going to do the chest of drawers tomorrow fold them like that Marie Kondo

I actually did tidy my sock drawer AND paired them up along with throwing the odd ones out.

I am feeling very smug as I don't have to bother cleaning the manky fridge or the frankly disgusting and health-hazardous cooker as they are both outside in a skip and the kitchen fitters will be installing sparkly new ones.

In terms of things I've actually achieved today to be smug about... Ummm.... I used the extra long hoover attachment to to get rid of all the hard-to-reach cobwebs on the ceiling. Oh and I started knitting a lovely pair of sicks for my MIL.

Yay - do it! I thought I'd soon fall off the Kondo folding waggon, but no, it's for keeps. So much easier to get out what you want to wear without rummaging and creasing stuff!

Cleaned behind the cooker!! 😩

We had a new one delivered and I wanted to see how bad it was. Where does all that "stuff" come from? We are clean people!!!

Looks like it's now going to be a thing regularly cleaning behind that. Shall add that to the same list as cleaning behind the chairs and settee. Oh what fun!

@lazylinguist
I'm sure she will appreciate her lovely new pair of sicks 🤭

I did the kitchen cupboards today. I actually threw things away. Yay!

I like your style. It looks colour co-ordinated too :)

Well, my de cluttered bits remain de cluttered. But I still can’t be bothered hoovering. There’s just No sense of accomplishment with that!

Well done to everyone with more lasting motivation than me!
