Challenge Day 4

Today is day 4 of the challenge and I've noticed a little problem with this already.  I'm on day 4 and though it's technically been 6 or 7 days since the beginning of the challenge, the work I did on day 1 is already undone.

Does my house get messier faster than normal?  I don't know.  What I do know is that perhaps this challenge isn't so wonderful at all.  Never the less, I shall push on.

Here's what the challenge held in store for today:

Clean the Living Room:

•  Place decorative pillows on the clothesline to air out and kill dustmites
• Wash throw rugs
• Dust all units in the room including TV unit, display cabinet, coffee tables, etc.
• Remove all DVD's, CD's, etc. and give DVD players a good cleaning
• Reconsider the amount of decorations on display
• Dust picture frames
• Wipe remote controls
• Clean light fittings
• Spot clean couch
• Vacuum couch
• Roll up rug and vacuum underneath

Declutter:

• Magazine collection

Organize:

• Pamper yourself  

New Habit:

• Say NO!

Just 5 Minutes:

• Clean windows in main area of your home

So, how did I do?  I think I did pretty darn good.  I don't have throw pillows or throw rugs, so that's no big deal and my couch is made of microfiber, so I routinely take the covers off the cushions and throw them in the washer.  I don't have a magazine collection, and I'll pamper myself another time.  I clearly have no problem saying no, since I didn't do everything on the list.  Done!
