I'll join ya! I have much more to do than your list so I'll probably be checking in way past when you're done

Here's what I've done so far (I've been busting my butt for an hour and it seems like I'm treading water, but it looks good)

Spring cleaning my bathroom:
-cleaned & organized shelf in laundry closet
-cleaned off mass of mess on top of dryer
-scrubbed outside of washer/dryer
-sort through/toss/organize cleaning aids
-clean under bathroom sink
-wash mirror
-wipe down above sink light fixtures
-scrub sink
-scrub toilet
-scrub floor around toilet/sink (men need to improve their bathroom hygiene! ack!)
-switch load of laundry
-fold load in dryer

I guess I did more than I thought I did. I threw away 4 walmart bags of trash and I haven't even hit the linen closet yet.

Here's an overview of what I need to do today:
Laundry (2 loads plus bed linens & pillows)
Bathroom - scrub sink, toilet, tub, floor
Linen closet - declutter, organize
Laundry closet - declutter, organize
wash dishes
vacuum house
kitchen - scrub sink, counters, stove, fridge, floor
living room - straighten, dust, wipe ceiling fan, toys in DS's room
declutter/organize two tubs of papers/books, etc
dryclean treatment on bedspread
strip/wash bed linens; remake beds in evening
declutter/organize cooking magazines
put away groceries
straighten bedrooms

*I'll check back in at 1pm - gonna go clean for a half hour before naptime.

I want a cleaning buddy -- but I think I missed you guys!

But if anyone else wants to start ... I'm going to start in about 5 minutes which will be 11 a.m. West Coast time. I'll check in at 11:30!

I'm working on the kitchen and I hardly got anything accomplished that first 30 minutes. I guess I did get the dishes put away and figured out what I wanted to do. So that is something.

So my goal for the next 30 minutes is to go through the cabinets -- purging, cleaning and organizing. It's spring!! I also want to clean the frig out, wash some walls and floor! I'll let you know how far I get on next check in!!

I'm in too! I've been cleaning my kitchen for a couple hours. I'm cleaning out all the cupboards, wiping them down in and out and will then do the floor.

I have a list for the whole house but that will be it for today. I will do one major project/room a day until it is done. I have to work Monday and Thursday in the office so I'll probably skip anything major those days but I'm hoping to work through most of the house (the downstairs and the kids bedrooms at least) before my family comes for Easter Sunday dinner.

Is anyone else in for the long haul? I'll keep checking back to share my progress and see how everyone is doing.

Back to work!!!

It's good to know I'm not alone!!

With that I have an angry 8 month old and I think he needs a nap. I'm going to try to put him down but I will check back in!

I've gotten two of my four upper cabinets done.

I'm also tossing some expired food and starting a bag for the food bank of non-expired food that I just am not using.
