    Cleaning the Small Spaces

    February 27, 2012 |

    Hope you’re doing well with your progress on the 40 bags in 40 days! I was feeling a bit under the weather this weekend, so I broke from my schedule, and chipped away at a few small spaces when I was feeling up to it.

    When I cleaned my dresser, a lot of the things that needed to go somewhere else were shoved on top of my dresser. A lot of the things I didn’t have a place for. Those went into the garbage or in my bag! Sorry I didn’t make my bed, Adam fell asleep while I was working. 🙂

    I moved the kids’ DVDs into a former junk drawer so Ben can’t take them out of our entertainment center.

    I also tackled my medicine cabinet

      I cleaned my bedroom dresser and the cabinet in the bathroom! It was necessary! Thanks for the post! I decided to check out the small places because of it! Greetings, Mill Hill Carpet Cleaners Ltd.
