Spring Cleaning Day 1

So today start's my Spring Cleaning. Have you ever been over to simplemom.net? Great blog and she is motivating us all to get on the spring cleaning band wagon!  

My tasks today
- Go through the entire living space of my apartment and pick up any rubbish. 
- Go back through the entire living space and see if I can get rid of anything - Do i love it? Do i need it? If i answer no to both then it goes.  (Thank goodness the dumpster is still outside ready for my junk and the bags to go to charity havent gone yet)

Do you want a before photo? I am a little embaressed at how bad this place has gotten since being back from Australia. We have too much stuff for this apartment. 

Just full of clutter and not a relaxing place to be. So off I go. Wont post any photos from my work today - not sure you will see the difference, but from tomorrow I will

Your apartment doesn't look too bad. You should see my basement/family room. Good luck with your cleaning.

Your place looks nice already! I think I'm envying your fridge! Have fun cleaning!

I agree, that doesn't look bad at all, but I can't wait to see the results:)

That's not a bad starting point! But there's just nothing like that feeling of neat spaces and lack of clutter!!

You will feel great when all the little papers and bits and pieces that have stacked up are all gone. I keep sitting in my bedroom and living room going "ahhhh..." it's so clean... and I haven't even gotten to the real cleaning yet!
