I want to organize some closets (and get rid of stuff!) and mop the floors, as well as dust the blinds. These are things I'm awful at doing and I won't even mention how long it's been since these things have been done. The house as a whole is clean, but I've got to get on top of these few things.
-
Clean the outside up.
-
THE GARAGE!!!!!
-
Everything. Clean out the fridge, clean all 3 closets. We are also redecorating/finding all new organizing solutions for the entire house. I'm excited!
-
Everything previously mentioned are things I need to do. I'm not looking forward to any of it, but I do like having a clean, organized house, so it's worth it in the end.
-
@looch: Ugh yes, garage cleaning/organize is my nemesis!
We will need to do spring clean up in the yard (landscaper will do most of it, but DH needs to clean up our garden beds for this season).
I need to finish sorting our a few bags of clothes to donate too.
-
We just recently organized / purged the basement and garage. Now we need to concentrate on getting the outside cleaned up, being out all the patio furniture etc.
the office closet really need a good purging! -
@looch: crap I forgot about the garage. Add that to my list!
-
Umm, putting our house back together is tops on our list! We've had major renovation works going on the past few weeks (conservatory conversion with a wall breakthrough to make a large open plan kitchen/diner, brand new kitchen being built, new carpets in two of the bedrooms and the lounge, and new flooring in the entry hall), so our house is an absolute tip! Fortunately, we've been staying with the ILs whilst the work is going on but we should be back in our house next weekend, and then it is going to be one massive spring cleaning project to get it all put back together.
-
curtains, couch slipcover, deep clean downstairs closet, mop all floors and rearrange furniture for new baby!
-
Same as @looch: the garage! We don't even park in our garage and it's totally overrun by toys and outdoor things!
We really should go through our storage room too. Decluttering feels so good but is a lot of work.
-
garage as well to maximize storage space.
re-organize our clutter and paperwork that's slowly killing me.
sort and clean out our closets. -
The Garage
The Outside
Mop the floors/clean the carpets -
Hands & knees scrubbing the tile floor is first on the list--I don't know that the previous owner actually did that, like, ever. There is a kind of gross greasy sheen on the floors and the grout ranges from white to black. It probably would have been easier to do before we moved in, but oh well!! We plan on replacing the tile floor next year but ugh...they are so gross.
I also just want to get things organized and in place. I hate the process of moving somewhere new!!!
-
Organize the basement. It's become a catch all. Also organize my clothes and closet since I'm basically done breastfeeding.
-
Our cleaning lady keeps up with the indoors once a month. But I think we'd rather not pay the landscaping people to do a cleanup so we need to do that ourselves. There's a ton of sticks and leaves leftover from fall/winter.
-
I just need to purge my whole house. I want a minimalist life. Except, when you have kids, your whole house seems to be taken over by kids stuff.!
We already have a dumpster trip planned to get rid of some big stuff.
-
We've been working on cleaning out/organizing the garage/laundry room. And our bedroom needs a little facelift.
-
Our windows are disgusting.
Also dh didn't feel like picking up after the dog for the whole winter.....
-
Clean the windows and blinds, buy and hang new curtains, purge the crap I've been hoarding in the laundry room, and shred unnecessary old bills/sensitive documents. Oh, and get our deck all spruced up for BBQ season.
-
Everything???
Mainly - the garage, basement, outside, and windows. They all get neglected the most.
-
Everything, as we hope to list our house in the next few weeks. Will hire someone to deep clean and paying my stepson to work in the yard.
-
organize the drawers in my closet and desk; organize my china cabinet; clean out/organize DS's closet (including makibg the spage bags flat!); clean the baseboards.
-
On my list so far :
-Windows
-baseboards
-dusting fans/ceilings
-closets (purge)
-pulling out spring/summer clothes and organize them -
Making progress, slowly. (Hello, nesting!) We just had a housecleaner come and do a deep clean of the house (we hired them for regular bi-weekly cleaning, but the first cleaning had to be a deep clean they said).
Closet organization is an on-going process. I organized mine, DS' closet, and the soon to be baby's closet. And I organized our under-the-sink cabinets in the master bath. A huge bag of clothes went to Goodwill last week, but I still need to organize my dresser contents and DH's closet.
The hallway cabinets need to be reorganized - its a hodgepodge of linens, toiletries, random canned goods - its driving me nuts. I also have these random baskets filled with all sorts of junk and odds and ends that need to be sorted. Ugh, AND my kitchen cabinets and pantry need to be organized.
And the garage. Sigh.
OH and I need to get the carpets steamed before the baby gets here (aka before my in-laws come to visit).
And I have to nag DH to clean his office.
-
I want to steam clean the carpets and organize the closets.
-
I'd like to organize the closets, get rid of some of the baby stuff/clothes, and have the carpets cleaned.
-
Nothing inside, we just recently had an inspection and everything was ship shape. We need to tackle our backyard though. It's rough.
-
Power wash outside, wash windows and blinds, dust baseboards.
-
Already done: boys toy closet, storage closet, big purge of boys clothes.
Need to do: front closet, our bedroom closet, chemical/cleaning/tools shelf, replace shower liner.
Would like: replace all bath towels, finish lo3 nursery. -
@gingerbebe: how did you like your deep clean?
I'm pretty much at the point where I want to hire a deep clean one time and then feel better with a clean slate
our time is just so limited that it becomes overwhelming to me
-
I'm off tomorrow and I'm picking up the dog poop in the yard and working on getting stuff ready for a consignment sale at the end of April.
-
@Mrs. Pickles: Loved it. We have a single-story 3-bedroom plus den (so like a 4 bedroom), 2 bathrooms, and the stove/fridge needed a good cleaning. Took them 3 hours, I didn't have to dust/scrub the baseboards - so great. We're going to use them every 2 weeks from now on I think.
-
I need to majorly purge the girls' clothes....I keep putting it off waiting to see if #3 is a boy or girl (though in either case I should still clear out some stuff!)
