Cleaning Challenge: Baby Steps 2!

 
 

First, let me recap what happened last week. I failed. MISERABLY. I didn't clean the bathroom or scrub the walls. We sort of cleaned the floors, at least Mr. LL did, but not to the extent I was imagining. Sigh. I also didn't make the bed a couple of days. Didn't put away the laundry a couple of days. Didn't do the 15-minute pick-ups either. Basically, at the end of last week I was just lethargic and apathetic about everything. But, these ebbs and flows happen and I'm not going to let it stop me from getting back on the cleaning wagon!

So, I'm going to get back to doing the three daily tasks I already started doing (and had a set back with) but now I'm going to give myself some new challenges! Let's see how that goes.


WEEK ONE: Shower more. I think it's pretty obvious that I am a lazy individual, and my personal hygiene habits are not the best. I shower regularly, but I'm not adverse to missing a few because "I just don't feel like it." I just need to remind myself that taking hair washing out of the equation is TOTALLY an option. That's the main culprit in making me put my lazy pants on. The other is state of the tub after Mr. LL gets to it. So, I'll have to figure that one out since I didn't get around to deep cleaning the bathroom last month. Anyway, to break it down I'm going to shower every other day, WITHOUT FAIL for a week. I can do this.

• Week Two: Change the sheets every week.

• Week Three: ?
• Week Four: ?

July Instagram Challenge /// #lazylady

 
 

Here is the list for July's Instagram challenge! I saw a few new posters in June! Yay! I hope you'll enjoy this month's challenge and post with me!

I've been thinking about it, and I think I'm going to streamline the hashtags from here on out with the challenges. Every month the hashtag will be #lazylady, just to simplify the whole process.

Happy posting!
