Ok here is how the list cleaning works you make a list and add it as a reply and every once and a while you check back in and check off what you have done! I will leave my list on for a couple of days to give you an idea of a list. Feel free to copy and paste then edit to your needs.

Reorganize:
I think I am going to rearrange my bedroom today. At least that is the goal. I am going to try to get Mimi's crib in here and see about getting her to sleep in it. Paul LOVED her sleeping in our bed but lately he has been yelling at her about it. So... maybe this will help. Somethings got to, he is so grouchy anymore.
Mimi's Room and the Guest Room:
Sweep
Mop
See about those three trash bags HE DID IT!!!
Which I found out isn't trash but everything that has been accumulating in the car. (from him and Mimi) However, I threw the stuff I swept up last time in there so,... gross. He gets really upset that he is the only one cleaning up the car (what a joke!). So, maybe this will help... probably not. But I am just about done with all his grouching. Someone will have to force feed him Danae's meds soon if he doesn't change. :(
Bathroom
Sweep
Mop
Sink
Toilet trying to put on a different toilet seat and don't know how!! :(
Stairs and Little Area
Sweep
You know there is something oddly comforting about making this list and crossing off everything. First, it is motivation to actually do these things. Some where to put everything I really need to do and then of course I would hate to not mark it off so it is accountability! Plus, it feels like my cleaning is at least some what valued or validated by being here and seeing everything I do do. Even if certain people are really hateful, mean, and downgrading about it! (Not in a good mood, can you tell?)
