This morning I cleaned the bathroom! That's the before shot of our counter. It's ALWAYS a mess. I blame the pile of pills.
That's the mess of pills. I have 4 prescriptions and 2 OTC's I'm "encouraged" to take. Plus vitamins and Lysine for my chronic canker sores. I HATE pills and look at this. Depressing.
So today, I cleaned off the counter, wipes it down and the sink, cleaned the shower and the toilet and cleaned off the mirror again. Then I organized everything. Here's the new counter.
My side it the right. Russ's is the left. There is a huge difference. haha.
From another angle:
So that pile of pills- organized. I moved a bunch of them- the like extra pills and ones I don't take every day to a bin in the cabinets under the sink.
It looks so much better. The reason I'm focusing on the counter is because I've already decided on my next daily task.
Do the dishes every night has made a big difference. Not only in the appearance of our kitchen, but also in my attitude and POV. I've learned that piling it up doesn't help one bit. It doesn't save me time, because it takes so much more time in the end. Washing a plate takes 2 seconds. Washing a plate that's been sitting around for a week takes 2 minutes. Times that plate by the 20 others that have sat around...well it's not pretty.
Anyway, so I wanted my next daily task to be wiping down the bathroom sink and counter every night. This part of the bathroom can get pretty gross. Dried toothpaste, soap scum, Russ's hair trimmings. It looks so nice today, I want to keep it that way. Next week is christmas, so it'll get a little crazy, but that shouldn't give me any excuse not to keep up with the good work I've been doing.
