Bathrrrrrrrrrrrrooms

In Rural OK we had 2 bathrooms for 3 or 4 people and Moana complained "I have to wait!"  Now in Cucaracha-ville we have 3 bathrooms for 2 people and Moana complains "I have to clean all three????"  How do three bathrooms get so dirty?  We are 2015 people.  Why don't we have self-cleaning bathrooms?  The Jetsons lied.

This week in Flylady our zone is bathroom and one other room.  Well I'm cleaning 2 bathrooms and one other bathroom!  The goal is to go through these rooms and de-clutter 27 things at a time.  Remember my last post: do you love it, does it bring a smile to your face, have you used it in a year?  That is the de-cluttering method of cleaning and organizing your life.  So far I have cleaned Boy's bathroom.

Can we say "minimalist?"
Third bathroom: done!

Ain't she pretty??
And I'm still working on cleaning master bath so that is for a different post.

Now the program says keep de-cluttering till everything is something you love or something that puts a smile on your face or something that you use.

Looking at Boy's bathroom: There isn't much to look at, love--except maybe the tub and toilet and sink and the extra toilet papers stored in the chest. So yeah, we LOVE those things and we actually use them!  CHECK.

In my third bathroom, the same...sans the tub.  But everything in there is something that I added to get that look.

My job is to keep these rooms looking exactly as they are now while next week adding a new zone.  Does that make sense?  So, next month when the zone is bathroom again, my bathroom should still be clean and clutter free on the outside but then I'll tackle the cabinets and de-clutter those until Hallelujah all bathrooms are clutter-free on the inside and out!

The whole premise of the program is babysteps.  And isn't that just like weight loss?  The house didn't clutter itself.  Nope, that took years and years and many people doing that.  The same with weight.  It took years and years and many people living in my head to do that.  Although Moana will still be there, I am aware; just as I am aware of what I am putting in my mouth.

And.......

the sink is still shiny!

Yes! I am a new picture and not just the same one shown over and over!!!
The weekend is a hop, skip, and a jump away.  Have a great day, Grainiacs.
