I said on Instagram that this post was going to be published on Friday evening. But I just couldn't get it done by then so here it is now.
I've been wanting to clean up my house for the longest time now and that's either the fault of laziness or not knowing how to go about it. But this Friday I had the courage and a good idea which made me do quite a good amount of organizing.
Why My Home Got So Disorganized
Being an entrepreneur at home is a bit complicated because I get to use part of my space to store my goods. This can make things to be so messy when you don't have a lot of space and when you haven't decided on where and how to keep them.
And that's exactly how I found myself in this messy house.
My day started with a lovely breakfast made of bread egg and composed pap. I called it a presidential breakfast and it was delicious.
I didn't even know I was going to clean as much as I did. This is what the house looked like before I started.
For days now, I have been doing general cleaning and I started with my bedroom. I stopped when I got to the parlour because I didn't just know where to start or where to put what.
This Friday when my daughter was taken out for a stroll I was blessed with the idea to move a cupboard I previously moved to the room back to the parlour. Actually, it didn't fit where it was placed in the room despite my cutting it to fit (I didn't take the right measurement lol).
My aim here was to send the business stuff away from the parlour and leave just the few I use quite often.
So I found a suitable place for the cupboard I moved and moved the bags of goods elsewhere.
In the meantime, I washed and treated my hair. Well, it was Friday but I woke up thinking it was Saturday (Saturday is my spa day) that's why I started treating my hair. The natural hair products from Green Life Bate are doing really good on my hair so I don't want to miss an opportunity to use them to nourish my hair.
It was quite tough to put this part of the house in order but it was possible and it looked good. I started at about 10am and ended at about 7pm.
I couldn't finish organizing the whole parlour but I'm quite proud of the outcome of the side I did. The other side where there's the Tv still needs to be arranged and till today (Tuesday) it is the same. I'll find time to do that sometime soon.
My daughter has already made me displace a number of things in the cupboard because she won't stop touching them. This is one of the reasons why the organization takes time for me. I have to think of the safest and furthest place to keep things that are harmful to her or things that she can easily destroy.
While planning how to do the next part of the clean u and organization, here is how the first part of it went.
🙂 My secret for cleaning up a mess is cleaning it in portions; for example, cleaning one room daily instead of cleaning the entire house at one go.
