[Apartment] Bedroom Cleaning Update
I am damn proud of the progress I have made in getting my bedroom clean for the first time since I moved in. I have been frustrated about it in the past but never really had the motivation, drive, ambition and follow-through to do it until now. I think mainly work was an excuse but now since my old boss was an idiot and a corporate tool I no longer have the excuse.
Anyways, I have gotten a lot of stuff cleaned up between the foot of my bed and the closet doors. That area has not been visible with the exception of a strip of carpet for over a year which is pathetic. A lot of the mess was shit stacked up with dirty laundry mashed in between them. I have loads of laundry ready to go for almost everything. A few more pairs of socks and the whites load will be complete.
I have hit somewhat of a snag though which I will work through tomorrow. I cannot do laundry until both dressers are ready and I have to clean out the one my grandmother gave me when I first moved in which now sits in the closet and I want to move the one I inherited from my late great aunt but that has my old 20" TV sitting on it right now.
Tomorrow I also plan to clean off my workstation area so I can get the stuff out of there, redo how I have my plugs and such, and have it ready for me to actually sit down and clean off the drives and reformat. I also have to clear a plot to set the mattress, box spring, and bed frame off to the side so I can clean up the stuff that has gotten kicked under the bed over time. Once that area is done I can move the dresser and filing cabinet and then I can unleash the floodgates on about five loads of laundry I have.
My goal is to have a little study area away from the bed, workstation, and TV where I can have my psychology books and such. That area will be where I read my papers, textbooks, etc. That will be the first step in getting high level of discipline I need in order to do the work load graduate school will require of me. Unfortunately I will have to make use of the laptop during this time so I will have to not have things like IM programs running and only use Firefox as needed. Otherwise it is just Word and maybe Rhapsody if I wanted to use it.
Anyways, I am going to wrap up this entry and then do a little bit more work sorting before I call it a night. It's Wednesday so that means new episodes of America's Next Top Model, South Park, and Drawn Together are on and I want to enjoy them with the pizza I will be making.
