Cluttered CorkBoard

I hope that you had a great weekend..
mine honestly seemed like a pretty long one.

My fur-babies were having something going on Friday morning, so I got them in
to our Vet.   Our Veterinarian said the outdoors is like a Petri dish right now with
the weather we have had and they have been seeing a lot of stuff going on.

Even though they aren't outside very often they do like to check stuff out while
taking walks and all, so I spent the weekend keeping a closer watch over them,
changing up their food to a special diet, giving them their meds etc.
A lot of just hanging out.




They are both feeling so much better! (and I am thankful)

So I thought this was the perfect time for some """"Monday Motivation!""""
A major lack of sleep the past few days.. I know 
that I could certainly use it, and another cup of coffee or two or.. well, you get the idea. lol.

Let's get this week off to a great start!

I have been working on some deeper cleaning lately, from going through closets
and getting rid of clutter to the elbow grease kind of cleaning.
I decided to try out a 'new to me' wood cleaner and I am really happy with it so far.
Plus it is a nice switch from the Lemon scent we are all familiar with, 😉
nothing against lemon.
Sometimes it is just nice to not have that 'someone 
has been cleaning' kind of lemon smell. lol. 



I worked on the everyday cleaning,  used the wood cleaner to wipe down and dust several wood furniture pieces, swept/mopped the kitchen floor, deep cleaned the carpet,
and cleaned off/wiped down my computer desk.





(coffee cup rings! Ugh, anyone else have that at their desk fairly often..? lol)

I have had this carpet cleaner for 3 years now and have been very happy with it.
It is a beast.. and I wish it didn't take up so much space, but I just put it in the
spare room closet and that works and I think it does a really good job.




The wood cleaner I tried is almond scent.. and I don't really know how to describe
it except it is a nice light scent.  I feel like it did a good job and also left a nice light
shine on the furniture as well, which I have been noticing "the clean sheen" on the
furniture.   (if that makes sense) lol. 




I buy most of my cleaning products, laundry soap, etc.  from Grove Co.
I am trying to change to more natural products and while several of the products they carry
are available in stores, it just makes more sense and is more convenient for me to order
online.

I purchased a spin mop a few months ago and seriously wonder why I waited so long to
get one.  I like that I can change the mop heads without having to replace anything
else, but I really like that it doesn't leave the floors soaking wet so they dry much faster,
and it is especially nice on the wood floors.






I feel like I got a lot done and can check a lot of things off my to do list.
I still have several things I want to get done but for right now I am going to focus on the positive and
all the things I did get accomplished.

Clean kitchen.. clean floors.. clean desk.. and quite a bit of furniture dusted!
I think I will let that soak in for a minute or two and enjoy the moment (and my coffee). lol.


I hope that this post gives some motivation to tackle the chores that are ahead of you today,
whatever they are - you got this!


I have also been working on a Amazon Favorites page which includes cleaning
items as well as other items for the home.   It can be seen here if interested.
(sharing some of my top picks that I have purchased/use, or have used)


Hope you have a great week!
Blessings,
