What's on your Spring cleaning list?

[briggsy's girl]

Ooooh I'm feeling accomplished! Half of what others have listed we've managed to get done over winter (winter doldrums make me neeeeed to clean. Spring coming means outside and fix up the vegie patch!)

Stuff we've done -
- sorted and donated dd's stuff from babyhood, apart from what furniture we will sell
- sorted study and all paperwork is put away
- sorted spare room. No longer the dumping ground, its now "the library" and (neat) storage room for Lego/playdoh/games
- sorted much of the garage. Still needs some work, but will get there eventually. Dh struggles to let go of stuff from his dad/grandfather so I am being more lenient on clutter than I want to be
- tidied up the rumpus/bar. Not too bad on there though
- sorted all the kitchen cupboards, took all the inherited Tupperware that was damaged for exchange (and got all new stuff for 40 year old stuff -score!)

Still to do
- wash windows and fly screens
- sort out walk in robe (currently on hold while landlord gets ensuite fixed as its leaking into wir and I don't want to go messing with stuff
- shampoo carpets
- sell rest of dds baby furniture
- garden (prune small hedge out the front, finish weeding vegie patch, plant vegie seeds)
- disassemble water feature (stupid cat killed my fish so I've lost all desire to run it any more!)

Oh wow bg I am impressed! This weekend looks sunny and dry and perfect for organising the shed and doing windows. I'm going to go buy one of those window squeegee thingies (pg brain) in preparation.

Don't be impressed. It was out of necessity! Got an ikea book case very cheap and had to make room - and once you start it has a flow on effect lol

All the things.

And the garage.

So much stuff to do - zero motivation or energy.

I do have to organise my pantry again too, it was all pretty a few weeks ago, but I've been busy and just getting stuff out and chucking it wherever so I really have to pull my finger out and get back in there. I want some spice racks. Like, really really want some.

Hopefully we move into our house this spring. Which means a top to bottom clean and a good chance to throw out everything I should have ditched when i packed.

I too have hoarding tendencies. Something my DH is complete opposite of so it works well for us. He tells me what to throw out!

I'm the same! I've been "decluttering" forever. I just don't know what to do with anything. My time is extremely limited. DH is no help. As for spring cleaning - I don't clean lol. Lucky my DH is a cleaner. I tidy/declutter. DH cleans. He doesn't do spring cleaning though. He just cleans whatever whenever he gets annoyed with it. He did our rug & carpets a couple weeks ago & DD has already done number 2's on the rug & number 1's on the carpet :/ Why bother lol.

This morning I've rearranged the lounge room. Moved all the couches around to now allow light through the floor to ceiling windows that we put couches in front of in winter to reduce some heat loss.

Vacuumed and cleaned both couches as well - we live in an old house that accumulates lots of dust.

We recently rearranged the twins room - out of necessity as one has now moved into a BIG bed from a toddler bed, and once the other is ready to move up to a big bed we will have to rearrange again.

The play room was also done recently as we got given a second hand lounge suite for the kids.

So I suppose my next thing will be going through all the wardrobes and clearing out unused/grown out of clothes and rearranging to get all the warmer weather clothes out and pack up all the thick winter woollies
