When they show up 19th, the guitars and bike will be out of the way, and the living room table will be nice and empty. Enough space for the movers to just dump it all there. I can deal with it the rest of the summer (ugh)

You're right, finally no more couch (fuck you ex wife) and I haven't had a tv in years (i got 5k imac, tf do i need a tv for)
With some stuff from the farm I will replace my old chairs (not in pic) with new ones for the living room table. And more stuff will be in their place. Eventually I will figure out what to do about a new tv (after 15 years?) and maybe a new couch (probably a 2 seater so i can sit comfy with my fat ass on it and play guitar, or a bigegr one so i can sleep on it too.
There will be things that go to the balcony too, the cover is there and seems to be holding up, next will be balcony chairs and table and then i will try to find an affordable outdoors-rug

Nice work!! Maybe I should get up again..

I cleaned the floor again, and moved things around, finished dishes, etc. I've handled groceries, and did some Discord tasks.

It's time to move things around. I have to dust some stuff

Someone was so fun to remind me to wash my windows. I checked, .. they .. need .. cleaning. OH snap.

- So far for today I woke up, had coffee, went through msgs, and updated Minecraft servers.

- Emptied out the dishwasher and gathered up new trash. I have 2 bags that need to get thrown out and i am down to 2 boxes filled with smaller boxes that need to get thrown out.

I've got out the fridge drawer to clean, so that's going to be done after my cuppa, then I'll actually put the veg box stuff in the fridge instead of what I normally do, which is just leave it in the box! I'll put the washing up away and while washing out the drawer do some of the washing up too.
I'll put the washing machine on to spin as I forget last night to take the clothes out of the machine, and then get that out to dry.

Take what you can out of it first!
Yeah, I do it before I order groceries, so it's basically all empty. I don't have 500 herbs and pots of sauces etc.

Anyway; update, i just did 70% of the kitchen sink area and had enough for dishes, so did the pots and pans and started dishwasher as well.

Gathered up the stuff for the laundry so that's at least in 1 place again now.

I am now "caught up", now I can focus on doing something that has to get done, like clean the toilet area

Not just food, but if you can take out drawers or shelves it makes it easier
Oh yeah, of course, sorry.. that was a given. I remove the glass layers and containers and everything if not only for easier access.

Any particular cleaning things that are smart to use for a fridge? I wipe off all the sides except the back if the water is frozen. I move the pricker in the hole thingy in the bottom, and if there's ice build up there i remove it. If there's water build up on the bottom i remove that (but almost never happens). The glass layers, i use a spray that isn't super unhealthy. and scrub a bit, then rinse under running water and then dry off. The plastic containers I dont use the spray on since foods rest in it without packaging (like a fruit or whatever). I use a soft scrubber to scrub, and then rinse it and dry and put it back.

But i dunno what cleaning stuff to use etc, i just use what i have sometimes lol.

I just use washing up liquid and then antibacterial spray.



I've done nothing today as had a friend round for an unexpectedly long visit. Now waiting for others to finish work and have coffee!

Tomorrow I have lots to do again.

Last update for today

Cleaned few machines in the kitchen.

Finished dishes, and tidied up some stuff.

Cleaned a bit more in the living room, yay.

Made food for 2 days.

Had coffee :D and a chat with nix

Reorganized some electronics and their wires.

Charged my electric toothbrush lol

And I should charge my beard trimmer, maybe ill shave tomorrow haha

Worked a bit on minecraft, fixed an issue on the forums, did some discord things.

Played a bit of minecraft and cs go, and talked to someone about what to do tomorrow.

Living room table is completely empty now, and charge things are on it, it's rotated so there' more room in the place here now.

I am technically done now. I just have to keep at it each day and do the toilet area etc.

I have tried my best to relax and chill and get extra sleep hours. I just wake up with headaches and feeling depressed. Meh.

I will try my best to upkeep everything so I don't fall behind, maybe throw the trash out to avoid little bugs etc. But can't promise while it's daylight to do extra.

Kitchen is a mess, the rest of the place isnt too bad, got clothes to put away, but it could be worse. Day off tomorrow so I'll get most of it done then, might do a load of washing up this morning, but not going to attempt too much.

Kitchen was clean, and now it's a mess, AARGH, it gets bad SO QUICK, and it's just me !! THE FUCK

Sigh, I am going on a hunger strike.

That way I save money, lose weight, keep things clean. And I probably sleep more.

*cries in adulting*

Sunday I have to plan and work on upkeep, and tidy up, the 19th is coming in fast, I have 16th, 17th, and 18th left. So 2 real days with no break to finalize kitchen, toilet, hallway, and living room area. But at least it's okay enough that i dont have to panic. Thanks to your all motivation and this thread.

Definitely feeling this! And I haven't even cleaned the kitchen yet!

Cleaning the kitchen is todays main job. Reorganising under the sink cupboard is art of that so I can go get the airfryer from my dads.
Rubbish and recycling need to go out,
Laundry

Edited that for you :p

Yeah Washing up is on list, I'm slowly getting through it though.

Sorting out the cupboards is on it too, fed up of not being able to find what I want in there!

Quite the list, and yes, we're all doing great and making progress. :)

Today I've started scrubbing the bath/toilet rooms and kitchen.

Trash is all sorted out, I got few bin liners I have to throw out again. Where is this crap coming from lol

I kept up with most things. And today I checked the plants for little bugs and flies, I couldn't find any. They got water again and I moved them around the apartment a bit to make it look more cozy
