March's resolution

I tend to not keep an organized house. Dishes piled in the sink even though I have a dishwasher, clothes in the bathroom, clothes in the bedroom, papers everywhere. I came to the realization that it kind of gets on my fiancé's nerves. He's quiet about those sorts of things so it's not so amazing it's taken me this long to realize this.

So I decided. Because I feel better with a clean house and because I can get more work done with a clean house and because I care how my fiancé feels, I have vowed that for a whole month, A WHOLE MONTH, I will immediately put my clothes away, immediately put the dishes away, immediately do laundry when the baskets are full, etc. Ya know, general upkeep that I should be doing anyway.

I've had one day to practice this and so far so good. It actually felt weird to fold my pj's up and put them back in the dresser. Usually I just leave them on the floor for easy access when I get ready for bed again. It's kind of like making the bed...why make it up when you're just going to mess it up again?

So wish me luck. I hope it sticks because I'm tired of these bad habits that make me feel crappy.

I also vowed to read a chapter per day in my book. I just can't get through it and this is my second crack at it. Why can't I just move on to a different book? Because that's just not how Nicole works.
