Sneak Peek for the Week - March 14 - 20, 2010

Zone 3: Mission #1 Monday

Dear Friends:

For the Bathroom: Spend 15 minutes decluttering health and beauty aids! This means toss the old medicines, hair sprays, gels, shampoos, conditioners, old razors, old dried up nail polish, old cosmetics and anything else that is hanging around in your bathroom that you have not used in the past year!

Grab a trash bag and start tossing. Don't hold onto something because you "might" use it, or because you might need it, this is how clutter breeds (an also how bacteria breeds if you are holding onto old cosmetics, brushes or sponges)! Be brutal and toss, toss, toss.

I trust you all to make good decisions in disposing of these items. Recycle containers or packaging that can be recycled, if you are not sure how to dispose of certain medications - contact your local pharmacy or poison control center to get instructions for your specific medication.

When you complete this mission you will love how your bathroom feels, I know I use that sentence a lot for missions but it is so true! LOL!

For the Home Office: Set a timer for 5 minutes and clear off a hotspot!

Zone 3: Mission #2 Tuesday

Dear Friends:

We are headed into the bathroom this week. Let's grab some general purpose cleaner and shine those counter tops and shine our bathroom sinks! Clear everything off the counter top and wipe them from side to side and top to bottom. Then use a little elbow grease and scrub your sink, then spritz the counter top and sink with a little Windex to make it shine.

For the Home Office: Empty the wastebasket

Zone 3: Mission #3 Wednesday

Dear Friends,

When you go in your bathroom each morning do you have trouble seeing yourself in the mirror. Is your beautiful image blurred from the toothpaste splatters and water marks?

Grab your favorite window cleaner and let's bring a shine to the glass. This will only take a few short minutes!

For the Home Office: Clear off the desk or computer area of cans, glasses, dishes, trash etc. Set your timer for 5 minutes - I bet you have time left over!

Zone 3: Mission #4 Thursday

Dear Friends:

Today we are going to shine our tubs or showers! We have talked about shining our sinks since you started and we want you take 5 or 10 minutes to shine that tub or shower. Do not get obsessed with the tub being perfect. Just scrub the tub with whatever works. There is no perfect tub/shower cleaner or perfect way to do this. Shampoo on a wash cloth will work! Whatever or however you choose, anything is better then nothing, then spritz it with a little Windex and dry it with a towel like you shine your sink.

For the Home Office: Do you know where your income tax information is? Do you have a home for those receipts and records? Today establish a home even if it is just a manilla envelope taped to the wall!!

Zone 3: Mission #5 Friday

Dear Friends:

It is time to clear off the flat surfaces in the bathroom. This means the edge of the tub, the counter tops and the back of the toilets. We have a tendency to let things pile up on these areas and usually it is just clutter. Toss what you can toss and put away the rest! Those shampoo bottles, hair scrunchies and cosmetics. You know the stuff that I am speaking of! Have fun with this!

For the Home Office: If you have not done your 2009 taxes - gather up your paperwork today!! If you have done your taxes and have not filed your copies or burned a disc of your files from doing your taxes online - today is the day!
