CLEAN. BAM.

Yesterday was a restless Saturday for me.  I was excited for the possibilities of the day, and the beautiful sun filled sky had me hit the ground running.  I woke up bright (well, actually it was still dark) and early at 4am.  WHO DOES THAT?!  And once I was awake, I was wiiiiide awake.  So, I decided to carp the Diem... or something like that. 

I walked the dog by 5, had my morning tea by 5:15, and was driving around with Potato riding shot gun, catching the beautiful Seattle sunrise by 6:30am.  I was dressed, focused, and in the mood to get shit done. 

When I got back from my sunrise drive, Tator and I took over the apartment.  We started in the kitchen, cleaned out all the cupboards, the fridge, and the drawers.  Wiped everything down, washed, and made that place sparkle.  Once the kitchen was 100% shine, we moved onto the bathroom, then the living room, then last the bedroom.  I scrubbed. I swept. I vacuumed.  I reorganized. I dusted. I threw out the clutter.  I mopped. I Windexed. Shoot, I even cleaned out all the closets! And let me tell you IT FELT GREAT!

I literally spent the ENTIRE day cleaning.  From the time the sun had raised until it was time to slip into my PJs. The only time I wasn't cleaning was when I took a break to plant my veggie seeds for my vegetable garden that will be blooming in spring.

Last night around 8 I decided to light an incense and a couple candles, turn on my sound scape music, and doze off peacefully in my sparkly clean apartment.  It felt sooo good to have everything clean and shiny when I woke up to another beautiful sunny morning.  I was bummed that I didn't get to do anything yesterday, and was even more bummed that I had to get up to work a 12 hour day today.  But it was rewarding knowing how much I got done yesterday.

Now, to just try and KEEP it clean...yeah right... :)
