Deliberately clean one thing (a room, drawer, shelf, etc.) for a month - it doesn't sound like a lofty goal, but I completely underestimated my hatred of cleaning. While I knew my aversion to chasing after dust bunnies was strong, I apparently didn't know its depths. (On the bright side, I gained a bit of personal insight this month.)
Despite my lack of enthusiasm I believe I cleaned at least one thing each day, but at times it seemed as if I was just attempting to keep the clutter from taking over. I had grandiose visions of cleaning out the office, mopping the floors each week, finally unpacking a couple of boxes that have sat on a shelf for the past 2.5 years. Unfortunately February looked more like a cycle of cleaning bathrooms, washing dishes, taking out the recycling, etc... and I still have a stack of insurance papers sitting on the piano (which needs a good dusting) from a meeting two weeks ago. Even though it wasn't that great of a month goal-wise, I think I'll return to this goal again later in the year...perhaps when I don't have so much school work to tie up my evenings and weekends.
Moving on to March's goal - write a letter (snail-mail style) to one person every day. The count so far:
3/1 - Tiffany
3/2 - Good News Cards from school to 4 students
