I’m pretty sure I rolled my eyes when I wrote my very confident we can do 31 Days To Clean over the holidays post. I knew then that I wouldn’t succeed. I have trouble finishing anything, especially if it involves cleaning, or can’t be done all in one day. The other ladies were wondering where I disappeared to and I was right here avoiding my fridge (Day 2)!

Now, we have a team name, a button and a brand new start date! You haven’t failed until you quit trying right? Right!

Well here we go ladies!!!! Starting Monday, January 2nd, 2012!

Get your buttons ready,

Practice your hashtags (#31daystoclean),

and yes, if you did your fridge before you have to do it again: those leftovers did a number on mine.

FAQ:

What is #31daystoclean? My friend Sarah Mae wrote a great book about having “Having a Martha house the Mary way”. You can check it out here: 31 Days to Clean.

Can I join your team?  Absolutely!! Grab a button, find us on twitter or chime in on our Facebook page!

Do I have to blog about it every day? No. I’m not that ambitious and I doubt my readers want to read about my dirty house getting clean every day. I will post at least weekly, and you can come link up if you want. You don’t have to blog about it at all. It’s your house, your blog.

Why does the button say “until they’re done”? Isn’t it only 31 days? yes, yes it is only 31 days. I am easily distracted, and have four kids, and am easily distracted, and home school, and am easily distracted, and forgetful, and at some point my “monthly time” is going to come around and I’m going to hate the world for a few days. Realistically, this might take me a few extra days. I just don’t want anyone feeling pressure to ONLY take 31 days. This isn’t about the days. It’s about the change. Sometimes we need a little extra time.
