Day 251: My work desk has been cleaned!

I don't know why but I cleaned my work desk. I am not sure whether I actually am able to work in this clean environment. I am used to have lot of books, papers and other stuff on my desk. But colleague sitting next to me is always having so clean work desk that I started to feel that I have to also do something. (But still my colleague's desk is much much cleaner.)

Day 49: How to spend your vacation?

We have this storage in our back yard. There we are storing  lot of stuff like outdoor table and chairs, tires, bicycles, flowerpots, rakes and other gardening tools. Once a year (normally) we carry everything out, clean the storage, get rid of unnecessary things and finally get all back in good order. Last summer we didn't do that since we have this renovation of our back yard going on. So one our planned vacation activity was to clean the storage and that we did!

Day 9: Why should I vacuum more often?

I have to admit. I am no cleaner person. Here in Helsinki where I mostly live by my own I am not cleaning my one and only room weekly. Okay, of course I take garbage bags out when ever they are full. And I have separate bags for papers and bio waste. Empty bottles I put into plastic bag and take them to shop next time visiting there. Since I have no washing machine I have two different way to handle laundry. Towels and bedclothes I put into big plastic Ikea bag and when needed, I go to launderette. Other clothing I carry back and forth, that is I wash them in Naantali.

But vacuuming - that activity is done too rarely. Really! Today I vacuumed after seeing what is under my bed. Sorry for bad quality but believe me - there was lot of dust!
