I haven’t done any decluttering this evening and I’m not likely to either as it’s 15 minutes until midnight. I popped into the kitchen to get a drink of water and was faced with this:
Before the quick tidy up
Let’s see if I can get it looking better before the clock strikes midnight.
Hopefully it’ll still be tidy in the morning unless someone gets up and had a midnight feast.
I asked Alexa to put on some Spa music and set a timer for 13 minutes so that I could post this blog before midnight.
I did it!
After the quick tidy up
Until tomorrow…

About Sandra Madeira
I am a working mum and entrepreneur with a passion for writing, coaching, mentoring and inspiring others. Subjects I tend to blog about are life skills, parenting, decluttering, worklife balance, career etc.
I’ve been on a decluttering mission for years creating space in my house, garden and mind. In 2020 I challenged myself to declutter every day for a whole year and write about it daily.
After that success I took on a challenge to change my career from accountant to life coach, and in early 2024 set up my own company.
I continue to keep up with the decluttering, and now write daily about my home life and coaching business.
Have a good day!

Nice kitchen. Either my husband or I clean up right after dinner because I hate getting up and being faced with a dirty kitchen. My kids learned at a very early age to put their dishes in the dishwasher after they cleared the table. I found that cleaning the kitchen after dinner helped my eating habits, didn’t eat late because I didn’t want to mess up the kitchen! Win/win
Thank you. Doing the kitchen every evening sounds like a good plan as well as eating earlier in the evening. I was very grateful to my girls today as they unloaded and loaded the dishwasher whilst I was at work and hung up the washing whilst I was out with friends this evening 😊
Well done! Everyday messes are my nemesis because they just build up so quickly… next thing I know, my living room table is covered in junk and looks like an insurmountable problem. Let’s not talk about my kitchen…

You can’t do it all by yourself!
