Salty Pirates
Nov. 3rd, 2023 11:20 amOver on Tumblr,
copperbadge created an annual challenge a few years back called National Clean Your House Month. Kind of like NaNoWriMo for your house. It's otherwise known as NaClYoHo, which got translated into Salty Pirates (NaCl being salt, and YoHo indicating pirates).
The idea of the challenge is that you spend a pre-determined amount of time (tradionally the length of a podcast of one's choice) doing something related to home upkeep, be that cleaning or organizing or whatever. I've attempted it every year with varying degrees of success (because I'm me), but I am avoiding Tumblr right now, so I'm recording it here instead.
My apartment is the usual Pit of Despair and I would very much like it not to be. Or at least be clean enough for me to have maintenance come and change light bulbs and smoke alarm batteries. Doing that requires clear floors and a kitchen and bathroom that are basically cleaned up. So, that's the target.
