The great unfucking continues

I'm late to Unfuck Your Habitat, like every other party I attend, but holy crap it is the best thing ever. It isn't telling me anything I didn't already know--except maybe drain volcanoes, which I'd at least forgotten--but the repetition and challenges and breaking down of tasks is amazingly motivational. The public areas of my house have been clean for a week now, which is pretty outstanding around these parts. The bedroom is a minor disaster (but only a minor one), and I may turn that into tomorrow's challenge.

My other challenge besides the bedroom is to unfuck my novel proposal. I have four chapters of Isyllt IV that are full of bits I love, but are also deeply flawed in a stakes/motivation way, and I need to take everything apart and rebuild it in a more stable fashion. It would also help to foreshadow the other half of the plot if I knew what that half was.

It's totally cheating on this one if you move into a new place. Especially if you leave all your furniture behind. I totally cheated. *g*

Yeah I started officially unfucking my habitat on the first (and started writing morning pages too, hot damn) and I have been recording the process with five photos taken in approximately the same place "first thing in the morning" and by that I mean that I've made my bed and done what i need to do in order to put clothes on, but not anything else. It's neat to see what's happening already.

Unfuck your habitat is exactly what I needed, because I just wanted to enact fantasies of violence at the flylady ethos and habithacker isn't set up to be in my face so I never remembered to visit it. but all you have to do is follow UFYH and it's on your dash.
