- The mess an old exploded coke can left (with the remnants of my Magic Eraser)
- Counters (with Windex)
- Litterbox & surrounding area (also w/ Windex)
- 1 load of dishes
Right after the last fridge cleaning session I also did a pantry cleaning session and set aside all of the cans that are expired. My dilemma is that all of these canned goods are:
- Expired
- In cans which can be recycled
- Still full of food (which is now expired)
As a result, my can of expired Coke has been sitting on the edge of my sink.
Imagine my surprise today when I discovered it had exploaded and leaked all over my Magic Eraser, 2 sponges, and box of Baking Soda I use for cleaning at the sink.
The spill was VERY thick and sticky which is odd because when I opened the can (it leaked through some invisible hole in the side) what I poured out looked the consistency/fluidity of regular Coke.
Since I really DON'T want to see the inside of any of the other cans, I obviously need to have my little dumpster excursion soon.

Yep, it even got the blender |
Notice that it's all over my pile of sponges |
In response to some of my commenters, yes I agree that it's time to tackle the Recycling in a big way. Yes it IS bad to simply move the clutter from place to place, but having a Junk Room is a wonderful thing because it allows me to make VERY visible progress quite quickly, something which helps to provide the motivation to continue working.
I think moving the recycling en-masse is a good way to move on to the stage I'm dreading...separating the things which I have been saving for years in to groups to sell, give, or trash.
youve inspired me to use my own blog that i have yet to use as a self help motivator! ill link you the blog :)
