Hey friend, 💛 Welcome to Week 36 of the 52-Week Cleaning Challenge! We’ve officially reached the stage of our journey where we’re turning our attention to those sneaky clutter magnets we pretend not to see. 👀 Yes, I’m talking about the tech zone: cords, consoles, cable chaos, and that mysterious remote that somehow vanishes when we need it most. This week, we’re going to take back our living rooms—one power cord and dusty shelf at a time.
🎮🖥️ What to Do This Week:
Here’s your mission, should you choose to accept it (and I know you will):
-
Organize all cords and electronics. That means wrangle the wires behind your TV, untangle the mess near your charging station, and give each device a proper home. Cord organizers and cable clips are your new best friends. (I’ll link some I like below!)
-
Clean your electronics. Grab a microfiber cloth and gently wipe down your TV, sound system, gaming consoles, streaming devices—anything that’s been gathering dust while bingeing Netflix. Be sure to power everything off first!
-
Tidy and clean any shelves or cabinets that store entertainment items. DVDs, video games, remotes, chargers; you know the drill. If it hasn’t been used in years, maybe it’s time to donate or recycle.
