I have spent this week busting my hump to get my home back to shape. When we moved here in October, I never got it up to snuff, I just coasted through. Well after dwelling, pouting, and even throwing a few fits trying to get help. I put on my big girl panties and did it myself. I still have a few small things to do get it just right but I will get there. The sad thing is that I know when our lease is up I will have to start all over again, since Casey got laid off and was unable to find a job in the part of town. The commute would be killer, but that is all for another post. I decided now that I have it at the level where it just needs to be maintained that I would make myself a cleaning schedule.

What do you think? I think I made each day manageable with out feeling overwhelmed, does it seem like I am leaving something major off? I also thought that with fewer things to do each day that if Ian and I wanted to go do something, wee can get up get it done and out the door rather quickly. Do you have a home maintenance routine?

Schedules are good…I just couldn't keep one! 🙂 Way to go with the cleaning though. It always makes me feel better when I've got things in order.

You have yourself vacuuming on Tuesday AND Thursday. Unless you have a bunch of hairy dogs that live in your house or you let your kids eat in the living room, you probably don't need to vacuum 2 days apart like that.

Holy smokes Bobbi, are you a clean freak?! Just teasin. Since you asked…no, I definitely don't have a cleaning schedule. Oddly enough, I myself was a self proclaimed clean freak. Then I got married and had a kid who became a toddler. There is way too much fun to be had now. Part of our nighttime routine is picking up. The whole family pitches in and I make sure (most nights) to get the kitchen cleaned up. I only clean about every other week, although main floors get swept more often due to high traffic and mealtime crumbs.

Making a plan is a great idea! It's good to write it down because then you're held accountable to it.

I don't have a schedule but I need one. It's just…when I wake up every day, I just want to hide under the covers all day and eat brownies. Your schedule sounds good.

Interesting. Seems manageable. Maybe a little me-ish (in the fact that you are trying to jam-pack everything in a week, causing you to forgo sleep at some points), but it's still flexible.
