Well I don't have any pictures to post with this post, it has been real busy around here lately. I have been watching my niece and I tell ya I forgot how hard it is to take care of a baby. But I enjoy it because I get to see her grow and see the new things that she does such as rolling over and trying to sit-up. I haven't really had time to post and take pictures. So today I am going to talk about how my cleaning and organization schedule is.
I take a few times throughout the day to get quick cleaning and deep cleaning done. This way I don't overwhelm myself with housework and I still have time throughout the day to get other things done including checking emails, Facebook, start on a Blog, etc.
The definition of quick clean for me is wiping down counters in the kitchen, doing dishes, clean any spills etc, sweeping and spot moping. Vacuuming high traffic areas, wiping down counters in the bathroom, picking up odds and ends that are out of place.
The definition of deep clean for me is to take a room each day of the week such as the kitchen where I wipe down all cabinets, appliances, clean out microwave, mop thoroughly, etc. I set a day for each one to get done. Once again this is so I don't get overwhelmed with cleaning and each room of my house gets deep cleaned at least once a week. As things arise and big messes are made then I will do a deep cleaning anyway but for the most part a quick clean each day until its deep clean day helps keep the house clean throughout the week.
Wednesdays I set aside for running any errands that I need to do such as making doctor appointments, paying bills, etc. Then I also clean out the car (vacuum, take out trash, wipe the car down, etc). I also deep clean the laundry room and clean out the frig. This helps keep everything clean and organized.
Now when I started this cleaning schedule I did not deep clean everything to have a fresh start so far on each day that I have set aside for a deep clean that is when that room got deep cleaned. Things don't happen over night. It took a few days to get dirty but I worked on it day by day and got things done. Now I can follow the schedule better now that all rooms have been deep cleaned.
Things to come next week:
Tomorrow ends the week for getting organized, cleaning, family management and family scheduling. Next week I will go over how I started couponing and give you some tips and tricks that work best for me and my family.
Hope everyone has a wonderful day!!!
