Betty Sue Homemaker | your three words
I don’t know if it’s nesting or just being sick and tired of clutter and mess. For whatever reason it is, I have been trying to get a game plan together for keeping the house in order and finish getting ready for the baby. My first step was to get some sort of cleaning schedule together.
I started the schedule by taking a look at my grocery shopping day and our trash days. For example, our trash days are Tuesdays and Fridays. I wanted to make sure that I was gathering trash on Mondays and Thursdays. Another thing I like to do on trash nights is clean out the fridge. That is why I put kitchen cleaning on a Thursday. From there, everything else fell into place.
So without further ado, my official weekly cleaning schedule.
Weekly Cleaning Schedule
The hubster was pretty impressed with what I came up with. I know he’s not holding his breath but I really am committed to sticking to it. I plan on framing our schedule and putting it in the kitchen. It will be a form of accountability on my part because it will be visible everyday and everyone will see it.
My next step in organizing this house? I am putting together a binder. The binder will be broken up by month, then week, then day. I am hoping that this will keep my meal planning, grocery shopping, cleaning, and daily to-do’s in order. I even included a blogging worksheet. Once I get that all together, I will be sharing with you all!
I really am proud of myself. Just call me the next Betty Sue Homemaker!
Wow, you are very creative. I think if I had a schedule as nice as that I could actually stick to it.
I desperately need a schedule; breaking down the chores makes the cleaning seem far less overwhelming.
You have inspired me to create my own! Here's to an organised household…
Beneficial info and excellent design you got here! I want to thank you for sharing your ideas and putting the time into the stuff you publish! Great work!
That looks like a lot of work. I think I'll just continue in my routine: let the filth build up until I hit my breaking point then clean like a mad woman. 😉
