These are the lists that I made. I also made a binder with my list along with notebooks. I love making list, so having a notebook devoted to whatever thing I am trying to accomplish is very helpful.
Household cleaning Schedule
(I always try and do a general pick-up in the morning and in the evening before Michael come home. Just so overall things are picked up and put away. This usually only takes a few minutes if I am on top of things.)
- Weekly cleaning- I am planning on spending an hour a day on this item. Each day of the week is a different area of the house.
- Bi-Weekly cleaning- Something I concentrate on during the week as I do my daily cleaning. Week 1 is closets and Cupboards & Week 2 Storage, Van, Garage
- Monthly Cleaning- Bigger items such as windows, baseboards, touching up paint.
Household Maintenance List- Things that need to be checked by a professional periodically. I figure if I try and do one of them every 2 months, I can afford it and I will know things in my house are working well.
Organize- Things that I need to work out a system of organization.
House for Sale List- This is a long & expensive list. These are things that would have to be done to Sell my house. I am hoping to do some of these things slowly to enjoy where I live more.
Kids Chore Chart- I worked out a system that works for our family. I think it is different for every family and what works for you. My kids are just starting to realize that they can actually do chores. I am not a huge supporter of allowance so this is a way for my kids to earn money on my terms. I will do another post explaining our new system another day, and link it to here. I also think you sometimes have to change your system up. Kids get board, a simple change can make all the difference when it comes to helping out and doing their part.
