Ok, so I have to confess, I spent too much time online this morning and didn't get all of my list completed. I didn't get down into the basement today and my pile of paperwork was untouched. Oh well, its a work in progress and I'm a work in progress. My checklist for Saturday and Sunday are light so I can pick up what I don't get done then or just wait until next week. The paperwork is a weekly activity and the basement is ongoing.
So are you ready for tomorrow? I'm kinda excited for tomorrow, because each Tuesday is organization day for a new room or closet and tomorrow is the laundry room. I have been walking through this room for awhile now thinking "I have to get this picked up and better organized." So tomorrow is the day! I will try to post pictures tomorrow evening.
I had a comment about the checklist being a bit overwhelming. Please don't let it be. Make quick work of it and don't let other things that need to be cleaned get you sidetracked. Like I said before, my laundry room has been calling to me for awhile now but I knew the time was coming that it would be addressed and so I just kept walking. It takes me about 30 minutes to all of the items on the Morning Checklist, bathrooms and sweep/vacuuming and about that for the Evening Checklist depending on how much kitchen clean-up is needed after dinner. I do it well but I do it fast and then I enjoy a clean kitchen, made beds, a picked-up living room and my favorite, shiney floors. Also, give yourself a break, just like I did today. If it doesn't get done one day it can be done another sometime during the week or whenever it rolls around again. Remember a clean and organized home is and ongoing project not one with a deadline.
So here is tomorrow's checklist:
Tuesday, January 5, 2010
Morning
Make bed(s).
Empty dishwasher.
Prepare for dinner.
Kitchen cleanup.
Check planner.
Take vitamins/medication.
Start load of laundry.

Anytime

Exercise.
Sort mail/do daily paperwork.
Spot clean bathrooms.
Replace towels in bathrooms.
Clean & organize laundry room.
Evening
Kitchen clean-up.
Sweep kitchen.
Empty kitchen trash.
Start dishwasher.
Replace dish towels.
Finish load of laundry.
Do evening pick-up/straighten.
Check planner.
Take vitamins/medication.
