Happy New Year! Welcome to 2023! A New Year and a New You!


I wanted to start the year out with a giveaway.  I'm giving away the 1st Quarter of the Clean House Calendar Monthly Calendar, Weekly Calendar, and Daily Planner!

The Monthly Calendar

First up is the Monthly calendar.  This is a printable monthly calendar to help you get your home and life clean and organized.  Each page of the calendar includes:

  • A Monthly Calendar - with squares large enough to write appointments and keep track of where you (or the kiddos) need to be.
  • Weekly Task List - to check off what needs to be done each day of the week to get and keep your home clean and organized.  It also schedules time for hobbies and/or play.
  • Daily Task List - to check off what needs to be done daily to keep your home clean.
  • Monthly Task List - to check off those special items that need to be done monthly or seasonally.

The calendar is designed to be printed on 11 x 17 paper, then bound and hung in your home command center.  I hole punch the pages and hang the calendar on 3M Command Hooks. If you want to try the CHC Monthly Calendar, you can download it here.

The Weekly Calendar

Next is the Weekly calendar, also designed to be printed on 11 x 17 paper, then bound (I use a binding comb) and hung in your home command center.  However, it can be easily printed on 8.5 X 11 paper, hole-punched, and placed in a binder.  

Each page of the calendar includes:

  • Weekly Appointment Schedule - to keep track of where you (or the kiddos) need to be.
  • Weekly Task List - to check off what needs to be done each day of the week to get and keep your home clean and organized.  It also schedules time for hobbies and/or play.
  • Daily Task List - to check off what needs to be done daily to keep your home clean.
  • Monthly Task List - to check off those special items that need to be done monthly or seasonally.
  • A Monthly Calendar - as a reference, so you know where you are in the month.

If you want to try the CHC Weekly Calendar, you can download it here.

The Daily Planner

Finally is the Daily Planner.  This version of The Clean House Calendar works with the Happy Planner System.  Each page of the planner includes:

  • Daily Activity/Appointment Schedule - to keep track of where you need to be and do each day.
  • Weekly Task List - to check off what needs to be done each day of the week to get and keep your home clean and organized.  It also schedules time for hobbies and/or play.
  • Daily Task List - to check off what needs to be done daily to keep your home clean.
  • Daily Meal Plan - to know what's for dinner.
Also included in the planner is:
  • A Yearly Perpetual Calendar - view 6 months of important dates on one page.
  • Monthly Dashboard - a comprehensive overview of the month, including:
    • Monthly Goals List - to identify your top 3 goals for the month.
    • Monthly Task List - to check off those special items that need to be done monthly or seasonally.
    • Monthly Trackers - to keep track of developing habits.
    • Book List - to keep track of what you want to read each month.
    • A Monthly Calendar - as a reference, so you know where you are in the month.

Confession Time

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
