Keeping our home clean and organized is not always an easy job. With 6 very active and creative boys, there seems to be no end of clutter, stains, dust, and dirt. However, I recently came across a wonderful website: tipsandpix.com from a mom who has organized a daily cleaning schedule to help her keep on top of everything without having to do it all in one day. So, I decided I would put together something like this because at the rate I was going I was just going around in circles and never really getting anything clean. Using her idea, I've put together a cleaning schedule that fits my big family and schedule and started it this week. So far, it's awesome. I feel in control of the mess again and know that by the end of each month, the house will have all the major dirt collecting area cleaned up. The only thing I didn't put on my schedule was the 5th Friday. I've decided that when a fifth Friday shows up in a month, I will use it to deep clean one of the bedrooms or to organize some closets, the pantry or laundry room.
So here is a picture of my schedule:
