My hubby may be returning to full-time work soon, so I have a TON to do around the house (he can play with my dd so I can get things done...when he goes back to work I am practically a single Mom). Anyhoo, my SIL gave me a site awhile ago that helps you get your house on track. They email a 15 minute chore a day. Are there other sites out there? I have less than a month. Plus, I "nest" early with my pregnancies so I am REALLY motivated to get organized.
Thanks in advance for your response...you gals are the best! :)
p.s I have heard about the "Flylady" but haven't tried her yet.
If you haven't checked out FlyLady yet, then you need to. It's exactly what you're looking for.
Hi S.,
I would suggest you start by getting yourself and appointment book with 5 columns.
Put everyone's name in each one of the column even baby to come.
Note the routine of each person under their column.
put in what you want to accomplish and what day and time.
Good luck. D.
What website did your SIL give you? There is www.motivatedmoms.com - todays list was
- Clean out one kitchen drawer
- Clean computer screen and mouse
- Change a/c or furnace filter
- Clip children's nails
- Spend time working on basement/attic or storage space
- Dust master bedroom
As well as a Bible reading and daily chores like dishes, make beds, etc.
Another vote for FlyLady!
Have you tried getorganizednow.com? The site sends out a weekly newsletter with a variety of tips (not necessarily daily chores but rather organization tips). They also have a check-off list published monthly that lists a chore every day. You can print out the monthly checklist and post it somewhere. You can also print the previous month's checklist.
S.-definitely look into Flylady. This will really help you and is probably just what you are looking for.
Another vote for Flylady, but I suggest you get the daily digest if a million emails a day bug you... there are a lot of them!
