Clean House

So Adam has been gone for over a week now.  I miss him like crazy.  I hate when he's gone just at work for a day, so this is terrible.  BUT the positive is that I am getting my house clean.  I like to over-achieve when he's away so he'll be really impressed when he gets back.  My master bedroom and bathroom are spotless.  My living room is so pretty.  My kitchen is shiny.  Today and tomorrow I'm working on the entryway, dining room, and school room.  All my laundry is totally caught up.  Not just clean, but PUT AWAY!!!!  This is major for me.

I'm going off a few helpful tips from a very helpful website.  FLYlady is a little cheesy, but super helpful.  Check it out if you want help organizing your household chores.  I am not following it exactly, but following the general idea.  Tips like: a load a day keeps the chaos away (with laundry), run the dishwasher before bed, unload in the morning, and focus on one area (zone) at a time. So far, it's really making a difference!

I'm so excited to finally feel like my house isn't overwhelming me!!!  yea!

  1. I do NOT like that website. Her morning checklist sounds like my weekly checklist.
