Cleaning List...

It's time again for WFMW over at Rocks in My Dryer. This week I'm going to talk about my cleaning schedule. Due to budget constraints (medical bills are WAY fun!), we have done away with our bi-monthly cleaning lady. With both of us working full time and 2 small kiddos, there is simply not time for a full cleaning to occur at any one time. So I sat down and thought of all the things that must happen for me to consider the house clean. I divided these tasks over a week (some are every 2 weeks). Then I had Frank choose which things he would be willing to do...you'll see his name written next to his chosen tasks. Now I know exactly what needs to happen on any given day, and Frank is also helping out. It is also nice because I don't have to nag Frank about what he needs to do...it's right there on the fridge in writing! This system really works for us!

Again, I swear we're the same person. I have a detailed list I follow weekly, too. :)

I have tried this, and if I was disciplined enough to actually do what is on my list, I would have a really clean house. You've inspired me to try again, though!

Thanks! Lizzie
