I have got to be the worlds worst organizer, planner and any other "er" that is associated with the two. Whenever I try to clean the house, I get overwhelmed by the time I finish the first room and I give up. Cleaning the entire house is such a big task to do all at once, at least for me. In my attempt to help myself out with cleaning my house, I broke down the main chores and gave each chore an assigned day. Kinda like I would for my child...except I am making it for myself (how sad is that???) Here's to seeing if this works! Anyone wanna try with me? Maybe we can keep each other accountable?!?
My list:
Oh my goodness, I try that same thing AT LEAST once every three months, and I always fail! I also get so overwhelmed when I start to clean, I feel like I don't even know where to begin! I usually just walk around in circles, stopping about every 20 minutes to check my e-mail (aka: procrastinating), and then I give up! Maybe we could keep each other accountable...I am going to clean the living room now!
ReplyDeleteGosh, I NEED to do this! In fact, every week I think, "Next week I will start a weekly routine!" And by Monday I've forgotten it already. :) Maybe this will help me remember (if not, mention it to me on Sunday!) :)
ReplyDeleteIts a fabulous idea to break it down like that!
ReplyDeleteI have to do that too -- even if I don't stick to it, I still keep up better if I make a list and have it handy to keep me close to on top of things! I lost the one I had before moving... just made a new one last night!
ReplyDeleteLove this idea...making a list on Monday, we'll see how it goes. Good luck!
