MUST HAVE CLEANING SCHEDULE/ BUSY MOMS / FREE #cleaning #mom #motivation

[dotcassilles]

I am on a journey of recovery from being bed bound. I'm still housebound so I have the time but not the energy. This cleaning schedule has alot in common with "flylady", "but first coffee" and "clutterbug".
The secret is working out what is the minimum of house stuff that you are comfortable with (it varies greatly), how much effort/focussed attention is needed, how long each of the tasks take you on a bad day and then work out the time you have available. Match up how much energy and time you have with the tasks you need to do. Dedicate time to both the urgent tasks and the important ones. Identify all those times that you only have a few minutes (2-5 minutes) and also write a reminder of the little tasks that only take that few minutes.
For example while boiling the electric kettle/jug and heating up a wheatbag (preparing for a break) I will tidy one bench or wipe a flat surface or even wash up one thing (if you have a dishwasher you could put the dirty stuff in or put clean stuff away). It blows me away every day how those few minutes add up to a clean/tidy kitchen. Blessings, Dot

I just saw this I love, love love this. I'm pushing 70 and can't do big projects. I can't wait to try this. There are things that I haven't see anywhere. Thank you so much

I just wrote it all down on a piece of notebook paper. It's going on the Fridge and explained to my family. I inherited my Momma's home last year and couldn't stop cleaning and rearranging and organizing for the first few months and now it all seems so overwhelming to take care of while working 40+ hours a week, raising my preteen daughter, and just trying to keep keep our heads above water. It's not filthy, but could be so much more clean. I really hope this list helps because life doesn't seem to be getting any easier or slowing down ❤. Thank you for sharing your ideas, tips, and helpful advice. I just found your videos this morning and I'm watching them all and writing down whatever I think will help. P. S. My Momma was cleaning fanatic and her standards were high for a clean house. I miss her so much and just want to keep it clean and organized to honor her memories and the gracious gifts she left for me❤

I struggle with this so much. I struggle to clean things that dont look dirty yet. But by the time they're dirty its that much harder. Ive judt started keeping a dish brush with vinegar and dish soap in the shower and ive cleaned it every week whete previously id do my bathroom once every 3 months when it was a huge job again. Thank you for helping lazy slobs like me

Do you have a system for getting caught up as well, to get to the maintenance phase?
