We have just spent the week getting into the grove of our daily routine. It's similar in nature to that outlined in Mother's Rule of Life and Flylady. So today, I dust out our monthly routine. I really like Martha Stewart's version and have transcribed them in an excel workbook. I've added four columns next to each task for every week. I check off each task as I go along. I've also modified the list by repeating categories for rooms with similar functions. For example, instead of simply Bedrooms, I have Master Bedroom, Boys Bedroom and Girls Bedroom. I suppose this might go against my simple philosophy but with my pregnant brain, I can forget simple things like take out trash and brush the toddlers' teeth. :) Maybe in a month, I'll be ready to tackle the Monthly Cleaning List. Oh, and this is a huge dream, I'll actually get to the Seasonal Cleaning List, Preparing Your Home for Summer list, Prepare Your Home for Winter list. Although truthfully, I don't do half of the suggestions on the list because I don't have that much stuff to clean. *grinz* The beauty of decluttering!
