Clean My House and Keep It Clean (read all 20 entries…)
Untitled 21 months ago

I’ve been cleaning all day! This is a big step in getting the house clean! When mom gets home she’ll be like, “Wow! Nice job!” I’ve realized that cleaning isn’t bad or un-fun…If you look at the mess in the right way, you’ll have it cleaned up in no time! And that book that I bought the other day is really helping. It has a system that really works for me! I bet it works for a lot of people. It really makes sense…not like those other books that tell you you’ll get it ALL done in one day. Hello? It takes a long time to transform your house from dirty to clean. There’s all this stuff that isn’t supposed to be there and you have to get rid of it….blah blah blah…I mean, there’s a lot to do to make your house clean. You have to sell some stuff, give away some stuff, throw away some stuff, organize, and sometimes repair parts of your house..like that hole in the ceiling….What I am trying to say is, it’s unrealistic trying to transform your house in one day. Way unrealistic! So, now that I know cleaning takes a long time I will accept that and clean everyday until I’ve transformed my house. My sister really wants a yard sale. I hope we’ll have one someday….

Good Luck with this goal

I actually enjoy cleaning but have never been able to keep my home as clean as I’d like or even what I would find acceptable. I recently budgeted my time – which sounds goofy but really works. I give myself two hours a day (10:30 – 12:30) to clean. I do the downstairs on MWF and the upstairs on T/Th the weekends are open to tidying and larger projects or what I’m in the mood to do. I know I only have two hours so it helps me keep my speed up and get done what’s most important. What I found is my house stays pretty clean now to include dog hair from two dogs. When I’m running low on time I do a bunch of spot cleans too. Who’d of thought this would work but it has and everyone in the house has noticed the difference. Hope you find a system that works for you too.
