I want to be a better homemaker as well. I married my boyfriend of almost six years a little over a month ago and promised him on our wedding day, in front of God and all our family, that I would be create a comfortable, clean, loving home for him. And I am so excited about it! I love cooking for him…LOVE IT. However, I work full-time while he’s still in school so when I come home after a nine hour day, the LAST thing I want to do is a load of laundry or the dishes.

Man, I am TERRIBLE about doing laundry. I just let it pile up and it’s literally exploding from the laundry room. Luckily he and I have tons of clothes to wear in the meantime. heehee. And no matter how motivated I am to clean the bathroom, as soon as I get in the door I just want to sit down.

I have to face the facts and call it what it is…I’m lazy in the evenings. I need to find a way to find, keep, and utilize the motivation to make our home a great place to live.

I’m going to dedicate one-two hours every Saturday morning to doing heavy cleaning and laundry duty so during the week I don’t feel so overwhelmed. And do laundry at least once a week. That should bea good start, right?
