This is going to take some doing. I am NOT done with the bedroom yet...Haven't touched the bathroom at all, BUT my 5 loads of laundry are done, washed, dried, folded AND put away where they belong!
I'm going to leave this schedule up so I can work on it. I THINK I MIGHT HAVE TO GET ALL THE ROOMS IN ORDER FIRST BEFORE APPLYING THE SCHEDULE, SO i CAN MAKE IT WORK FOR ME.

One thing you can do is follow your list by doing a really short 5 to 10 minute pick up in each room, then you're following your list and making headway at the same time. And it's so fun to straighten out an area that only has 1 or 2 days mess in it.

I had to take off today from about 1 until 6, so I didn't get much done today, but I want to get plenty done tomorrow. I'll check in on you if you're here, I'm really impressed with your list and how much you get done.

How is it going, ClearWaterRush? Does it seem like you are making any headway, yet?
Boy, I love that exercise list....that is something that I really need to add, too!
Hope that things are going well for you!

I finally saved this site where I could find it! I thought I had lost it forever!!
The Morning Routine is working great.
The weekly schedule doesn't seem to pan out....I think I'n doing too much and getting tired and burned out.
I am going to do the Working in 3's. At least I can do that much! I have been jumping around doing a little of this and that.
MY KITCHEN DISHES HAVE REMAINED PUT UP AND MY CABINETS CLEAN!
I have cleaned and shined my porcilan sinks, cleaned my stove top and underneath, emptied my refridgerator and freezer of rotted and freezer burned foods, DECLUTTERED my entire bedroom and organized it(Still need to clean it but heyyyyyyyyy).
I do have one trouble area and that's going to be the dining room. I keep passing this by. I am now learning to try to be positive instead of negative.
I will try to post what I have done each day at the end of the day after I relax.

Today I;
1). Decorated my front door with Holloween items.
2). Fixed my son's fence in two spots that joins with our land. I saw where their 4 dogs were getting out while washing the dishes! Now no more dogs at the bus stop or on my front porch.
3). I put plastic on my bedroom window and closed down the air condioner and put plastic over this. I put the electric blanket on the bed and plugged it in. Also hooked up the electric heater.
4). I put plastic over the grandkids window and hooked up the electric heater in their room.
5). Painted the rest of the cabinets in powder blue.
6). Moved the grandkids King Kong race car set to the other side of the dining room.
7). Put all the empty boxes together and shoved them under the dining room.

Sunday: Did the complete bathroom. It is so shiny and clean. I didn't think it was dirty till I used Tide Lavender Clothes soap and bleach in the bathtub with a green scotch brite scrubber. Then on to the sink where I soaked everything down with Comet with bleach in it. It came out white! The stool just needed to be swished and wiped with the comet. I emptied the trash can and stuck it in the tub to soak. Scrubbed it quickly and air dried it and put in a new blue trash sack. Also soaked the brush and holder to the stool. Washed the shower curtain and hung up wet. Clean towels were put out. Washer and Dryer completely wiped down. Cobwebbed by using the same wash rag used to clean the tub, but a lot wetter. Put the rag on top of broom bristles and did the ceiling and walls. Almost lost the rag behind the dryer! Then I used febreeze on the carpeted floor and swept the carpet. Smells good and looks like Mr. Clean rode through!
I goofed around on the three loads of Laundry yesterday and it was around 10:00pm before I got it all taken care of. I had three pair of hubby's levis to iron real quick. The went to bed.
MONDAY:
Sweep and Mop the Kitchen and dining room floors
Go to Bowling league
Start to declutter lower kitchen cabinets from the oven to the right.

TUESDAY
All Holloween Decorations are up. I had the grand kids help. It took us 45 minutes and they loved doing it! I just followed their lead as to what to put where and how to do it. It was fun!
*I scrubbed the Kitchen floor on my knees with an old white cotton sock.
I Moved my stove and used hot boiling water with bleach and a little Tide powdered soap and scrubbed the entire floor, tearing off any tile that was sticking up(It almosts trips me some times). I'll get new dollar tile later. I cleaned the side of the stove nest to the cabinet. It and the cabinet were a mess. But it's done now. I laid down six large tiles before I moved the stove back. My floor is extreemly clean now. No grime or grease!
