Cleaning Schedule

Now that I'm at home most of the housework has fallen on me. I'm okay with that since Anthony works 2 jobs and we are busy coaching softball, and trying to fit in seeing our families too. Don't get me wrong, Anthony is amazing and will do anything that he sees if I need help with it (frequently the dishes). To make it easier on me to be productive I have made a cleaning schedule. It's not perfect and somedays I might not get it all done but it's there and it's structure.

Monday-
Sweep Floors
Vacuum
Clean Bathroom
Dust ceilings

Tuesday-
Sweep Floors
Vacuum
Mop

Wednesday-
Sweep Floors
Vacuum
Dust
Clean Glass
Empty Trash

Thursday-
Sweep Floors
Vacuum
Clean inside the Fridge
Clean inside of Microwave

Friday-
Sweep Floors
Vacuum
Clean Closet (hallway/Anna's/Ours/Coat alternating each week)
Wipe down Baseboards/Door Knobs/ Light Switches/Top of Fridge alternating each week
Bathroom

Each week I have one thing that I try to get done too such as Wash all bedding, Clean under couch cushions & Furniture, Wash Curtains, and Clean the Kitchen Cabinets. It seems overwhelming at first, but really by breaking it into smaller pieces it is much more manageable and leaves less for us to do on the weekends.

Annnnndd this is one of the times I am thankful that we live in a little house!
