About a month ago, I got my act together and after a few days of hard work my home was clean. I knew that if I did a few things each day it would stay that way. The sad thing is that I know when our lease is up I will have to start all over again, since Casey’s new job is in Frisco living in mid-town Dallas makes for an interesting commute. I decided now that I have it at the level where it just needs to be maintained that I would make myself a cleaning schedule. I figured that if I kept it to a few task each day it would be easier on me and my family. It would also make it possible to get out and run errands in a timely manner if needed.

What do you think? I think I made each day manageable with out feeling overwhelmed, does it seem like I am leaving something major off? Do you have a home maintenance routine?
I think this is a good idea! I may try to follow something similar. It’s too easy to while away the hours working, writing, emailing, etc!
