CI again --
[x] finish laundry --
[x] do Bible reading
[x] spend time in bedroom zone
[x] go to Wmart to get glasses repaired
[x] look for some "dressy" pants at Wmart or maybe Cato, in shopping area next to Wmart
(no luck -- one size too big, next size too tight )[x] call dmom --
she has scheduled ONE MORE consultation w/foot doctor for next week, then plans to schedule surgery/ass't living rehab ASAP)I think, like
Harmony, and some others here, there is no way I can really schedule each day. There are just too many unexpected interruptions in my days. Between dgrands/dmom, etc... I just never know.
I do follow this basic plan:
Monday -- laundry
Tuesday -- vacuum/dust/bathrooms, zone, as possible -- trying to follow the ASAP/AFAP (as FAST as possible) plan!
Wednesday -- ^^^^
Thursday -- ^^^^
Friday -- catch up, or -- in football season -- travel to college town most weekends
Saturday -- nothing
unless family/football/etc
Sunday -- church, groceries, allergy shots, dmom's meds
I also like to do all vacuuming at the same time, etc.
I may reorganize my cards ONE MORE TIME to make the time frame a little more equal -- so baby room & master bedroom aren't expected to be in the same week. Maybe I will put all bedrooms in a row, though. I think I will keep all bathrooms in one week though, b/c then IF I decide to use the steamer, I'll have it out one time. Other than that, the only bathroom that takes any time is the master bath anyway. No one ever uses the one connecting the baby room and the guest room, and the other bath, off the den hallway, is never used except for the toilet & sink.
We do keep everything picked up around here, which makes a HUGE difference in how the state of the house is perceived.
If only ds & ddil could learn that little habit. Of course, clutter doesn't bother some people like it does others. Obviously, it doesn't bother ds in the least. He has always lived like this. He has to have his "piles" of STUFF all around. When he was growing up, he would have his homework in one spot on the floor, baseball stats in a notebook in another spot, a book he was reading in another spot, his guitar lying to the side, etc etc etc...
He is extremely intelligent -- was always an excellent student -- so I wonder if this is some symptom of how his mind was working. Maybe some ADHD? He didn't like to put away anything/any project because he knew he was coming back to it.
DH is the opposite. DH cannot multi-task in any form or fashion. If he starts a project, he will not rest till it is done. He organized his baseball cards once, and for a couple days, there were baseball cards in stacks all across the den floor and the study -- and he may have taken time to sleep -- but he did not do ANYTHING until he had them all in order in notebooks.
I fall somewhere in between the two extremes. I can leave something and pick it up again, but I'm learning to only get out what I can deal with in one session.
I don't think I feel like vacuuming anymore tonight, and I'm leaving the vacuum in the baby room, but I'm going to go in there and sort some pictures that dh stored in there -- for no apparent reason -- and see if I can find a better place for them. That should be a 15 minute task.
EDITING TO SAY—
Got the box of pictures off the floor. They are all pics of ds (that were at dmil’s) so I left them in there. Got a couple more toys off the floor and onto shelves, took a bat and several balls outside where they are supposed to be.
