SHEs Organized

I gave the kitchen counters a bit of attention yesterday and that made a world of difference in less time than I thought it would take. Got the sinks cleaned earlier in the day. Today stayed on top of that yea for progress.

Today dining room table needs attn.

It's trash day card here yesterday I got the trash emptied and hubby did shredding got it out to the curb. This one goes in the day before to be ready the next day.

Harriet you mentioned laundry I used to do 2 tubs a day during the week when the kids were home that was four of us here at that time hope you find a schedule that works for you & yours.

Well trash day has rolled around again so that card is up I've taken it to the curb this is a team work project for us LOL! I do the upstairs H. does the basement gets it all secure tied off and shreds some weeks don't think that happened last week with the colds we were fighting. H. gets it ready the night before and I roll it out to the curb. This is working pretty well for us. I still liked it better when he did that before he left for work when he was working the early shift and I got up looked out the window and saw that it was done!

Harriet - I hace a monthly check list I use.
I have items to tick off or write how many loads of laundry I do, plus tick off bed sheet changes and lounge cover changes. If I get out of sinc combining towel and sheet changes I have added Towels to the sheet line and mark a T when I do them, but mostly they will fit in with sheets in summer. winter sheets and kitchen teatowels are a load by themselves, towels go in with clothing and smaller clothing loads. Unless theres a special need I just wash all the clothes in a mixed load - unless I havent washed for a bit and there is enough to sort into loads. I like the 1/2 size basket. When its full thats a load.
I know - family living creates perhaps a week of my washing in a day so there is easier / more need to sort.

I'm trying to get back to some daily routines that used be helpful, and if I could get back to doing one cleaning job daily that would be good. I also still have sticker cards I fill up ( hopefully) but I have joined several tasks together on some I've already filled both side of the card and thats not working as well as I hoped. The sticker cards may have had their day - or maybe I start again with just a few of basics like those that were mentioned in the don't break the link thread.
