Home Organization

I love taking care of my home. There is something great about the feeling you get when making things comfy and clean for your family. I don't always get my house as clean as I would like. It is hard when there are several people living in one home. Every one needs to pitch in and help do their share.  My pots and pans are not all shiny. I just recently found out that S.O.S. Cleaning Pads stands for "save our saucepans".  I think it is too late for some of mine.
I don't have a written out schedule I follow but I have found I do most things on a routine which is pretty much the same thing.  I clean the house on the days that work the best for what is happening that week, that usually ends up Monday or Tuesday which is what I prefer. If there are reasons I will switch cleaning that week to a better day and then return to my routine the next week, but I feel cleaning needs to be done once a week and it is best to keep it on the same days. Dust buildup causes sneezes and painful sinuses. Our cat, Johanne Sebastion Tiger, leaves fur here and there, so need I say more.
Laundry is something that must be done every day because there is something usually in the wash that someone needs. Waiting until a particular day doesn't help here. 

One of the things that helps to keep the home running smooth is having a binder full of important checklists and papers. Some items in mine are:  work schedules, phone numbers, computer passwords (nothing is worse than forgetting a password to a particular website), childhood vaccine schedules,  school testing score sheets, other medical papers, vacation and traveling checklists, holiday schedules, insurance papers and more.
The home isn't always kept perfect but I like coming up with new ways to organize and improve. My next goal is to set up a routine for cleaning out the refrigerator. Now there is a job that needs tackling.
