This is the place where we post what we want to do, what we did and how we did it! Personally, I follow the Flylady method so I'll be posting that here as well. But don't let her ways prevent you from posting your ways.
Flylady week of 2/4/2018
Start by spending 10 min a day on the following daily tasks:
Monday: Get all the surfaces cleared off in your Living Room and or Family Room!
Tuesday:Vacuum the room, making sure to get up against the baseboards and to get under the furniture.
Wednesday: Place something pretty in the room that is just for you. I am thinking of some lovely flowers that you can purchase for just a few dollars. Maybe you have a lovely arrangement or plant somewhere in your home that would be just perfect in your freshly decluttered living room!
Thursday: dust the base boards in the entrance and dining room.
Friday: to add personal touches to the entrance, Dining Room, and Front porch. This can be a table cloth for the dining room, or a welcome mat for the porch. Do a 27 boogie fling of things that need to be put away, donated or thrown out in these areas.
FlyLady’s Detailed Cleaning List – Zone 1: The Entrance, Front Porch, and Dining Room
