Cleaning. The word that makes us all leap for joy, no?! I do get anxious right around this time of year though to spruce things up around the house. Getting rid of all the cobwebs, wool, and coziness of winter feels kind of liberating, doesn’t it?
In order to keep laundry from accumulating, I also wash one load of laundry a day. Usually, I bring it to the mudroom even before breakfast. Then after breakfast, switch from the washer to the dryer. – I TRY (although I don’t always succeed) to get a whole load taken care of (washed, dried, ironed, and put away) before lunch. You’ll be surprised at how easily you can stay on top of the ever growing wash pile by just doing one load each day.
*Wash and prep fruits and veggies right away, and display in a nice bowl or baskets inside the fridge so people can find a healthy snack quickly and with minimal effort.
I hope some of these cleaning tips can help inspire you to come up with (or keep pressing on with) a cleaning routine of your own. A working routine looks different for everybody, but just having one is what will keep your house from going to the dogs :-)!

Thanks so much for having me today Carrie 🙂
thanks for the great tips, i am a neat freak myself and cannot go to bed unless the house is picked up or atleast everything put back in its place. saturdays are cleaning day and laundry is done, vacuuming, cleaning all the bathrooms as well. Each saturday is a different room to wash bedding. I also clean the kitchen along the way as im cooking dinner.
Thank you for the cleaning routine tips. I have a very hard time getting into a routine. With these tips I think I can do it.
Ever since my kids left the nest and that has been years ago I haven’t been able to get into a routine. When all my kids were home “5 of them” every Sat. was cleaning day. We each had something to do and the house was cleaned up and stayed pretty much clean till the next Sat. I could have company anytime and the house looked clean. I was overwhelmed when it was just me doing the cleaning and could not get organized. So frustrating. With your simple tips for a routine I think I can manage it. Thank you.
Wow! How lovely are your furbabies! Thank you for providing this simple tips on how to have a clean home in minutes. It is just a time management and well organized. If I have a time I will do deep cleaning services at my home.
