overwhelmed

thank you again for your comments.

i have looked at flylady before but it was a bit full on with the emails for me to keep up! i do like the idea of days per room though, i often find i'm doing a little in each room but it looks like i haven't done anything!

for now i'm sat with a glass of wine though

Hi everyone,

I have a son who is 3 and daughter who is 7. My husband works full time mon-fir and I work 15 hours a week which equates to 3 hours mon & tues and the remaining 9 sat/sun.

I tend to have the following routine:

Monday - first thing I hang out the washing and empty dishwasher
After school I change all the beds and dust
After dinner I wipe sides in kitchen and table, clean loo,
Hoover and wash floors

Tuesday - first thing is washing and dishwasher
After school is swimming so not much gets done
After dinner I wipe sides in kitchen and table, clean loo
Wash floors

Wednesday - first thing is washing and dishwasher
Full clean of kitchen
Hoover whole house wash floors
Clean loo
Wipe sides in kitchen and table

Thursday - first thing is washing and dishwasher
Full clean of bathroom
Hoover and wash floors
Wash woodwork and doors
Wipe sides in kitchen and table
Clean loo

Friday - first thing washing and dishwasher
Clean windows inside
Hoover and wash floors
Wipe sides in kitchen and table
Clean loo

Saturday - Husband is home whilst I'm at work
He deep cleans the kitchen and bathroom
I Hoover and wash floors when I'm home

Sunday - Wipe sides in kitchen and table
Clean loo
Wash floors

Everyday after school I make the lunch for the next day and put it into the fridge, I also feed the animals before dark and put rubbish out on Sunday evening ready for Monday. Sounds a lot but my routine works really well.
