Here is my weekly housecleaning list. Its Simple and Easy.

illinoismommy · 01-15-2009, 11:44 AM

Someone wanted a list. Here is one for you! I just wanted to share in case it helps somebody

I print this out once a week and I like to put checks or X's by the things as they are done

Does not include normal meal clean up stuff that is 4 times a day... and maybe other stuff

But its Simple and Easy, which is exactly what I need. When do I do this? In little random spurts throughout the day... but mostly in the morning before I get run down and distracted...

Monday (living room day)

Straighten living room clutter spots
Declutter or deep cleaning in living room (this just means pick one spot or extra thing to do each week, and if you do this regularly, there will never be a need to do more)
Vacuum main rooms
Sweep kitchen
Dishes
Load of laundry
Toy clean up
Quick tidy kitchen

Tuesday (kids and toy room)

Straighten toy and kid's bedroom clutter spots
Declutter or deep cleaning in kid's and toy room
Sweep kitchen
Dishes
Load of laundry
Toy clean up

Wednesday (master bedroom)

Straighten master bedroom clutter spots
Declutter or deep cleaning in kid's and toy room
Vacuum master bedroom
Vacuum living room
Sweep kitchen
Dishes
Load of laundry
Toy clean up
Quick tidy kitchen

Thursday (bathroom)

Bathroom floors

Clean bathtub
Sweep kitchen
Dishes
Load of laundry
Toy clean up

Friday (kitchen)

Straighten kitchen clutter spots
Declutter or deep clean in kitchen
Sweep kitchen
Mop kitchen
Dishes
Load of laundry
Toy clean up

Thanks. I need something to get back on track.

Thanks for putting this out there.

I find deep cleaning one room per day, and light picking up of the rest the best plan, too! Good list!

Great list. I need to get more organized about cleaning. I have Cleaning ADD and just jump around too much. This helps. Thanks for posting
