Getting Your Home Back in Order

March 24, 2008 |

For those looking for the menu plan, scroll down to the next post :).

This week Crystal is encouraging us to get our home’s straightened up after the holiday weekend. We do our major cleaning on Saturday’s so the house wasn’t too messy. Our friends came over on Easter and stayed late so the usual before bed cleaning didn’t happen until this morning.

Here are some pictures…

Crystal suggested that we get dressed for the day before we started our cleaning…. my pajamas are just too fun to not clean in them.

The Happy Housewife

    I too am trying to clean up from the weekend. We were not home a lot this weekend, so when we were things just got thrown somewhere LOL. I am fighting a cold or something today so I am trying to get things done. I understand what you are saying :) I did clean the dining room first b/c I got a flower from church yesterday and it just didn’t look right sitting on the table with clutter all around it. Now it looks beautiful :)

    Great job! Now I need to go do my own cleaning. I did most of the cooking yesterday for my extended family so now begins the great cleanup!

    Wow, great job! I still have a long way to go. (Taking blog breaks isn’t helping, lol)

    Love your pj’s! I clean in mine too. Don’t tell.

    Looks like it didn’t take long for you to clean up.

    I need to do the same thing. I love your blog! I found you thru the Ultimate Party and wanted to invite you over to my site for a fun contest this week. You could be my lucky winner or my unfortunate loser . . . either way, I hope you laugh a little.

    I know Fly Lady says to get dressed first thing down to your shoes, but I KNOW I clean better when I do it in my pajamas!

    HI!
    Really looks easy when I’m looking your shoots…you have beautiful home,and if your kids are helping for cleaning,you have a bless…I don’t like clutter around but also,me and my Honeys(like I do call my kids),don’t like trowing the god stuffs in our life :) (they are helping me too) so, we stockpile everything in the garage..,we trapped our dear past there!
    They are helping me always for cleaning(very god at that),and when came the day for riding of all those piles cluttering our garage,..we avoided the guilt,and save sooooooooo much money in our budget,when found out that # Garage Sale Riches …we were so happy,pass a great time with our neighbours,and at the same time earn some money!
    Try it,you’ll love it!

    Best wishes for you!
