Fall Organization Goal

With the seasons changing and the impending arrival of my 3rd baby, I thought it was high time I got a little more organized. One thing I've always wanted to change was my house - I never feel like it's clean enough. With that being said, the chores can sometimes get overwhelming since I'm the only one that cleans here. So, to help relieve some of the burden, I've decided to make myself a monthly chart and routine.

I first listed every room in my home, and then made 3 columns for each: daily, weekly and monthly. Then, I started listing tasks that I do with those frequencies. Anything that's less than monthly I put down as monthly because lets face it - the cabinet fronts could stand to be washed more and I really do need to stay on top of cobwebs a little better.

Then I made some blank calendars and I will mark down each room at various points - weekly and monthly to know what to do and when. Hopefully this helps streamline my cleaning routine to leave more time to play with the kids and get work done. :-) I'll let you know how it goes!

P.S. - Does anyone have a home command center? Like a place for grocery shopping lists, cleaning lists, contact numbers, etc? I'm thinking of making a binder for one to keep everything in one location.
