Savvy Housecleaning Schedule

I'm always looking for ways to organize and cut my cleaning time, so I was impressed by fragiletearz' incredibly organized housecleaning schedule. When I wrote to ask if she'd mind if I used her schedule for a post, she said that she was excited that her nerdiness would be helpful to others. (I think that there are a lot of house and design nerds on Casa, fragiletearz, so you're in good company!)

If I had a system like this, I'd be much less apt to forget those vastly forgettable tasks, like watering the front porch flowers (sorry, sad, parched geraniums) and dusting the blinds. Fragiletearz also has created a pint-sized cleaning schedule for her daughter. I'll have to steal the idea when I get around to having my own kids!

    Wow. I'm impressed. I scribble lists but I like how this breaks everything down. Am a big believer in a little something each day versus the major overhaul. I am excited to try this. Plus I love that Sunday is a rest and relax day.

    Good to know I'm not the only one who makes up lists like this! I don't have a chart, rather I have a master list saved on my computer and then I make up a monthly list of things to do/clean, and four weekly schedules. I haven't gotten into enough of a routine to have certain days for tasks but I may get there yet!

    No the P trap is the pipe under your kitchen sink....Kinda shaped like a p, Stuff gets stopped up there because of it's shape (a safe guard against losing something down the drain)after awhile of never being cleaned out, it'll stop up completely....I learned my lesson so I over clean mine, it's really easy to do ....
    and FYI I don't schedule sex LOL

    I love this list! I have made a smaller version for myself - my Outlook calendar keeps track of things I need to do each week and repeats them forever. Having everything written down really does help me keep up with housework, without letting it become a big burden!

    How do you clean the P trap? Do you take it off to clean, or do you use something to get down there from the drain? Very curious...and eager to start cleaning mine, too!

    This is a FABULOUS list, and just the inspiration I needed to get out of the messy rut I constantly find myself in. Thanks, fragiletearz!
