I read on another site (flylady, hope I’m allowed to put this here) that you do a room a day, 15 minutes at a time (so you have no excuse of I’m only home for 1/2 hour and thats not worth starting). I do washing everyday (so no longer spend all day saturday washing and drying)

Hope this helps

Rebekah, glad you were able to take something from the laundry post! I was just thinking today (as I trudged my way through “Laundry Day”) how glad I am that I’ve implemented it. As much as I despise it, I’m thrilled to get it all over and done with in one day.

Good luck to you on your May Spring Cleaning! :) Hugs!

I am a pro at organizing clutter. Putting them in lovely organized piles :) But finding a place to store it? not so good. I have a tendency to get behind then catch up. i can never seem to keep on top of it. but I am slowly learning. I finally just adopted a laundry day instead of doing it when it is needed at random! Angie’s blog helped me on that! it is so wonderful to have a laundry day! :) I guess I will tackle one thing at a time. I am trying to learn to be a creature of habit. With another move coming up hopefully soon, I am kind of forced into getting my life together..hehe.. one chore at a time. :)

I started to spring clean in April with a month of lists and everything! but alas, my teeth interfered and I got off schedule. So it is nice to know that while I make May my spring cleaning month, I wont be alone. ;) so here is to a successful Spring Cleaning Party!

I’ve never been the type for charts or lists so I just clean it when I see it needs to be done. I guess I kind of have a natural rotation through the house. I really can’t stand cleaning and my least favorite… my boy’s bathroom! Enter with caution. Love to organize though!

My cleaning style is more of squeeze the cleaning in when you can. No real assigned tasks, I just tackle whatever is in the worst shape when I get some spare time.

My least favorite cleaning task would be filing. I’ve been known to go whole years without filing (much to hubby’s dismay). My favorite would be organizing anything! I love organizing things. I guess I’m just weird that way.

Thanks for sharing everyone! I’ll go next :)

I’m an admitted organizing-junkie. I love it! I love finding new places for things and seeing them happily hanging out there ;) I do *not* like to clean however. Bathrooms are my downfall, but I do enjoy vacuuming! I do try to keep things clutter-free. I’ll do a quick sweep of everything each night so that when we wake in the morning everything feels at peace.

Keep sharing ladies!

I love organizing, purging, labeling and ordering, but I hate cleaning. I hate doing dishes, folding laundry, cleaning toilets, and scrubbing tile. I love a clean space but I just don’t like the elbow grease that is needed to achieve this. AND, with two toddlers at my heals who want to participate I don’t get to clean as much as I should. I am slowing scheduling in a time each week I do actual cleaning, and I am so lucky to have a wonderful husband who does dishes and laundry. (And doesn’t shrink stuff to boot.)
Thanks for the post!
