Weekly Cleaning List

Does anyone have a weekly cleaning list that I could see?  I'm trying to put one together for the house, and I don't want to miss anything.

Re: Weekly Cleaning List

  • Major, can I just say I am totally jealous of your cleaning schedule?  I am a neat freak (grew up in an overly clean household), but with working full time and then some, I. just. don't. have. time.  My house is never as clean as I want it (especially with two cats), and it makes me sad :(.

  • Wow. Great list Major. I was thinking about this this past week- I too grew up in an overly organized house, and now, am too busy with both my jobs and everything- but just wanted to add-

    Mom always had a list of daily chores, weekly chores, and monthly chores. That helped take the load off a little, since some things need done every day, and some not so often. I should probably have her email me the list, huh? Stick out tongue

    Thanks, but just b.c I have it written down, doesn't mean it all gets done. I have a little helper (see sig) that creates more messes than she cleans up and I work full time too. I love a good lazy night like to other.

    That's actually kind of nice to hear.  I was sitting here wondering how long it takes you to get it all done and feeling bad because I never finish my list!

    To the original poster - I have Martha Stewart's cleaning schedule in a spreadsheet on my blog (link in sig) under the tag homekeeping.

    I'm a lurker but I just wanted to say that I love your blog!  Thanks for the advice.   I am now considering many suggestions that you've posted including Coachella, since I'm a huge ACL fan.

    Oh wow, thanks so much!! I've gone to every ACL except two or three, and I'll be missing this year due to the baby, I'm sure! I love Coachella.  We end up spending the same amount of $ to go out of state for a long weekend because lodging is cheaper (we camp during the festival).  I always felt bad that I didn't post more details of our weekends (we've been three times), it's a blast!
