Do you remember my "30 Before I'm 30" list from last month? If not, I'll remind you. One of the things that I wanted to accomplish was to make a cleaning schedule and stick to it. Well, I'm going to cross that off the list! I made a cleaning schedule a few weeks ago, tweaked it a bit here and there, but am consistently trying to stay on top of it. By no means am I hitting everything on the list for the week, but it has allowed me to be more in a groove.
I made my list and then found this free printable. I inputted my cleaning items on the printable and then I printed it out. Easy peasy!

Having a daily "chore" item has definitely kept me more on target with cleaning. I would probably say that our house is more cluttered with stuff right now (because I'm cleaning more regularly but not picking up as much), but is definitely more clean that it has been. Does that make sense? lol.
I also have found an easier way to keep the shower clean, so I thought I would share.
I bought a little scrubby that you can fill and I filled it with vinegar and dish soap. Every other day or so, I just spend thirty seconds and clean a part of the shower. Right now I'm trying a 50/50 mix but it should probably have a little more dish soap. It works and is so fast! I'm all about fast and easy!

My dad always used to clean the shower with vinegar and I hated the smell as a kid. I can't get myself to do it at home even though vinegar is great.
The list sounds great

Vinegar does smell quite a bit, but I'm getting used to it. =) You can't beat how cheap it is for sure!

What a great printable! I too struggle with getting in a cleaning groove. I would love to try to get more cleaning done during the week so I don't feel like I have SO much to do on the weekend. Deep cleaning doesn't happen much in our house....
Love the shower cleaning tip with the little scrubber brush - I'm going to have to try that.

I don't have the time constraints that you do through the week, but I'm just not a great cleaner! I wish I was, but I'm not. On the other hand, I totally get stressed and disgusted with myself when it's dirty. It a no-win situation! Totally try the bath cleaner thing, it's working wonders at our house!
