I clean as I go when I’m cooking, gives me something to do when waiting for the timer to go off, and makes for super easy clean up after meals. I also refuse to leave dirty dishes over night, with the exception of a pot or pan that MUST be soaked. And the water dishes are left to soak in over night is just a mess to have to deal with first thing in the morning!! 🙂 <3

In reply to Lacey Schoeneman. Great advice Lacey -- my kids certainly do their share. That way i can concentrate more on deep cleaning and organizing. :D

One thing that I try to do every day is get up before the rest of the family and have some quiet time before the days starts. I have my cup of coffee and browse Pinterest. It both energizes and inspired me for the coming day.
I menu plan in Thursday and grocery shop on Fridays. I plan each days main meal so I don’t have to worry about dinner. I take into consideration the weather (who wants to eat soup on a 90 degree day) and our schedules (some days need to be crock pot days) and then it’s done. I check my menu each morning and do any morning prep that needs to be done. Easy and stress free.
I think what really makes housework go smoothly though is that I don’t do it all. My kids have their own to do lists every morning which include picking up their rooms and then one or two chores around the house. They sweep or I’ll send a double team to do the bathroom (one picks up the other wipes down) or they’ll pick up the living room, vacuum, pick up all the outside toys, take out the garbage… It makes a HUGE difference.

In reply to Hilary. That's so great! Nurses are ridiculously underappreciated. Thanks for all you do!

In reply to Krystle. Yes, I realize that being a mom is my job on the days I'm not getting paid to be a nurse. :)
