My Weekly Tasks

April 14, 2010 By Dana White | 10 Comments

It's Wednesday. I'm rushed for time. Same old story as every Wednesday. So since I haven't been home and therefore haven't made any progress, I thought I'd share my weekly tasks and how they're working for me, all together in one post. Here goes: Monday - Laundry. Tuesday - Bathrooms. Wednesday - Out all day, but I do my grocery … [Read more...]

Focus Check Friday – The Very First! Come Join In!

May 14, 2010 By Dana White | 16 Comments

It's Focus Check Friday! Last week, I shared how the one thing that has made the biggest difference in cleaning up this mess has been . . . . focus. It's easy for me to have selective vision, ignoring the mess and only seeing the fun stuff. But then the mess gets so big that I can no longer pretend it isn't there. Keeping my focus on my home … [Read more...]

Accepting How I Learn

April 27, 2010 By Dana White | 102 Comments

  First, let me clarify a few things. 1. Flylady is awesome.  When people ask me for advice here, I try to make it clear that I'm no expert when it comes to cleaning, organizing, etc. and I generally send them her way.  If you want to know what it takes to get your house under control, she's your woman.  And she'll tell you exactly … [Read more...]

The Wonderbra Avalanche

March 29, 2010 By Dana White | 12 Comments

No, not an avalanche of Wonderbras. In this metaphor, the Wonderbra is not the snow, it is the idiot who whistles or claps or whatever and causes the avalanche. Actually, it is probably the whistle itself . . . and I am the idiot. Last week was a bit crazy, but I was holding on. I did enough of my daily tasks to keep things sane, and did … [Read more...]

Kids’ Daily Checklist – Chore Chart

March 10, 2010 By Dana White | 16 Comments

It has now been 5 ½ weeks since we started using this chore chart with my 6 and 8 year old children, both boys. If you are a regular reader, you know how much chore charts/checklists for my kids scared me. It wasn’t that I didn’t think my kids could do it. It wasn’t that I couldn’t find one with age appropriate chores. It was me. Any system … [Read more...]

28 Day Organizing Challenge – Office Clutter Corner

March 1, 2010 By Dana White | 6 Comments

February is over. Oh my. At the beginning of February, I joined in on Orgjunkie's 28 Day Organizing Challenge. So today I'm going to reveal the results of my labor from the entire . . . morning. Yes, morning. I'm a procrastinator, and although I thought I'd work on this little by little all month, the month pulled a fast one on me and … [Read more...]

Reworking my Laundry Routine . . . Again

February 22, 2010 By Dana White | 16 Comments

Laundry and I are not on the best of terms. I feel that he/she/it is is needy, high-maintenance, never satisfied, ungrateful, and constantly undermining any efforts I make. I've tried. Really I have. I added it to my list of daily non-negotiable tasks a very long time ago. I even gave it several weeks of focus, trying to come up with a way … [Read more...]

Found A Great Cleaning Schedule . . . Shoved in the Bottom of a Drawer

February 2, 2010 By Dana White | 14 Comments

As I consolidated my craft closet and my craft/storage cabinet last week, I ran across something that I received at a mom's group meeting years ago. An older lady from the church spoke to us about home management. She had made up a cleaning schedule that she passed out. Obviously I knew I needed it because I kept it all these years. All these … [Read more...]

Scared of a Plan

February 1, 2010 By Dana White | 2 Comments

When I went to Orgjunkie.com to link my Menu Plan (and account of my insane and exhausting grocery trip) for the week, I saw that she's having a 28 day organizing round-up. I've successfully ignored these things in the past. But do you ever see or hear something and realize that you can't ignore it anymore? I've looked at her organizing … [Read more...]
