Cleaning House - My Chore Chart (And a GIVEAWAY)

Disclosure: The Purex brand provided me with a sample of Purex Crystals Aromatherapy in exchange for a product review, however, all opinions are my own.

I know I can't be the only one that at the end of the day, sometimes wonders "What did I do today?"

Most days consists of the same things as yesterday and the day before that- and sometimes my days run together. And when it comes to cleaning I'm sometimes asking myself when the last time the toilet got cleaned.

So last year I sat down and made a list of the things that needed to be done weekly, and what needed to be done daily, and what could be done monthly. I made myself a check list that looks like this:

I've slipped it into a page protector and check mark the days I'm going to do those chores.

I like the idea of having a couple of things to do each day instead of trying to get everything done in one days time. I typically  do my "chores" first thing in the morning before the kids are up or else they have to wait until naptime. Trying to sweep with Summer around is like brushing your teeth with an Oreo in your mouth- And some things are strategically placed. I clean out the fridge on Tuesdays because Wednesday is garbage day and I don't want anything gross hanging out in the garbage for too long.

On days where I wash bedding I get up and strip down all the beds first thing in the morning that way by nap time beds are put back together. (ideally)

Then I have daily chores. Several of these belong to Zachary and sometimes sweeping end up on this list, especially this time of year when the dog tracks in dirt like crazy. Then I'm sweeping twice per day. 

One thing I do several times per week is laundry. With 5 people in the house dirty laundry is something I never run out of. And you guys know I'm all about some good smelling clothes.  Lately, I've been using Purex Crystals Aromatherapy to help eliminate laundry odors.  Purex Crystals never disappoint me and always leave a fresh laundry scent.



Splitting everything up makes me feel like I'm doing something productive each day and keeping my house clean. At the end of the day I'm no longer asking myself what I did today but instead giving myself a little pat on the back for the house being clean.

Now for a little GIVEAWAY! I've got 3 coupons to giveaway for a free bottle of Purex Crystals Aromatherapy to try it out for yourself ---->
