Reclaim Your House Week goals
Thank you to my sister, Sho, for the idea of posting a list of chores to accomplish this week. Apparently we are now competing to see who can reclaim her house first! For anyone else who wishes to participate in my "Reclaim Your House Week" *grin* you are welcome to modify this list as needed. This just reflects my goals.

Does it seem like I have forgotten anything? Let me know if you think of something else.
Before you leave, here is a good read about the rewards for having a clean house. Hop over for inspiration and then get busy! Happy cleaning!

Well, it's not going to stay clean permanently, trust me. I think I could do this every month! You are absolutely right about those junk piles. My bedroom bookcase is particularly bad for erupting into a raging inferno of hot spots.
We have a portable dishwasher that is always heaped with stuff.
I got some laundry done yesterday, the tub in the front bathroom cleaned, the sink and toilet in the back bathroom, dishes, vacuumed and dusted the den, and vacuumed the front hall and living room rugs. Of course the dishes and the table were done, and I spot cleaned the floor under the breakfast bar. Of course, if you looked at my house this morning, you would not be able to tell a thing.
