Where do I start???

I have to start somewhere but where will that be. 

One of the first things I've done is made a list of goals I want to achieve over the course of this project:

• Create a cleaning schedule (daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly).
• Track my household finances.
• Plan out my meals.
• Lower my spend on groceries.
• Create an area for all important files.
• Create a binder or Filofax that contains all information above.
• De-clutter my home.
• Sort, sell and donate unwanted belongings.

I'm sure as time goes on I will add things to this list but for now the above seems a little daunting, as I've mentioned in previous posts I'm very lazy and all that seems like hard work :)

To start today I think my best bet is to do what I hope will become my daily cleaning schedule. 

1. Make the bed.
2. Hoover/Vacuum high traffic areas.
3. Put away or de-clutter items on coffee & dining room tables.
4. Collect dirty laundry.
5. Wipe clean kitchen sink, counters and stove top.
6. Wipe clean bathroom sink.
7. Bleach and clean toilet.
8. Wash & dry any dishes immediately after use.
9. Take out the rubbish/trash.

This above list might look like day to day chores for you but for me the lazy lady I usually make the bed and wash the dishes but don't dry them. I know its terrible but that's all changing.

My next blog post will be on Wednesday where I hope to share with you my full cleaning schedule and the method used to make said schedule.
