Section Three: My favorite!

My cleaning schedule is next, and it makes me smile! :)

basic daily cleaning

1. Make all beds {note: I do NOT climb up & make the top bunk}

2. Clean out the kitchen sink. First thing in the morning and last thing at night make sure the sink is cleaned out, and dishes are put away or in dishwasher. If it's the dishwasher that is full, then clean that out to ready it for the next batch of dirty dishes. Empty the dishwasher first thing in the morning so it can be filled all day and then run that night.

3. Put away any clean laundry in baskets.

4. Clean off kitchen counter. Try to clean it off at regular intervals during the day. Make sure it's cleared off first thing in the morning, in the afternoon and again before going to bed.

5. Arrange the bathroom counter and wipe down counters and toilet. This takes 2 minutes.
