Cleaning Lists - Saturday and Sunday

You will probably laugh at my lists, but doing it this way allows me to stay focused on what is important. Obviously some of the daily tasks disappear too, but I will just focus on my "assigned" Saturday and Sunday tasks!

Today is Saturday
1. Grocery Shopping and Errand Running
(if not done during the week, or if I will not be able to go on Tuesday, like this week when we will have company))
2. Gardening
3. Catch up activities
4. Family Play Time!
5. Prepare for Sunday


Today is Sunday
1. Church
2. Family Play Time
3. Rest

On Sunday I try to have a crock pot meal or something I can just microwave for lunch as we get home hungry, I try to have the preparation done on Friday. I try to always have a supper from the freezer so it is usually thaw, put in oven, serve with rice from the rice cooker and veggies.

Monday is Kitchen Day (with Daily tasks included)
Tuesday is Errand Day
Wednesday is Downstairs Day
Thursday is Upstairs Day
Friday is Project Day

Lists are based on a combination of what works for me and:

I'm so glad you leave Sunday for a day of rest. It makes such a difference to have a chance to rest and reflect.

We always have spaghetti on Sundays: it's easy, it's fast, and we never have to think about what we're having. My family did this growing up, too, and everyone in the family knew how to make it so my mom could have a break.
