Is anybody doing spring cleaning along with me? According to Clean Mama, whose system I am attempting to follow, says "....last week we cleaned the baseboards, did deep dusting and light fixtures last week. If you didn’t, catch those things up as you’re deep cleaning the kitchen this week.
Monday - Clean Toilets - tank to floor, - Clean + Clear Bathroom Counters, Clean Bathtubs + Showers (Bathrooms Day)
Tuesday - Launder Curtains/Drapes + Clean Blinds (Dusting Day)
Wednesday (Vacuuming Day)
Thursday - Wash Bathroom Floors (Floor Washing Day)
Friday - Wash Interior/Exterior (?) Windows, Clean Window Sills + CATCH UP ON ANYTHING THAT DIDN’T GET DONE (Catch-All Day)
Saturday - Wash Bath Mats + Shower Curtains (Sheets + Towels Day)"
Two things here; first, I love how she lays it all out for me. It's not overwhelming, and it is 100% doable from my standpoint. Second, and a full disclosure here, I missed doing the baseboards in the bathroom last week. Yep, I somehow skipped them. I'm doing them today,(Even though Clean Mama said Friday is catch up day. I am inspired today to do them!) along with the toilet, and done a week late is okay by me.
I am not at all sure what happened to me last week, but somehow I couldn't get myself caught up enough to share my Easter tablescape ideas. They will be here this week, for certain, as I am planning not one, but two small gatherings next week! I am planning one with my grandsons, and one with a friend. If I can find time to photograph it, I will also share my Easter breakfast table plans. (No promises on that one, since I am desperately trying to underpromise and over deliver here this week!)
How about you? Are you feeling like you are ready for entertaining in small groups yet? I am feeling guardedly optimistic that this summer is going to be much less isolated, and I am so looking forward to it! We have a nearly six month old grandson we have yet to be able to meet, and the thought that we just might get to travel and see him, along with his brother and sister are at the top of my list, as you can imagine....
