My Daily Cleaning Checklist
Before I created a Daily Cleaning Checklist, I felt like I was cleaning all the time, yet my home was always messy. I would spend hours scrubbing on the weekend just to have it look like a dump again by Monday night. I would frantically clean and hide clutter before company came over, but despite my best efforts, it never stayed that way for more than a few days.
Unfortunately there isn’t some magic cleaning product or trick that will keep your home clean forever (I’m still looking though), but there is a way to save yourself a butt load of time and effort. Yep, it’s a daily cleaning checklist. I sound like a broken record over here, but so many people contact me because they feel overwhelmed and discouraged when it comes to housework. When I ask them what their daily schedule looks like, almost all of them say that they don’t have one.
A goal without a plan is just a wish. Stop wishing for a clean house and make it happen!
I get it. I’ve been there. The crappy part is that to make this daily cleaning routine thing work, you need to start with a pretty clean house. That is the hardest part, the initial big clean. Spend a weekend cleaning like the “queen is coming” and then start your daily routine on Monday morning!
The trick to making this work is forcing yourself to do a little each and everyday. You’re going to be tired and you’re going to feel like you don’t have time, but remember, this is going to save you time! No more cleaning for hours, looking for lost things or wasting time scrubbing. It’s adulting 101 you guys, we have to clean up after ourselves everyday…like it or lump it!

So download your own Daily Cleaning Checklist today! No more 3 day old dirty dishes to scrub or piles of clutter on your countertops! When you do a little bit each day, the mess and dirt never pile up and you can spend your weekends the way you’re supposed to…relaxing. Listen to my latest podcast here:

Help me pick a new logo
I am finally doing a “rebrand” of my blog, after 6 years of flailing and slapping together my hodge podge design, I am finally going to make this thing look legit.
I’m excited and anxious about this rebrand. I still don’t think of my blog as a grown-up real job and I struggle to admit that this is, in fact, what I do for a living. The reason I have a hard time calling myself a “blogger” is that, after all this time, I still have no idea what I’m doing. Without a “boss” or clear direction, I am constantly just “winging it” and I lack the self discipline to plan and structure this thing the way I should.
Enter Alice. A few weeks ago I received an email from one of you, a subscriber, who offered help with my photos for my book. Alice is a talented and amazing graphic designer/marketing genius and she has completely opened my eyes to all the things I should be doing (in the kindest and most helpful way) in order to make my blog look and feel like the real deal.
So, this is happening. It’s all because of Alice and I am so grateful for her, but I also want your input. Help me pick a LadyBug for my new logo! Which one do you like the best?
