If your house is a mess, so is your life

January 21, 2010

You need to be on a schedule and to get organized if you want your life to get easier. If you are constantly playing ‘catch-up’ in your home you will feel overwhelmed. It is easy to get yourself together. No matter how far you have let it go, you can start now and yes, the counter is under there somewhere.

Pick a room today and begin getting your life under control. When your home is clean and beautiful you feel better. I don’t care how many women can argue that they just don’t have time to clean, the fact is if you do a little each day you won’t feel so resentful of the job. And hey, like a friend of mine said when I was whining about doing the laundry, “what are you complaining about? You have a washer and dryer.” It was a simple statement and so true. We could be dragging the clothes to the laundromat or worse yet, dragging them around in a plastic bag on the streets. So, let’s be happy we’re not homeless and let’s get our houses together. I am not expecting you to be a slave to your home. In fact I know if you follow my schedule you will have the afternoons free to do what you want so what are you waiting for. Let’s get moving.

Before you can get on schedule you have to do a few things. Declutter and declutter. We collect so much junk over the years. Get rid of it. We hold on to clothes we know we will never wear again, get rid of it. We buy a lot of things we don’t need, get rid of it. Stop putting this off. Once your house is clean and organized you will feel a weight lifted off your shoulders.
