The bad habit I have developed is to wait until almost deadline before I start working on things. Then I'm under pressure.

Mondays I clean the fridge and wipe down cabinets. I may have other things that get cleaned, (dusting, Vacuuming, etc.) but I know that Mondays I get a clean fridge. Once a month I wash my glassware. Lamp chimneys, crystal candle holders etc. It's not the making of beds that discourage homemakers, it's the extraCindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05801429343578237240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-63021828647323867582013-08-30T10:55:19.806-07:002013-08-30T10:55:19.806-07:00Dear Lydia,

I have made the habit of always putting the home in order before going to bed. I also enjoy working on one room at a time to deep clean, move things around change and out the decorations and such.<br />We need to help the new wives living from glory to gloryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07123718369605106023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-58981262738630465582013-08-28T11:09:38.878-07:002013-08-28T11:09:38.878-07:00A very nice post ~ so comforting to read the comme...A very nice post ~ so comforting to read the comments, too, and remind myself that life can, and does, interfere with our best~ laid plans.

Even something as simple as taking a shore first and getting dressed. For the day has to be listed. I think a notebook so better than pieces of paper, and it helps to look back and see what day you cleaned the fridge, etc or Whe you had company or went to get groceriesLydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15530969871397361970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-64731432251729591252013-08-26T08:59:36.068-07:002013-08-26T08:59:36.068-07:00Just reading your list makes me feel better. :)Just reading your list makes me feel better. :)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12503930255842185609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-44913748364711125692013-08-26T06:21:51.314-07:002013-08-26T06:21:51.314-07:00Wise words, as usual, dear lady.

Oh yes, I also have to help my neighbor haul hay this week--not a partucularly lady like task, perhaps, but necessary in my world.

I keep a little notebook (it was a bigger notebook in the past) just a little spiral bound one. I usually use a page per day and put the date and day at the top. I write down anything that needs to be done, menu for the day, phone numbers of people I need to call, grocery Katrinkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12809805272432812002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-47481566361348804872013-08-25T00:28:31.769-07:002013-08-25T00:28:31.769-07:00You are so sweet.
