Making Your Home Sing Monday – The General Details
April 19th, 2010 | 
Author: Making Your Home Sing Monday. I didn’t think I was going to join another meme. They do take up time and many times they were took me out of my regular schedule so things would get out of sync. But alas during the Ultimate Blog Party hosted by 5 Minutes for Mom I found out about Moms the Word and Making Your Home Sing Monday.
Monday is my day to get the home back in order from a busy weekend. I know a lot of people clean up house on Saturday and the vintage schedule was to clean up on Friday but for me it’s Monday. I clean the bathrooms, do oodles of laundry, straighten up and even start some deep cleaning that I’ll finish up later in the week.
So LA LA LA LA LA LA LAAAAAAAA! Today to make my home sing I’m doing the regular Monday duties of cleaning two of the three bathrooms, washing towels, kitchen linens, darks, kid’s clothes, and work clothes, and cleaning up from the birthday party we hosted yesterday. I’ll also start spring cleaning the master bedroom.
And get this. Our vacuum died a couple of weeks ago. We have a new being delivered this week but I’ve been making do with a handvac. Oh well. No biggie.
We also have been deep into perfecting our cooking and that really makes our home sing but I have write up another post for that. It is involved.

For me, Monday is the start of the work week so expecting to get any cleaning done that day is unrealistic. Likewise, I am exhausted by Saturday, so that is my day to relax & see family & friends, perhaps working in the garden but otherwise trying to get outside & get some air after being stuck in an office all week. So, for me, Sunday is the perfect day to clean. I couldn’t face it on Saturday after the work week & I’m just too tired & short of time on weekday evenings. I do all of my cleaning on Sunday, including laundry, in one fell swoop.
I have made a checklist with the tasks for each room & I check them off as I do them. It’s on my computer so the software program is set to show them due again the following week. If I skip something, I can instantly see it as overdue by the date, and I can add monthly, seasonal & one-time-only tasks to each room’s list as needed.
It’s nice to meet you! Glad that you joined in. I love the posts @ MomstheWord. They are very encouraging.
I am so excited that you joined us today! I know what you mean about Monday being a great day to get everything back into shape after the weekend.
Some weekends are fairly quiet. But some are so busy that we’re running in and out, and I must admit that I don’t always do my daily pickup. So, Monday rolls around and look out!!!!!!
I hope you got lots done today, and thanks for linking up!
