Welcome to Month by Month:

This blog is my own little version of organization central. We touch on just about every aspect of home, family, and holiday organization here. It is my hope that by blogging my experiences, I can grow as an individual and perhaps inspire others to try new things and think about everyday life a little differently. So please join us in organizing for life every month of the year!

Cleaning Routines

 
Last week I wrote about using Cozi on your computer or phone to help you stay on track but if there are some of you that prefer a paper and pencil worksheet, this is a good one from Happy Money Saver.  I really like it because it is editable so you can personalize it for your own use. The "days" are already set though so if you have other rooms or don't like the daily room then this might not work for you. I mean I've just memorized the daily rooms I set up so changing them would really throw me off.

Here's another version from Zoo Cutie Printables.
 
I've struggled a lot over the years with which printable or even which schedule to use. I've set up notebooks, cleaning schedules and card files. NOTHING seemed to work or at least I didn't stick with it for very long. Now that I'm retired I realize that time really is a big factor.  Working full time and expecting to complete these daily lists of chores is just too much. But really the biggest deterrent is lack of routine. Develop a routine (make it realistic, even just two things each day) then stick with it. Over a period of time it will make a big difference and your house will be easier to keep clean.
 
By the way....today is Move It Out Monday.....so move out some clutter today and make it even easier to clean your home!

Here's another version from Samplewords.com. You can find it HERE.

Then there's a Martha Stewart one available over at her site. You can find the version HERE.   I'm not crazy about the format with the table set because it just uses more ink but you might like it or get ideas for items to add to your own list from hers!

Printable checklist
Over at SheKnows are great individual room lists for the livingroom, kitchen, bedroom , and bathroom. You can find those HERE.

Free Printable Holiday Cookie Recipe Cards

Well it's Wild Card Wednesday....which means you never know what you will find at Month by Month on Wednesdays!  I'm trying to keep a basic framework to my posting...Monday focuses on decluttering with Declutter Club Monday, tips, internet finds etc. Friday is Frugal Friday with assorted budget minded ideas. But Wednesday is Wild Card Wednesday...which means you never know what you'll find posted on Wednesday. Now I wouldn't want to get too predictable and boring would I? LOL

So today is a free printable link. I came across these little printable holiday cookie cards....too sweet and what a neat way to get organized. I was also thinking if you printed a bunch up and placed them in a little album they would make an awesome little gift!   You could also use them as tags on baked goodies you are giving as gifts.  You can find this great printable at Party Place!

Room of the Month Master List

You can keep track of your Room of the Month either by using the section on the Weekly List for Room of the Month To Dos or by creating a Room of the Month Master List on this form:
