PLANNING!

I have been working on lesson plans and using this...

It's awesome, I'm just saying.  No, seriously. It's great, exactly what I needed to plan this next year.  I highly recommend it. (No, I'm not getting paid for this. The 'Well Planned Day' people have no idea who I am.)

Work Clothes Wednesday

Okay, So I found something that really works for me: A Laundry Schedule! Yes, I know this is not a new idea for some of you. Here's how it works:

Monday: The Boys (ages 3 and 9 months)

Tuesday: The Girl (age 7, and goes through a few outfits a day) On a side note, I really do try to tell her to hang her clothes back up when she only wears them for a few hours. She's getting better about it, and I

'm doing less laundry!

Wednesday: Hubby's work clothes and socks

Thursday: Sheets, Towels

Friday: My Clothes and Hubby's 'nice' clothes

It goes really well for me, as long as no one messes it up. Now, since we manage (and clean) some daily rental cabins, more laundry goes into the mix on some days. This schedule is not adhered to perfectly, but when it is, the stress of laundry dissapears almost entirely! So next step: A cleaning schedule...HaHaHa! We'll see.
