My Favourite Kind of To-Do List

To follow an extremely busy decluttering, cleaning, and organizing week over spring break, this has been another extremely busy week getting our house ready for company this weekend. 

Our winter was hard in every way except for the weather this year. We had illness after illness sweep through the house- from ear infection, scarlet fever/strep throat (twice), and the common cold (repeatedly), and with my dad's passing, the house got left alone for months. We had clean clothes to wear and food to eat, but everything else just got left. We even just took down our Christmas tree around the first day of spring (<Gasp> I know).

This list was my absolutely MUST do list from yesterday. It might be the first time ever that everything on any list of mine is crossed off. Granted, my larger, more expansive list for the week still has uncrossed items, but I'm still counting this as a win going into the last day before the weekend.

How about you? How do your lists usually look at the end of the day? What other life organizing things do you do to get things done? I love being organized in theory, but in practice I don't usually keep it together for long. One big unexpected event and it all goes away. Oh well...at least I always know what's for dinner!

I would love to hear how you tackle your housework and cleaning schedule. For myself, I always feel better in every possible way when my house is clear, organized, and uncluttered. Please give me your ideas!

​All the best to you this weekend, friends.
