Cleaning house

Yay me! I have finally worked out a schedule to keep my house sparkling clean. I'm a horrible house cleaner but I have finally worked out a system to keep my house clean (well at least picked up lol). Keegan has started doing chores which has worked out wonderfully. He now makes his bed every day, picks up his shoes and dirty clothes every night, and picks up all his toys before bed. It was a fight at first but with the prize box to motivate him it has come to be a habit. I don't even have to tell him to make his bed any more he tells me. He can also do it completely by himself. Which is a big accomplishment seeing as he is only 3 1/2! It's not always pretty but it is done.


We also have started recycling. Only our plastic and glass so far but you have to start somewhere right?


I know it's not a lot but I am proud of the accomplishments of April. I'm really excited about what we can do with May!

Me

My name is Mykah. I'm just a mom, well sometimes I'm a little more than that. I'm a woman trying to re-quit smoking (the first time didn't work so well). Trying to loose weight (finally getting somewhere thanks to my plexus slim yay). Unpacking into a much smaller house while trying to pick up after myself, my 3 1/2 year old boy, and my fiancé. Also trying to organize the house... I'm great at organizing I'm just not great at sticking to it or just leaving it alone. I have a tendency to reorganize over and over again which is why no one else can clean the house lol. Oh the things I do to myself. I didn't tell anyone that I was going to start this blog and I don't think I am going to I am mostly looking for accountability to get my goals accomplished. So if anyone out there is reading this and thinks it is boring... Well it's not for you now is it?
