Motivated Mom Chore Planner

Since my husband and I both work full time...the only time that we have to catch up on the housekeeping is either at night or on the weekends. It seemed as if by time we got home from work we were too exhausted and the task was too overwhelming. So, we would take a Saturday and clean the house from top to bottom. But, as you can imagine....that too get's old because who wants to waste their Saturday cleaning? Not me!

That's when (we) made the decision to start hiring someone to at least clean our house one day a month. This was AWESOME. It was my way of splurging. Some women get their nails done, some get their hair colored....me, I hired a cleaning lady.

Everything was going great....until I decided that we truly didn't need that luxury any more and could save that money for other things instead. I knew there had to be a way that we could make it work and do it ourselves. That's when I found the Motivated Moms Chore Planner
I couldn't believe that it was literally only $8! That's it! What did I have to lose?

The Motivated Moms Chore Planner gives you 365 days of tasks to help keep you on top of your cleaning. I love that it even gives you things that you wouldn't normally think to do....like cleaning off all your light switches or the front of your dishwasher.

My husband has been such a blessing throughout this whole thing. He agreed in the beginning to help me with this endeavor. Each night he will pick a couple things on the list to do and I will pick a few things to do. Eventually, we would even like to involve the kids. They can rewards for doing their share of the chores.
I have to tell you....it's a lot of work to keep on track with my planner. But I feel so much better about my home. I love the feeling of accomplishment that it gives me.

BUY IT:
if you are like me and you fee like you just can't keep up, I highly recommend getting the Motivated Mom Chore Planner.  At $8 you can't lose. I also have a few friends who are doing it also. We send pictures Twitter (#MotivatedMoms) from our phones to help keep each other accountable.

WIN IT:
Now you can win your own copy of the Motivated Moms Chore Planner. All you have to do is tell the area of your housekeeping that you get the most behind in.

With a 6monh old and being a stay at home mom, suprisingly I find myself behind in almost every chore! I hate cleaning bathtubs and showers though,yuck! And the laundry never seems to end...
I hope I win! :)

Rhonda March 27, 2010 6:35 PM  

I seem to always stay behind with my laundry! I would love to win!

Susanne March 28, 2010 9:53 AM  

I am most behind in storage areas--primarily the space under the stairs. My husband is threatening to get in there and do it himself (that's not good, because he will throw out everything in there!)

Susanne March 28, 2010 9:57 AM

Jenn S. March 28, 2010 7:19 PM

I'm most behind in the master bedroom. I always do the rooms that others see first, and often it goes neglected. Thanks so much! pamelashockley(AT)netscape(DOT)net
