When the weekend comes, I hide my broom, vacuum, microfiber
clothes, green cleaners and DO LIFE!
I enjoy sleeping in and big, family brunches. The only projects I may do
are those that renew me from the inside out. I enjoy date time with my hubby and dinner out
with the kids. Bike rides and family
outings are not limited due to backlogged household chores! The possibilities are numerous and household cleaning tasks aren’t strapping me down!
Green clean free
weekends that work! With the right
habits in place, it will become second nature for you and your family not to do cleanup chores on the weekend.
Do weekends free from cleaning sound like freedom? Then you have the motivation to make this
become your reality! How about a few encouraging
tips to get you started!
Tips toward
clean-free weekends:
BAN HOUSEHOLD CHORES on
Saturday and Sunday.
Create weekday -daily green cleaning
tasks for your kids. Let’s get cracking on raising responsible adults! Don't let the kids run out of supplies! Go to: Brightly Green Store
Spot clean in between
activities. If you have 10 or 15 minutes between activities, clean an area;
a sink, a toilet a window or two.
Nightly roundup. Everyone gets in on this and gathers
misplaced items in the rooms and puts them where they belong. Make everyone responsible for their own
bedrooms + everyone pitches in straightening the family/kitchen rooms.
Let it go! Is there a room in the house that did not get
green cleaned this week? Don’t worry
about it, it will be there next week!
One word of advice my husband gave to me years ago that I
would like to pass on to you, “Do what only YOU can do!” If there is a task the kids are able to
accomplish, delegate it to them!
The whole family will appreciate having weekends free from
household work! Build relationships and
family ties instead! Give yourself MARGIN
for personal renewal too!
Freeing your weekends will help you be more productive come
Monday & make you sharper for the week to come!
Happy Clean-Free Weekending!
