One day at a time

I have been completely overwhelmed lately with how much work my house needs. We have lived here for a year now and has not had a good cleaning since we moved in. I was pregnant almost immediately after we moved in and then along comes 1 more.... more things to keep me busy like feeding a baby all day and an extra load or 2 of laundry a week and so on and so forth. So-I used to read the Fly Lady a long time ago and I remember one of the big things is you do a little bit at a time. My problem with this is that I like my house all cleaned at the same time. It just feels so good to have a clean house. I was laying in bed the other night unable to fall asleep because of all the things I needed to do were weighing heavy on my mind I looked up and the fan that is no longer spinning round and round because it is cold outside was staring at me with a thick coat of dust. Then I decided I would try the Fly Lady's old tricks. I am going to just clean 1 room at a time---but clean it WELL! I started yesterday and CAB and I cleaned mine and Chris's room. We changed the sheets, made the bed, cleaned the blinds, cleaned the fan, dusted all the furniture, swiffered all the dust from under our bed and dresser and mopped. It was so nice to have such a clean room! I felt like I actually accomplished something! I am going to continue through this week and I should be able to get the whole upstairs done, I hope! At least all our beds and baths will be done. I will let you know how it goes. Day one went well. I also found out that if you give CAB a wipe-she will go to town cleaning. She also likes to swiffer.
