I agree with you housework is definitely a snowball... if I ignore it it piles up and and threatens to overtake me but if I do a little bit all along the way I can get it conquered...Sounds like you're getting it under control!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00650402139237378121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3743111212995775368.post-47228273718132613952014-06-15T17:07:18.849-04:002014-06-15T17:07:18.849-04:00Oh, this is me. I'm definitely not a Type A Pe...Oh, this is me. I'm definitely not a Type A Personality - but I do love to live in an orderly, pretty space. Like you, I keep common areas in working order, but I get overwhelmed at the thought of deep cleaning the house. <br /><br />This week I focused on forward motion. I realized housework is a snowball - in both good ways and bad. =) So I set a few goals every day, and focused on just doing those things. I'm also trying to do the small maintenance things (unloading the dishwasher) that keep the whole day moving in a forward direction.<br /><br />I'm also bad about creating hot spots - one corner of the common area where everything gets stacked, rather than put away. So next week I'm focusing on my current hot spot (the piano in the dining room) and the kids' play closet. Little by little, forward motion - that is my goal. If I can just make sure the snowball is rolling in the right direction, we do all right. Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16415121860450669768noreply@blogger.com
