“Hope smiles from the threshold of the year to come, whispering, “It will be happier”” – Alfred Lord Tennyson
Today’s chore list:
- Shower and dressed. Use some of the nice smelling stuff you have on hand.
- Make your bed. Fluff your pillows. Put the pretty throw on.
- Quick once over of your bathroom. Put away makeup, put out fresh towels, do you have enough paper goods available?
- Do one load of laundry. Wash, Dry and Put Away.
- Since this is a Tuesday it is my desk day. I got a little behind over the holidays so I will have a little catch up today. Are your thank you notes sent? New insurance card in your purse? Do you know your bank balance?
- Also on Tuesday is my additional bathroom day. My house has 2 So I will do a more detailed cleaning than normal in this room today.
- Since it is the 1st it is my living room pick up day. Good thing too after last night. So is all the trash out? Coats hung up. Sofa look inviting? No dirty dishes or full trash cans. No dusting and vacuuming unless you are feeling really inspired. Just a pick up.
- What’s for supper? – I have my menu below for inspiration.
- Is your kitchen tidy? Dishes in the machine, counters wiped, trash empty, floor swept and coffee pot ready for tomorrow?
- Are your clothes ready for tomorrow? Include undergarments and accessories.
Supper:
