I am a huge fan of FlyLady.net and all the help she provides for those of us who just seem to be house managment challenged! Thanks to her I have come up with routines to help keep me on task. They are broken down as follows:
Morning
Make Bed
Check Calendar
Empty Dishwasher
Prepare bottles/breastpump
15 mins. in my Hot Spot (usually my dining room table)
Swish and Swipe toilets
Pull items for dinner
Place all children/dog/mommy items needed for the day at the door on Launch Pad
Remember Cell Phone!!
Afternoon
Start Laundry/fold any laundry from night before if it didn't get done
Sort/purge mail
Prepare snack

Work on Daily Mission
Evening
Load/run dishwasher
Sweep floors
Laundry into dryer
Collect dirty laundry
Empty garbage
Clean bottles/breastpump parts
Ready lunch items
