I clean on Tuesdays (the day the babysitter comes) and thursdays (by then it's getting bad) and a little bit over the weekend. I LOVE the flylady Crisis Cleaning. I've got it on CD, and other than the whole SHOE business (who wears shoes in the house?!) I am a huge fan. She tells me what to do, in a sweet, loving tone, and tells me how proud she is of me. it makes me almost look forward to the experience. and yes, I know how sad that is.
