A whole month of the year is behind us – if you’ve been working through the Start Here. calendar for January I hope you’ve met successes and made some progress in your home. If you’re new here, check out the first post in this series for a little more explanation.
What’s behind the success of any clean and organized home?
Consistency and follow through.
I’m calling the series Start Here. because without starting something, you’ll never finish anything. Don’t get bogged down in the every day messiness that is life, you have to start somewhere to get anywhere and that’s what we’re doing today. Start here.
Ready? We all have to start somewhere – let’s Start Here.

I can’t seem to get the calendar to work right. I ordered the download and where the writing should be it is just lines. Not sure what I’m doing wrong.

Post authorOh no! Make sure you don’t have it in ‘preview’. There’s something with MAC OSX that defaults to preview instead of Adobe Reader. Once you’ve verified that, make sure you have the most updated version of Adobe Reader (free):

Consistency is one of the most important parts of creating and maintaining a clean and organized home. No one is going to be able to deep clean and organize an entire household in one session. With small efforts every other day, you can maintain the household to a pristine level without having to devote several hours every day. Not only is the physical toll much less, but psychologically you are being presented with a lot less to clean up on a daily basis. Stay consistent, tackle (start and finish) small tasks every other day, chip away at big tasks, and always be mindful of the messes you create.

I wanted to thank you for your organization when it comes to cleaning. I hate cleaning our house because it is overwhelming and seems like an endless job. I found you on Pinterest and printed out the printable for January. I have been following your schedule for 2 weeks and even my husband noticed a difference. I feel like it’s easier to clean our house a little bit everyday. This month, I will try to incorporate the rotating tasks as well. Thank you! Who needs a maid when you have this calendar!!! 🙂

Hi I love your calendar. Is there any way I can edit it for myself. I would like to change a few things but keep most of the information the same as yours. For example change my days for certain tasks.

Hi,
Just wanted to say thank you so much for all the free printables and advice. I have 3 boys 16,11, and 4 and my hubby is in the military stationed in ny and i am in nj so he is only home on the weekends. So most of the cleaning, cooking, and running kids around are all on me. Everything you have provided is very helpful thank you soooo much:)
