During our first week at home, I decided that cleaning should be my responsibility. After all, I didn’t want to ask G to clean toilets after he had worked for 10+ hours and I had, well, watched six episodes of The Office.

Instead of wondering when the last time I vacuumed, I decided to work off of a little sheet I found on Pinterest. What can I say… a to do list makes everything better, especially when it’s prettier to look at it!

Some days I decide to double up, but usually that’s only because I’ve skipped something the day before.  And psst, don’t tell anyone but I only do the baseboards that don’t have furniture in front of them.

The best part of this list is that in our size apartment, if I do this every week, it usually only takes about 15-30 minutes a day.

What are ways that you make cleaning easier?
