There are countless ways the United Way of Southwest Minnesota (UWSWMN) impacts our communities. The program that has made a difference in my family’s life is the Imagination Library program. My two children, Georgia (6) and Boden (3), have been enjoying the program since they were born.

 I had very good intentions to bust out the Organised Mum routine this week. I even made my bed on Monday morning, such a waste of time. But then we decided we should start  renovating our upstairs, which included renting a large floor sander, and chaos ensued.

Alrighty. Our second cleaning routine to try out is the Organised Mum routine, and no, I do not have a spelling error, as the Organised Mum, Gemma Bray, is most definitely a Brit.

So here is the rundown of the Organised Mum routine.

There are three different levels, daily jobs: day specific tasks, and Friday focus tasks.

So, overall, I did not mind the Clean Mama routine, but let’s be honest here, I do not feel the need to dust my whole house top to bottom each week.  I also do not feel it is necessary to wipe the baseboards.

Alright, I started my first day of the Clean Mama routine on Monday morning. Now, I am usually in the office all day Monday, but as we went to print on Friday due to New Year’s, I was at home and could fully invest in my Monday routine.

One of my favorite things about life is that if something isn’t working, and that something is within your control, you can change it. Writing Switchgrass School wasn’t working anymore, so I have now changed it to S.O.S. - Save Our Sanity!  It is a horrible name, but I am just going to own it and move on.
