Jenn, I was just telling dh that we should have done all concrete floors with drains in each room and a water spigot on each wall so cleaning would simply involve a hose, lol!Tara

I need to do an all-out cleaning too. Although now when I tidy up around the house, before I put something up I look at it and say "would I want to pack you up and move you across the country?" If the answer is no, I get rid of it.Wife of a surgical fellow; Mom to a busy toddler girl and 5 furballs (2 cats, 3 dogs)

Haven't looked at flylady in quite a while, but I'm having good luck keeping up with the steady mom system: http://www.steadymom.com/2009/02/org...ing-house.html (I'm not an adherent of the rest of steady mom--I find her a bit twee, I guess--but her cleaning system works for me.)
Similar but far too elaborate for me is Motivated Moms: http://www.motivatedmoms.com/2010HalfSize-sample.pdf For some people more ticky-boxes to check off = more joy, though, so I can see how that would work.Married to a hematopathologist seven years out of training.
