Housekeeping

Sometime after Pete was born, I decided to actually put some effort into keeping the house clean. I made six to-do lists and put them in the front cover of one of those plastic-front notebooks, and I put the notebook in a cookbook stand on the kitchen counter, where I couldn’t miss it. And I did pretty well at crossing things off the list, for longer than I figured I would. But I’ve gotten a bit slack lately, and I’m thinking about revamping things and maybe even checking out the cult of the Flylady.

Do you have a cleaning to-do list? What’s on it, and how do you keep yourself motivated? If you don’t have a list, how do you tackle keeping the house clean?
