I have implemented new rules which include no going outside until everything is picked up, no snacks are taken out of the kitchen (this one is for Kensie, Cael already knows this), i will be moving all the toys downstairs to our somewhat of a playroom, deep cleaning I have scheduled for Friday mornings, and I'm trying to do a load of laundry every night with my big laundry day being on my days off. The kids have also started doing real chores which has helped.

I'm actually doing better on these than I thought. It really does help to write down your goals so you have something to work towards. Hopefully I can have a "done" by all 28 lines come January 28. wish me luck!
