Since it is Friday I thought I would address something that I can't remember being emphasized in my homemaking career, Weekend Prep.
To be fair, all the credit for this routine in my life is due to my Beloved. Beloved works his "regular job" Monday through Friday and on the weekends he pursues his passion - photography. I quickly realized that it was necessary for me to be prepared and have a company ready home for the whole weekend. To achieve this I developed my "Weekend Clean" routine that has served me quite well!!
Friday Afternoon:
Deep Clean the company/guest bathroom. Restock all supplies. Check on hand soap, and lay in fresh hand towels.
Vacuum all "company" areas, dust and wipe down the tables, lamps, and check tissue boxes.
Put a large pitcher of water in the refrigerator. Slice lemons if you'd like to offer them. Check ice supply.
I try to always have a scented candle ready to burn or wax melts to scent the house.
Several times over the weekend, I will pop into the guest bathroom and wipe it thoroughly down with antibacterial wipes that I keep just for this purpose. Check the toilet paper and switch out the hand towel. Refresh your water pitcher and check the ice supply.
Enjoy your weekend knowing that your home will do you proud!
That Housewife
