. Anyway, have a good one to you. Neat blog and you have interesting contents here. 
hAVE A GREAT dAY! Thanks so much for your tag. 
I really appreciate you taking the time to drop by.
Have you watched Clean House on My Style Network? It’s the show where the crew comes in to pry clutter away from homeowners, sell it at a garage sale, and use that money for a home makeover. A recent episode depicted a woman with multiple health problems, her son with multiple Nintendo addictions, and their house with multiple clutter mayhem. Producer Niecy Nash asked her routine question, “What’s your excuse for living like this?”
Good question! The answers never veer too far away from “It’s too hard to delegate,” or “It’s easier to do it myself than to teach someone else to do it,” or “I don’t know where to start!”
Most times, people just need a plan. When everyone is in agreement with that plan, then progress can gain momentum. Niecy gives the family an assignment and sends them off on respite before the Big Reveal Day. The homework is to literally decide how to divvy out the home-work. Who will clean the table? Who will sweep the floor? Who will wash the dishes? Who will do a load of laundry?
When projects are specific, the results will also be specific.
Over the years, we’ve tried sticker chore charts, rewards and pro-rated allowance for chores done. As Niecy says, “We’re preparing our children for adulthood, to know how to take care of themselves when they’re out on their own.” We still haven’t found the perfect solution, but most days, we’re heading in the right direction toward our own “Clean House!”
