Hello everyone, it is a blessing to be alive and healthy today being the third day in the month of may. Here is my entry for the hiveghana weekly prompt wk48.
Staying Organized keeps one sane and happy. Let me make this personal . Being able to organized myself, my room , my academics schedule, and literally everything concerning me gives me a sense of growth and maturity. It makes me feels this sense of" Yes your matured babygirl". Yes there is bound to be mess around us once in a while but trust me staying in a family compound where everyone has free access to the house that's both the adult and children is a different story entirely.
Let me talk about staying Organized at home.
So here is the thing, we are just four in our family exclusive of the extended family and we are living in a family compound so I as the first daughter of the house have a whole lot of responsibility in making sure that not just the home but everyone is okay, yeah because at the end of the day am the only girl at home the rest are all out to hustle and most have graduated so waiting for their NYSC posting and lot more.
HOW DO I STAY ORGANIZED AT HOME
Keeping the house tidy is more like and everyday duty for me but trust me if I am to do that daily I'll probably fall sick. Most of the reason I become lean whenever am home for holidays or weekends.
So firstly
I set a timetable for I and my brother: This has actually helped me for some months now, because each of us knows when he or she is to carry out a particular chores or task. And the suitable punishment for failure to do so is "NO FOOD". But most of the times boys will always be boys and I'll end up doing the duties myself reason i started with it has worked for some months.
Secondly:
I try as much as I can to wash the dishes immediately everyone is done eating tho sometimes it flops me lolz. Compiling plates doesn't just cause microbial infestation/ or diseases but it makes the whole house stink and add extra workload for the next days activities.
Again i sweep once I feel sand on the floor. This is also tiring because everyone is walking in and out every sec and no matter how I shout from now till tomorrow nothing changes. So i I try sweeping morning and evening that way the house would be a bit organized and comfortable.
Then I make sure i do a thorough cleanup on Saturdays. That is to say Saturday are always my most stressful day of the week when am home. I clean the toilets, kitchen, dining and living rooms.
