15 Minute Cleaning

Our house has been cleaner than ever the past week and it’s all due to a program my wife instituted called “15 Minute Cleaning.”  Every night at 7:45p, we change the cable channel to the radio station we like and everybody goes t work.  My 10 year old son is given a job, I pick something, my wife etc.  We all work non stop and hard for 15 minutes.  If you add it up, the three of us (the babies just play) working equals 45 minutes of hard work.  Done everyday this makes quite a difference.  Try it!

    Good idea!

    When The Boy’s hand is healed I’ll be trying this out.

    I get so tired of nagging him constantly to clean up his room or separate his clothes or whatever.

    If he hears “Just for 15 minutes”, I think I won’t have to harp so much!

    What a great idea. Your wife is smart. My youngest child is just about to leave home, so a bit late for me, but I know this would have worked!

So I started saying stuff like “I hope you have a sucky day.” or “I hope your day stinks” Also, while I don’t consider myself a superstitions person, I do
