The internet, especially pinterest, seems to be full of advice on how to keep your house clean. From cleaning schedules, to ways to fake a clean house. I have read it all. My favorite is the suggestion that it only takes 15 minutes a day to keep a house clean. Yeah, whoever wrote that must not have toddlers. I realize it's a season I am in. I clean and clean, then clean some more and by the time the kids are in bed, the house is still in disarray. Though, I promise you it truly is different messes than the ones I started the day with. But I have learned a way to keep my sanity with the mess still all there.
One room.
I make sure one room is clean in the evening for me to relax in. Generally, I focus on the living room. That way if the sink is full of dishes and the laundry (clean or dirty) is piled up, I can't see it from where I am sitting. All I see is a clean room that I get to relax in and not have to worry about the mess. It's a win in my book.
