Homemaking 101 – A New Series

Sometimes it’s a good idea to set aside preconceived notions and reconsider everything from the ground up. Whether you are relatively new to homemaking or, like me, have been keeping house for decades, I think we could all use a fresh approach now and then. That’s why I’m beginning a new series here on Life With Dee – Homemaking 101.

Homemaking 101

 

Together we will explore every aspect of keeping house from cleaning to budgeting to meals and much more. I’ve been homemaking for 4 decades and while I feel like I’ve got a handle on most of it, I must admit it feels a bit stale. I want to shake things up, explore new methods and most of all, change my attitude about it. 

Here is a partial list of Homemaking 101 topics we’ll be addressing in the coming weeks:

• Daily upkeep
• Setting up a laundry system
• Weekly cleaning
• Monthly cleaning
• Creating a homemaking binder/notebook
• Decorating on a budget
• Stocking a pantry
• Meal planning and grocery shopping
• Basic cooking skills
• Decluttering and organizing

And anything else I can think of or that YOU tell me you’d like me to address. Yes, I want to hear from YOU. 

Whether you work full-time or part-time, work outside the home or have a home office, children or no children, male or female…if you are responsible for the care of a home you are a homemaker. Our situations may differ and our approaches will as well. However, we all want reasonably clean and comfortable homes, clean clothes to wear and tasty food to eat.
