It’s week 9 of my quest for organization and so far I have been reading from the Bible, trying to get 8 hours of sleep, dressing for success, exercising and drinking more water, keeping my bathrooms “company ready”, establishing a laundry routine, trying to keep my kitchen clean, and menu planning.
This week I am going to try making my bed each morning. Now, I know this one may seem silly to those of you with the philosophy of “Why make the bed when you are just going to sleep in it again.”
However, when I walk into my bedroom and see that the bed is made it makes me feel better about sleeping in it. It is kind of like when the kitchen is clean you feel more like cooking. Plus, it just looks nice.
This weekend my husband and kids helped me totally clean the master bedroom. We even took everything out of the closet, moved shelves, and made things more “user friendly”.
I felt like the If You Give a Mouse a Cookie
If you make the bed then you will want to dust the furniture. If you dust the furniture you will want to sweep the floor. If you sweep the floor you will want to rearrange the closet. If you rearrange the closet you will be tired and want to take a nap. If you want to take a nap you will be glad you made your bed.

Yes, I think starting with a clean bedroom will make this week’s task much easier.
I will plan to drink six cups of water each day. I’m getting closer to my eight cup goal.
I made a printable checklist for this week. You are welcome to download and print one out for yourself.

Of course I have to ask, do you make your bed?
