Clean as you go- having a {fake} immaculate house (part 6)

Yes, another obvious way to keep your house clean and organized is simply to clean as you go.  

When you pull out all your ingredients to cook, put them away once the casserole is in the oven.  Wash the dishes while you wait for it to finish.  

When you start a project, put away something once it's use.  Maybe you're in the middle of bathing a kid {or two} in the bath tub.  Take that time, while they are playing in the tub to wipe down things in the bathroom and organize little areas {5-10 max}.  

The idea is that you don't waste time standing around waiting for something, but that you pick up as you go.  You pick up when you're done with something.  This is exactly what I told you about last week.  Teach yourself and your children to clean up as you go - or put away something when you're done with it!
