Let’s look on the bright side of this whole quarantine thing shark we? Less running around. Less going to work. Teens home more. Thus we can put them to work helping us clean the house! Nice, shiny kitchen floor thanks to @emily_wiggles. Have also done bathrooms, laundry, sheets, vacuumed the rest of the floors, watered the plants and scrubbed the kitchen counters, cabinets and all the high contact areas with bleach. Not my usual choice of cleaners but doing what is recommended for us to stay healthy. You getting and cleaning and organizing done? Are you putting the kids to work for you? #cleaningthehouse #lifewithteens #saturdaymotivation #quarentinelifein2020 https://www.instagram.com/p/B-knGkUn-6E/?igshid=1b15ogcf86rkl

Sometimes you just have to find the humor in your every day. This may not be ideal for some, but for us we've always #homeschooled What's one thing you struggle with having kids home? #homeschoollife #momlife #lifewithteens #homeschoolers #midwesthomeschoolers #boymom #lifewithboys #homeschool #covid #covid_19 #covid19 #kelliskaotickitchen (at Lake County, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/B94YtSoFdVn/?igshid=37fq2hncok8q

I’m not very good at getting rid of clutter, but it’s gotten easier as my kids have gotten older because I have more time to sort and dump. Like today. My son is home from college and asked for money to get a haircut. I knew I had a coupon. Started looking and was able to devote an hour to going through all the mail to figure out what stuff I needed to keep and then I could recycle the rest! #clutter #workingmoms #cluttercontrol #moretime #lifewithteens #garyveechallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/B6LyKehlYLZ/?igshid=1pwotay3sxne4
