Mrs. Gilbreth says, ~Creative home. management is making the best use of what you have to -get what you want.~ Decide first what you ~want, individually and as a family. Establish your goals, short term and long term. Talk it over with the family. Then use what you have~time, energy, money~ and ppace~to; reach your goals. To make the best use of your time, make a list of the things you want to accomplish. Divide the jobs. into ~gotta,~ ~outhita;~ and ~hope to~ lists.; Have a positive attitute about interruptions... They add spark. and variety to our lives. Wouldn~t life. be. dull if we could plan every minute of the day, and not have any interruptions! Accept the happy fact that the job 6f homemaking is never really fi done. To conserve your energy, ask yourself, ~Is this job necessary?~ Do you dry thé dishes with a cloth; or do you let them air dty, the more sanitary way? Do you iron the sheets, towels and socks, or do you consider this a waste of time? Are your home making standards too high; are they high enough? Most husbands needs a cheerful, well groomed wife than they need a perfectly kept house. A clever homemaker knows the dif feyence between the time when. u d-dust the: living room she~ should ~* she merely pull the shades. ~How Does A Young~ Wife Manage~ is the name of a Michigan St. University~ booklet designed fo help homemakers develop positive attitutes toward homemaking.
