My only real area of consistency:
I keep a tub of Wet Ones in my car and whenever we leave an activity (dance, scouts, choir, playground, etc.) I have my kids wash their hands thoroughly before we buckle up.
I also have individually wrapped wet ones in my purse and whenever we go to a park or anywhere that the kids will have a snack, they use the wipes to thoroughly clean their hands first.
It has kept us all free from illness.

I am excited to post this, because this particular "consistent" thing, rarely gives us praises, nor does it often produce an ease within our home life. In other words, it's just "there".
BUT, today it did!
After 12+ years of marriage, my husband and I have been putting "Owners Manuals" in one draw, in the laundry room. You can imagine, after 12+ years, the massive accumulation of such manuals: refrigerator, TV's, cable boxes, cell-phones, regular phones, blenders, bread machine, juicer, baby crib, baby monitor, pots and pans, washer, dryer, vacuum, hair-blow dryers, computer, calculator, dvd player, baby carriers, doll houses, ...you get the idea.
Yesterday, my digital camera broke. Oy. And I've been searching the ends of the internet for an answer of how to fix the problem ourselves (it is a rather old camera, no longer being made by the manufacturer), but I know the system error code, and I'm working with that. Well, I figured that seeking help within the owners manual might prove beneficial (as I mentioned the camera is at least 6 years old) ~ well, searching down to the very bottom of our drawer, I found the owners manual!
...It didn't help, or have any answers,  , BUT the manual was there!  And made me appreciate the "drawer", and having all those items in one place. Oh, and it reminded me that I have been wanting to start juicing again...when I happened upon the "juicer manual". 
...now to remember where I'm storing the juicer...
