Empowering You to Create Your Oasis.

Clean Monday Mornings began with a simple idea: every week offers a chance to begin again.

My name is RaMonda. I’m a corporate engineer, a mother, and someone who believes that the spaces we build around us shapes the lives we live inside them.

For years I balanced the structure of engineering with a quiet habit of creating—fixing things, redesigning rooms, and building systems at home the same way I build them at work. Clean Monday Mornings grew from that rhythm.

As the philosopher Aristotle wrote:

“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.”

This space became a journal for those habits—home projects, thoughtful design, and the small practices that help bring calm and intention back into everyday life.

Over time, that philosophy expanded beyond writing and into physical form. Those pieces are released through Milking Raindrops, a small collection house connected to this world. Milking Raindrops releases rare pieces for the home, each chosen for the quiet beauty found in ordinary moments.

At its heart, Clean Monday Mornings is about building a life that reflects your values.

Or as Marcus Aurelius once wrote:

“The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.”

Because every Monday offers a chance to begin again.
