Is My New Chore List Working

Short anser, yes, it is.

It’s all fine and dandy to say “here’s a cleaning schedule” or “here’s how I plan to tackle”. I did post the intention in October, and now I am backing it up with how it’s actually been going.

Here’s a link to the original post to be able to see the full explanation of the chores list.

I use the following to make sure things are getting done every day/week. Having a list of monthly chores helps me make sure the less-frequently needed tasks get done.
I treat these like checklists and move things around if I need to.

I am doing chores more regularly.
I used to be so overwhelmed by what needed to be done; now that I’ve done so much I’m less overwhelmed, and having a list helps me narrow done tasks and not be so intimidated. Having a routine has also helped immensely; I’m a creature of habit and I’m much more motivated now that it’s cyclical rather than randomly trying to make time for and do tasks.

I recommend this, tailored to your house, because it’s definitely been working for me.

Have a question? Want a link to any of these spreadsheets? Have a recommendation to further improve this process? How do you keep your home clean?
