With a pandemic still a present factor in all of our lives home is literally the center of your universe right now. And ensuring that it is a source of minimum stress is essential to keeping sane.
Here are some habits you can practice daily to ensure your house is clean and orderly all the time.
1. Wake, and make your bed pronto. That’s one task down already.
2. Keep your kitchen sink empty for a soothingly clear sight line.
3. Clean a room a day. You know what they say about doing daunting tasks in small chunks, right?
4. Hang a squeegee. Take a few satisfying swipes after your shower, and presto!
5. Assign cubbies to each family member. Tidy is as tidy does.
6. Unload the dishwasher when clean. Then you’re always prepped for habit #2.
7. Use it, wipe it. Especially high-touch surfaces.
8. Snap it, shred it. Paper piles are for the birds.
9. Create a doorway box. Next time you leave, donations and recycling leave with you.
