Mid-Year Updates | Home Routines and Planning Systems
Happy July 1st! Today, I'm sharing my mid-year updates for my home routines and planning systems. You have seen a few of these changes if you have been watching all of my videos, but I wanted to have a video that included all of the changes in one place.
This year has been a year of really figuring out what works for me in this season of life. I used to think that cleaning routines were one size fits all. I also used to think that once you found one it would always work no matter what. I have finally realized that there is a good chance that things rhythms and routines need to change as your seasons change. If something isn't working, it's okay to re-evaluate and change things up.

    About the laundry, I learned from a YT channel, 23 fox place I think, where she programs her washing machine in the morning for the load to be ready when she wakes up, so all she does is pur in in the dryer and program next days laundry.

    New to your channel. Basically my Sunday resets consist of me is first changing my warmers, straightening up my bathroom, and kitchen. I don’t always do my laundry each week. These last few weeks of my summer I’m planning on creating a daily routine and schedule of what I want done and need done. I’d like to improve my routines for Saturday mornings. During the school year I don’t work Saturday mornings at the store or either Sundays so my only day off is Sundays. I want to utilize my mornings during the weeks so I’m creating a routine for my Saturday mornings instead of just going lounging around until I get ready to go to work. My body wakes up early but I mentally don’t get woken up until around mid morning. I feel I totally could get more done during those midday hours.

During the month of July I have more time during the mornings/midday because I don go into work until late afternoon. During August through May my days are more structured because I’m at school working. Then during June I have about an hour or two to get things done before going into work since I work in the mornings at school.

    I a combo of both now. I use Flylady's zone cleaning, but I do a 6 week rotation. The first 5cweeks, I'm doing a zone per week. I took your flex zone idea and I love it. Now, I break the zone cleaning g down by tasks, doing a different task eCh day. So, 1 day I de-clutter in that zone. If it doesn't need de-cluttering, Then I'll either do some re-orgsnisinv or I'll de-clutter in an area that's still in messy house boot camp. The next day, I'll deep clean the hidden areas (cabinets, drawers, etc) of that zone. The next day I'll deep clean the visible surfaces. The next day I'll do a detailed mopping, and the next day I'll detail vacuu. Also, I do different weekly cleaning g jobs ea h day, along with the zone ckeaning. The weekly ckeaning tasks are simple tasks. I save the quick non-detailed mopping and vacuuming g of tge main areas for the days when mop and vacuum in my zone, so that I'm not bringing out tge mop and vacuum multiple times throughout the week.

I have a new hack that helps me stay fo used on all my routines, not just housework. About a month or 2 ago (can't remember e actly), I showed my hubby a hilarious video of a comedian explaining what life is like with his ADHD wife, and I think I also showed him a video of someone simulating what goes on in an ADHD brain in a typically routine situation. Aaaaaaannnnndddddd....that's when it dawned on him to come up with a tool to help me stay focused on whatever task or tasks I'm working on. He came up with task bracelets, and...go figure...I discovered that there actually IS such a thing. You can find it on tik tok and yt. There are several people out there using this method, a f they each have their own little spin on it. There's even one out there where the kady is using them to help her focus on building her business. It made so much sense when my hubby suggested it. Ti.ers and alarms help me somewhat, but the one sense that is not stimulated yo help me start or stay focused on a task is touch. The bracelets provide touch I can "ferl" tge reminders on my wrist. It really is helping alot with my morning, afternoon ad evening routines. I-I put all of my bracelets for one set of routines i.em morning routine). Each time I complete a task in that routine, I take the corresponding bracele off and drop in a "DONE" jar. If a task is in progress because it involves multiple smaller tasks that can't be done all at once, I'll move that bracelet to the opposite wrist while I work on another task. And when I finish the "on progress" task, I'll take it off and drop it in the jar. Once my wrists are free of bracelets, that routine is done, and I'm ready to either start on the next set of routines or to have some free time. I'm telling you, it's a game changer!

      @@lovefortruth3414 Wow, I haven’t heard of these bracelets, but what a great idea. I’m so glad you have found something that is helping you. And, yes, it takes tweaking the routines over and over.

      @@CarryGrace they are also called chore charms. Tgere are several different types. You can use coil key chain bracelets, make your own alphabet bracelets, and there are even charm bracelets with "charms" for each task. I'm using key chain chain coils

    I do both! Yes depends on the season of life too! I do seasonal deep cleaning, baseboards, crown molding behind fridge etc. I pick one a season to do this seasonal deep cleaning, things that only need sone once a year. Then I have monthly deep cleaning whenever I get to it. Things that need sone more often deep mopping as opposed to quick mop, deep dusting & polishing as opposed ti dry dusting etc. I only have 3 zones I move through them one zone each season and sometimes take a break during the thanksgiving and Xmas etc Each room gets touched lightly during daily chores every day. Mostly pick up and put away and quick mop & vacuum if needed.

    I preferred staying in one room, helps me stay focused BUT if I'm deep cleaning blinds I better do all that at once or it ain't getting done 😂

    why why whyyyyy I just saw this.... I love this system so much... it resonate so much with me.... This planner for Home management is ideal, at least for me. All of us are different and work different, but I liked this so much. I would prefer an academic planner. This academic year I will be using a work planner and personal planner apart... but needed something more inclined to home management / tracker / journal ... Thank you for the details...

      As a person with ADHD I like a guided list. I get too sidetracked or overwhelmed if there is too much at once. I am not sure which one would work better for me.

    My zones are like yours. I set up with task based thinking too. Get bath supplies out for all baths, zone 3. Living & Family & hall use same supplies, so that is my zone 2. I have 5 zones. 1-4 are every month. 5 is for remaining weeks, about 8-9 months a year.
