😅Which are the 5 non negotiable tasks we need to do daily?😅
Before we start any type of decluttering we need to make sure we are on top the 5 non-negotiable daily tasks that will make our house function properly and more importantly will make us function.
These are the 5 tasks you need to do daily even if you want it or not:
1🟩Put a load of laundry
Here you have 2 choices:
👉Early in the morning as I do, before I drop the kids to school/nursery
👉Or at night times - if you work nights, or if you want to save on electricity put your washing/dryer at night (some electrical companies have cheaper rates at night times, or weekend - I am with Scottish Power - check your supplier).
👉Put the dryer when the washing is finished so you don't end up with clothes fresh and washed but forgotten in the washing machine. Normally I do this after my washing machine is finished, before I go to school. When I come back from school the clothes are already dried - 🤩Better forget the clothes in the dryer and press the button😏that way they will be dried before you know it.
👉Check the manual for your dryer and choose the highest settings for drying for the least amount of time. Mine is put on Jeans and in 80 minutes my clothes are dried.
2🟩Dishwasher
👉Unload the dishwasher as early in the morning as you can, so you can have your dishwasher empty;
👉Add your plates, cups and other things you need to wash directly into your dishwasher and you save time, when it is full you just press a button. And you also save on having to see your sink full of dishes to wash at the end of the day, when you are already tired from work.
3🟩Floors
👉Sweep your floors daily using a broom or a hoover, depending on the mess, if you do this daily or when the messes happen it will be less mess to clean at the end of the day
4🟩Bins
👉Empty your bins daily, as you don't want nasty smells and the rubbish to stay in your house more than it need too.
5🟩 Food
🤩😍Food is your fuel, don't forget this!😍🤩
👉Make a meal plan or at least have an idea what you are going to eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner. 👉Look in your cupboards and your fridge and use what is close to date, otherwise they will go in the bin and you don't want this.
😏If you find it hard to keep on top of these, keep going, if you do it often they will become and habit.
🤩As a bonus point, they don't take to long of your time, 1,2,3,4 don't take more than 5 minute.
☹️Maybe the meal plan might take longer, but is better to do it now and think about what you want to eat, what you can cook with what you already have, then go order something, spend money and then the food from your fridge and cupboard will go to waste. You don't want and you don't need that.
🤩Plan smart and you will be happy !🤩
