I totally get routines! As a flight attendant, my job functions around multiple types of routines- personal and professional. But all of them are anchored by cues, and for me, that's what makes the difference between making me feel restricted versus empowered.
A mindset shift that has helped me with cleaning is recognizing that it is a cycle not a project. You will never be done cleaning. There is no start and end like a project. It is something that is a constant cycle. The goal of having a clean house doesn’t work because it can only be clean for a moment not permanently!
Embracing a cleaning rhythm as opposed to a cleaning schedule has been very helpful for me. I have one non negotiable which is I go to bed w a clean kitchen almost every night. Otherwise - we do what needs to be done as we see it/have time. I wish I had started that tidying habit at my first child but it definitely helps now. Also, my husband works from home some and is good about doing chores, but he will never be the guy who cleans the floor every Tuesday and the bathroom every Friday etc 😂. It is a far more balanced and therefore manageable load for both of us if we have a rhythm of a reasonable clean and tidy house without a strict schedule. And I have a 10, 8 and 6 year old so reasonable is key.
@lisa-marie custard, I’m a bank branch manager over 20+ years in the industry. My biggest suggestion would to divide your spending into 2 categories “needs” and “wants”. You need to pay your housing but you don’t need Hulu streaming. If you have enough for your needs which to me is survival. Wants is everything else. Really think about what you are spending. Also know what tools work for you. Does cash burn a hole in your pocket? Then maybe not carry cash. I hope that helps.
I forgot to tell you my win, because I was late (that’s my English account). My win was that I can’t go sugar free alone, so I found a possibility to not do that alone. 👍

YES! This is such a great reminder!
One thing is: Set up my July calendar/ schedule and declutter as I put bedroom 1 back together.
