Chore Chart
I'm not the most organized person in the world especially when it comes to cleaning the house. Typically I go in alternating spurts of having a clean house then a messy house. I'm trying to be better and here's one way I'm improving:
This is my chore chart. I already had the board, I just needed to organize my thoughts and realize that if I just do one chore every day (besides the chores I need to do every day like make beds, do dishes, etc.) then I don't have to do them all in one day as was usually the case.
I then also added the monthly chores taking into account the difficulty of each. I figured that the first Saturday of the month my husband and I could do the first two things on the list, second Saturday would be the next two and so on, so I put one easier one and one harder one for each Saturday so we wouldn't have two harder things in one day.
I also realized that there are things that should be kept up on but didn't need to be done very often. That's when I added quarterly and semiannually to my list. I made sure to leave a place to write the date so I'd remember when I needed to do that chore again.
Once my thoughts were organized I made the lists in Paint on the computer and had them laminated so I could reuse them.
I also just added this handy pocket for the dry erase marker and a paper towel eraser.
