@organizedchaos4: This video is for my 16 year old follower that will soon be forced to move out on her own. Sweet girl, I’ll be your mom for a few minutes and explain the basics of how to care for a home. When you’re just starting out you don’t need to have a grasp of everything, just a few basics. And you are NOT pathetic for asking, I know people in their 70’s learning from my advice. Heck I was 30 before I started to get things figured out so don’t let your age deter you. 1. You do need a cleaning schedule. Don’t freak out. Just use mine. It’s called the 6/10 list. You’re only going to focus on the top part that’s the Daily 6. (Make your bed, wash dishes, scrub your sink, wipe your counters down, laundry is on my daily 6 but if you’re living alone, chances are you don’t need to do laundry daily maybe like every 2-3 days. Don’t worry about doing laundry perfect. Heck, I don’t sort colors or type of item. I just toss it all in and use a regular laundry detergent pod. Last on the list is vacuum) Now you need to clean your bathroom at least weekly. I have a 5 minute bathroom clean routine on my page so go watch that. 2. Okay for cooking, You do not need to become a gourmet chef overnight. Cooking for yourself is just about mastering 3-5 simple, repeatable meals that use basic ingredients and take almost no effort. Learn how to make one good sheet-pan meal (like roasted chicken, veggies, and potatoes), one basic pasta dish, a simple ground meat or taco night. Rotate those same few meals every week. It eliminates meal-planning stress and keeps your grocery budget completely predictable. 3. Limit what you own so there’s less to maintain. The secret to a low-maintenance home isn't spending hours cleaning—it’s keeping your physical inventory low. 4. And finally use my Basket Method throughout the week. I have a video on my page about that too! Building independence is scary, but you are so much more capable than you realize right now. Take it one simple system at a time. You've got this and I’ll be here every step of the way. ❤️ #homemaking #cleaning #mom #Home #cooking
