Weekend Home Reset
Reset your home for the week ahead. Start Monday in a clean, organized space.
Why Weekend Reset Matters
Starting your week in a clean, organized home reduces stress and sets a positive tone. You don't need to spend all day on this—strategic tasks on Saturday and Sunday morning will get your home ready for the week.
The Reset Checklist
Checklist: Weekend Home Reset
Saturday Game Plan
Focus: Heavy Cleaning
This is when you tackle the bigger jobs: bathroom deep clean, laundry, kitchen deep clean.
Time: 2-3 hours
Break it into 30-45 min chunks with short breaks. More efficient than marathon cleaning.
Make it Enjoyable
Put on music, a podcast, or an audiobook. Makes cleaning less boring and fly by faster.
Sunday Game Plan
Focus: Tidying & Organizing
Put away the laundry from Saturday, organize spaces, quick final touches.
Time: 1-1.5 hours
Do this Sunday morning so you still have afternoon/evening to relax before Monday.
Relax After
Finish by Sunday lunch/afternoon. Spend the rest of the day relaxing and recharging for the week.
The Reality Check
Busy weekend? Do what you can. This is a template, not a requirement. Some weeks you'll do the full reset, some weeks you'll do a lighter version. That's okay.
Key priorities if time is limited: Laundry, kitchen, bathroom, vacuum. These make the biggest impact on how your space feels.
Pro Tips
🧺 Sunday Laundry Rule
Do at least one load Sunday night so it's ready Monday. Fold while watching TV.
🍳 Meal Prep Saturday
While cleaning, prep 2-3 meals for the week. Bonus: less cooking stress Mon-Wed.
👕 Prep Your Week
Sunday evening: lay out Monday's clothes, pack bags, prep for the week ahead.
🧹 Delegate
Living with others? Assign tasks. Saturday reset takes 1 hour with 3 people vs. 3 hours solo.
✨ The Benefit
Imagine Monday morning: clean sheets, tidy spaces, organized home. You walk out the door calm, not stressed. That one reset keeps your week better all the way through. You got this.
