Organize hour household: a tip for new households

If you are moving in with your significant other, you will have to get used to this new situation first which will take some time. As I have lived with my parents before, you have to get the right "flow" in the new household. Try to compromise and get rid of your bad habits.

This tip is for all people who start a new life moving in with a partner for the first time.

Okay, before you cook or bake:
empty the dishwasher and wash all pots. This way you can put all the dishes in the dishwasher right after a meal and nothing will get overloaded. It keeps the counters neat and empty as well.

Take the garbage out regularly and don't let it overflow in the garbage bag.

Put on your favourite music CD in order to keep up having fun.

Only take a pot or place out, when no dirty dishes are around, this way nobody can complain.

Keep your counters clean and neat.

Vacuum 80%, instead of vacuuming rigorously every day which takes a lot of time I do it every second time just a little bit which does not take much time at all. Once a week I will do a more thorough job.

After you wash your hands or take a shower, just clean the sink and wipe the bathroom counter, this way they always look clean, best is to take a micro fibre cloth.

Well, these are just a few tips to keep your place clean and neat without too much work.
