Yesterday I laid out a basic plan for tackling daily and weekly chores. Just enough to keep the house in decent shape. Nothing too fancy. Just the basics. Today I want to do the same, but this time for keeping my body in decent shape. I look back at this post from a little over …
I mentioned in yesterdays post that I was going to focus on getting back to basics this week. Today, I’m going to tackle a very basic routine, cleaning the house. For some people, this comes easily.
