A cleaning rotation that survives busy weeks
Assign one or two recurring tasks to each person for a month, then rotate. Keep the list short and the standard realistic. A missed week should trigger a swap, a catch-up date, or a shared decision—not silence.
Use reminders and a shared calendar for the hard deadlines. Build a small fund for occasional professional cleaning only if everyone agrees.
A durable rotation assumes people get busy. It makes the recovery simple.
