I love them. LOVE THEM. But it’s weird that they don’t actually make the work happen, LOL.

But, there are two that I really like, Habitica, which makes it a game, and Tody, which is crazy flexible.

Habitica is great for creating habits, but I think Tody is better for specific household cleaning management. It has a *ton* of preset tasks you can put on your to-do lists and 5 levels of “cleaning attitude” to determine how often you do X task (and you can still edit that on top of it.)

And if you go Premium on Tody, there are extra task options, and you can share it between users, so you can spread the cleaning love. And it’s only $4.99 a *year* – very worth it.

That being said… Oh my god, I am bad at the lists. My problem is that I look at the empty app, add every last damn thing I need to do and suddenly… I have a list with 100 items on it and I get overwhelmed and get nowhere.

So, I am trying AGAIN – but this time, I’m just adding things as I do them. Yesterday, I added the things from the kitchen I did, with a 10 day repeat. Today, so far I’ve just added the powder room sink and mirror as I’ve done them.

So, maybe this time, if I don’t add 100 things in a day – maybe I will not get overwhelmed. We shall see!
