In today’s video I’m taking you through my April monthly reset—equal parts deep cleaning and planning—so I can walk into a new month feeling prepared instead of behind. I start in the kitchen with a few of my “beginning of the month” tasks, like running an Affresh cycle in the dishwasher (hot setting) and tackling a very real-life mess in my toaster oven/air fryer. I also share little tips that make these jobs easier, like letting Dawn sit on the tray so it can do the hard work, and steaming the microwave with a measuring cup of water so everything wipes out quickly. Then I sit down and show you how I set up my month: I fill in our magnetic fridge calendar (my family needs something they can see), check my notebook so nothing falls through the cracks, and get my April pages ready with simple washi tape, highlighters, and a pen. I’m keeping planning productive and not overly complicated—Day Designer for weekly planning, a notebook for lists, and a clipboard for my printables. I also talk about goals and why January is not my best season for starting all the new things. For April, I’m focusing on drinking 60 ounces of water a day and continuing my rhythm of memorizing two Bible verses each month, while spreading my monthly deep-clean tasks throughout the month so it stays realistic.
