Ive got all my household essentials on a carefully timed subscription. They are all eco friendly ethical options, and I tested loads to get the best of each. My loorolls come once every 12 weeks in a huge box from whogivesacrap. No more running out of loo roll. My laundry detergent / conditioner comes on subscription from Tallow and Ash, and now smells gorgeous. Dishwasher tablets and liquid are from smol. Etc etc, even down to a regular peanut butter subscription, sanitary towels/tampons, shampoo. I bulk buy so I get better quality, cheaper, and much less plastic. Everything now runs like clockwork, and all those last minute panics and missions at 11pm at night have gone. I keep a stock of batteries, light bulbs, sellotape, pens etc.
I do my washing in one bulk day, alongside other chores. I then spend the time in between loads listening to podcasts and batch cooking. I clean up as I cook, so no big mess at the end.
I have managed to sort out my finances after years of chaos. All my bills are paid automatically by direct debit, and if I get a bill or fine, I pay it immediately so it's not pending. Tbat applies to any task really - I either sort it immediately or if I cant, I add it to my very short to do list.
I keep a 'secret' reserve bank account of rainy day money, which I dip into occasionally.
All this has allowed me time to pursue my interests, and I took on an allotment. I absolutely love gardening, and it's honestly my little piece of heaven. I've grown cut flowers this year, next year I'm growing for natural skincare recipes and plant dyes.
I have AuDHD, with low or no support needs. This technically means I'm likely to have low executive function. I can be very "absent minded" and my perception of time is way off. I previously spent most of my adult life oscillating between frantic overachievement and burnout, so all these things have helped stabilise and organise my home life so much. I feel like I might have finally cracked it.
I even manage to wash my bedding reasonably frequently, although tbh I don't much notice the difference either way.....
