I was hoping someone else would mention checklists. It’s the closest I’ve come to “automating” a lot of chores. These are kept in org-mode with habits associated with them, so they’re both reoccurring and have a nice chart to show how frequently they’re being done.
As an example, “kitchen - daily”. My partner and I have determined that I’m totally blind to things, so I have a checklist that looks like:
- clean dishes from dishwasher to cupboard
- inspect counters, clockwise starting at dishwasher
- dirty dishes from sink to dishwasher
- if dirty, wash and oil cast iron pans
There’s a bunch of these, one for each living area, and a daily/weekly one for each. They pop up in my schedule with the rest of my consulting tasks, and since I work from home I can just grab one from the day’s master todo list when I need a break.
