Hyper Homemaker List Redux

Here are my personalized edits to the Hyper Homemaker list. One of the reasons I like this list is that it reminds me of the good old days when I worked for someone else and thus had accountability to someone else. For the short time I ran a video store in grad school, I used daily lists to account for the tasks that needed to be done and when. So I'm hoping that I can initiate a similar system in the home.

I've taken into account that we have a maintenance free lawn, although this spring I will hopefully add in gardening! And my laundry conundrum.
