Day 17

Starting this Monday, and every Monday thereafter (or whatever day works best for your schedule), add 3H or Half-assed Housekeeping Hour to your plan. Spend an hour (less if possible!) once a week running around your house like a mad idiot doing a fast and lousy job of vacuuming spots people see, dusting obvious areas, quickly cleaning your company bathrooms, and speed-swiping your kitchen countertops. Be aerobic about it and you may sweat off a pound or two.
Your house will actually appear to be clean, even though you and I will know this is a ruse. No one’s going to look behind your couch. Promise. Add this task to your BOP.
Morning routine:
Obey your BOP.
Polish your place.
Take five (an 8 minute break every half hour).
Shovel your shitspot.

Add 3H (Half-assed housekeeping hour) to Mondays.
Evening routine:
Polish your place.
