Home maintenance, part of Work

The small jobs, on a schedule.

Set each job to repeat every few months, see what is due next, and keep a log of every time it was done.

Schedules

Every job gets a rhythm.

Give a job an interval, like every 3 months for the air filter or every 6 months for the AC service. Kinnomy shows the next due date and puts it on the calendar.

The log

A record of every time it was done.

Each time a job is done, log the date, the cost and who did it. The next due date moves forward on its own, and the log can record the cost as an expense too. Next time someone asks “when was the AC serviced?”, the answer is one question away.
