As the chill of winter gives way to the warmth of spring, it’s time to turn our attention to revitalizing our homes after the long hibernation. April marks the perfect moment to embark on essential maintenance tasks to ensure our living spaces are not only beautiful but also functional. Here are some key tips to kickstart your springtime maintenance routine:
Green Up Your Surroundings: Embrace the spirit of renewal by planting new trees, shrubs, or flowers in your garden. Not only will this add a splash of color to your outdoor space, but it also contributes to the health of the environment. Don’t forget to fertilize your lawn to encourage lush, vibrant growth.
Clear the Path: Before April showers arrive in full force, take the time to remove leaves and debris from your gutters and downspouts. This simple task can prevent water damage to your home’s foundation and roof, saving you from costly repairs down the line.
Mow with Confidence: As the grass begins to grow, ensure your lawnmower is in prime condition. Check the blades, oil, and fuel levels to guarantee smooth and efficient operation. A well-maintained lawnmower not only delivers better results but also extends its lifespan.
Softening Water, Softening Worries: Give your water softener some TLC by checking the salt levels and adding more if needed. Soft water not only improves the quality of your water for everyday use but also helps prolong the life of your appliances and plumbing fixtures.
Illuminate Your Windows: Don’t overlook the importance of clean and debris-free window wells. Take the time to clear out any buildup, allowing natural light to flood into your basement while keeping pests and moisture at bay.
By tackling these essential home maintenance tasks in April, you can ensure your abode is ready to embrace the joys of spring to the fullest. Remember, a little effort now can go a long way in preserving the beauty and functionality of your home for years to come. So, roll up your sleeves, grab your gardening gloves, and let’s make this April a month of renewal and rejuvenation for our beloved living spaces. Happy spring cleaning!

There are tons of checklists and moving company reviews to help you prepare for a move, but once the furniture and boxes make it into your new home, the moving help is done for the day, and everyone is exhausted, it can all feel a little overwhelming. We’ve prepared a short guide to help de-stress unpacking and get you settled into your new home.
1. Build breaks into your plan. Make your dinner ahead or plan to order takeout. Expect to need a trip to the store on moving day, the day after moving day, and a week after moving day. Despite the best planning, things come up. 2. First things first – if you’ll be living there from day one, the first order of business is to set up the beds and get one bathroom set up that everyone can use. 3. Plan before you start unpacking. You’ll want to plan how you’ll unpack, which rooms to tackle first, how to organize the drawers, and the end date when the last box will be unpacked. Include shopping for window treatments, rugs, and organizers when looking over your timeline. And don’t over-schedule yourself, enjoy the process of settling into your new home. 4. Within the first week, make your emergency plan, map out your fire escapes, locate or purchase fire extinguishers and blankets, and check your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Get your first aid kits and flashlights in place and stock the basement or shelter with bottled water, snacks, batteries, and a weather radio. 5. Within the first two weeks take a good look around inside and outside your new home. Note anything broken or worn, potential dangers, leaks or drainage issues, electrical concerns, and any sharp, pointing things. Note the HVAC service schedule, the age of the water heater, and any other home mechanicals. Start making your maintenance plan. 6. Now that you’ve moved into your new home, explore your new neighborhood. Locate nearby grocery, hardware, pharmacy, fuel, parks and trails, banks, hospitals, and walk-in clinics. 7. Wrap up the details. Change the locks, get spare keys made, check that you’re set up with all the utilities and service providers you need, send thank you notes to friends and family who helped you out, and help your kids memorize your new address. 8. Host a housewarming party! Moving into a new home is a big life event and you’ll want to celebrate!

The theme for Earth Day 2024 is “Planet vs. Plastics:” There are several benefits to reducing plastics in our world – from production concerns to waste and recycling problems, from air pollution to ocean pollution, and economic disparity issues to workplace safety, there’s room for improvement. The organization EarthDay.org is aiming for a 60% reduction in the production of plastics by 2040.
Although this international environmental initiative aims at global production, technological advancements, and buy-in from governments across the world, we can each help reduce plastic waste in our own circles. Here are a couple of easy ideas to join the movement:
Reduce plastic bag use: Those plastic bags from the store pile up quickly, so take reusable bags with you to avoid using plastic store bags. At home, you can reuse the plastic bags you have or recycle them. And when shopping for trash bags, look for biodegradable options.
Use and wash a water bottle: We’re using plastic beverage bottles at a rate of more than 300 per person per year, and most of them won’t be recycled in the end. A single reusable water bottle can last for years or even decades, depending on your choice. Plus, if you live somewhere with running water, it’s cheap, convenient, and easy to fill your bottle from the tap. If you purchase drinking water from the store, purchase in larger jugs, and look for opportunities to reuse those jugs.
Mind your outfit: Fast fashion is a big topic, but there are some little things we can do to help move the needle. In addition to buying fewer, higher-quality items and natural fibers like cotton, linen, or hemp, many brands are now offering 100% recycled fabrics (polyester, viscose (rayon), etc.) You can also choose secondhand clothing, it’s a great way to find unique, interesting items for your closet and give old clothes new life.
Look around your home, what opportunities do you see to reduce single-use plastics? Can you think of ways to reuse the plastics you’d normally send to the recycling bin? Are there any options to purchase items in non-plastic packaging or from a more environmentally-minded brand? Little changes add up and we can all do our part.
