Try these simple ideas now, so you can relax and enjoy the summer ahead!
Start outdoors.
Walk around your home and look for areas that need painting, staining or repairs – such as wooden decks and fences. Tune up your garden equipment and finish yard clean up. Prepare garden beds for hot weather with a fresh layer of compost. Remember to program your sprinkler system. Schedule your annual window cleaning and pressure washing before the summer parties begin. Do you need to update the patio/deck décor or furniture?
Go inside.
Service your air conditioner and change the ceiling fan direction so it pushes the air down. Establish a house rule that shoes are removed at the door so dirt, sand, and grass aren’t tracked through the house. Create a bucket list of fun things you’d like to do this summer.

It’s time for FUN!
Take some extra time to organize your calendar. Book those summer parties, register for kid’s camps, plan family activities, and even schedule some downtime. Organize summer supplies and stock up on sunscreen, bug spray, beach towels and kid’s clothing. (Do the swimsuits fit?) Toss or donate anything your kids have outgrown or won’t use. Pack a “Grab
n’ Go Bag” to make last minute summer outings a breeze. Finalize vacation plans and hire a Home Watch Manager to check on your home while you’re gone.
