August slipped away into a moment in time…and it’s already September!
Have you ever noticed how the last couple of months of the year end with BER? And they’re some of the *best* months!
September – Fall starts, pumpkin takes over everything, football commences, sweaters come out, chili gets made, there’s so much to love about September.
Then we have OctoBER (Halloween, Fall movies, more pumpkins), NovemBER (Thanksgiving, hunting season, Black Friday, holiday shopping), and finally DecemBER (Ho Ho HOLIDAYS)!
ANYWAYS – Back to my reason for today’s post, your first BER month homeowner checklist. Time for a fall refresh!
🍃 Clean the gutters
🌳 Give Summer lawn tools a good tune up
🛢 Change the oil in the lawnmower
🔧 Service your HVAC system (there isn’t a good emoji for this, sorry)!
👩🚒 Inspect fire extinguisher
🧹 Sweep the garage and wipe dirt from garage door tracks
🏠 Inspect the chimney for loose flashing or missing mortar
⛏ Split firewood to a size that will fit in your fireplace
🐞 Stack wood away from the house to prevent bugs
💦 Make sure windows are sealed tight
🌻 Plant mums or sunflowers in pots by the front porch
🍁 Stock up on your favorite fall candle scents
✏️ Set up a homework station
And remember, if you want the entire year’s worth of homeowner checklists, I’ve got you covered! DM me the word Homeowner and I’ll send you a copy you can hang on your fridge!
