Prysm Note for family logistics
Family logistics is a coordination problem with a lot of moving parts and no project manager. The goal is not a perfect system, it is that everyone can see the same week without asking.
What matters here
- A shared household list
- Recurring chores with owners
- Appointments with reminders
- A note for each child or person
- A Sunday check of the week ahead
The shared list
One list the household can see, with the next two weeks of appointments and commitments. Anything that only one person knows is a single point of failure.
Chores that repeat
Recurring tasks with an owner remove the weekly negotiation. The point is not fairness charts, it is not having the same conversation every Saturday.
The weekly check
Ten minutes on Sunday to look at the week, spot collisions and move what cannot fit. Most family stress comes from two things happening at the same time.
