@KaysHealingPath that’s great! Maybe do the sheets so you can relax when you get home instead of worrying about that right way after vacation. Put a hold on your mail maybe?

@Keepitsimple I went to the laundromat in the morning
I’ll change the bedding the night we leave
(My husband will be like wtf? 😆)

Freeze a glass of water then put a penny on top so you'll know if the power shut off while you were away.

@FloorGenAdm ohhh that’s a good tip!!!

@Hoodski we don’t have any clocks in the house lol
@FloorGenAdm a ziploc bag of ice cubes does the same thing and is easier to stash out out of the way.
So this is the perfect opportunity for you to bug bomb the place. You'll be gone for a while so the smell will be gone by the time you get back...
Just make sure you vacuum and clean all the horizontal surfaces well when you return.

Have someone check on your house regularly, and take the mail in. It will appear occupied and deter and possibly deter people breaking in.

@Rickg neighbors already notified we leave this weekend
I always clean as much as I can before I leave. Theres enough extra stuff to do when you get home. Not having to clean the house is a nice perk.

@AcidBurn I agree
I just washed all the dishes and discarded all the food we won’t eat from now till Saturday

Mop? Lol
That’s going a little to far. Unless the floor is that dirty.

I do the same. Except it’s not the smell necessarily I just don’t want to walk into a dirty apartment at 11:00 at night after a 7 hour flight...
Before I leave I always make sure a neighbor knows I won’t be home. I make sure all the windows are closed and locked. Certain lights are left on, others left off. The fridge door is closed gas stove is off (idk why it would be on🤷🏻♂️ I check anyway)
An I have a friend start my car every once in a while. If I’m gone for an extended period of time.
