Let's talk about cleaning
We have a cleaning person who comes every other week. On weeks she does not come, I clean.
She is here about 4 hours and cleans three bathrooms, our bedroom, great room, nook, hallways.....all but Julia's bedroom, which is seldom used, and the den, which is a mess. Our perpetual mess.
I started our bedroom at 1:45.......and finished about 4. That includes the bathroom. But seriously....over 2 hours?
I do get interrupted. Dog has to go out, Jackie has to move, I get thirsty, phone rings, mail has to go out...but still. I just don't get it. Why does it take me so long?
Needless to say, the rest of the house was not cleaned. And by cleaned, I mean furniture dusted, floors vacuumed, rug vacuumed. It is not heavy work, or a lot of work. It just takes me forever and it shouldn't.
I admit I have a problem focusing. I can start out doing one thing, and 20 minutes later I have started three other projects and not finished any of them. I then go back to the first, and finish that, then work on finishing the other 3...unless I get distracted.
My methods complicate my life.
Anyway....one part of the house is clean. For now. The rest will eventually get done.
Stay healthy. Stay safe. Wear a mask.
Peace and Love
