deep clean in series, not in parallel
I came to the finish line of my basement cleanout project yesterday. Only took a year - you got this!
I am in year 2 of reorganizing my garage and it's now so bad there is only one small walkway from the door to the house entrance.
I need an adult.
Use a week of PTO, and rent a dumpster. Take literally everything out of the garage, and place any obvious trash in the dumpster. Start methodically moving things back in, taking care to ensure each item has a "spot". Continue sifting through things and throw things away as necessary. Anything small that still works but isn't needed goes into the sell pile, anything large that could be easily fixed or still desirable goes on the curb for free pickup. You got this!
It's a hard mode game. I need some strategy ready for when the battery suddenly says 1% remaining.
My life while dealing with multiple chronic illnesses.
Yeah, I've learned to not try to do such deep cleaning. I clean the floor regularly in hopes that removes 80% of the dust. But everything else, I clean as I see that it's dirty. Well, and without putting it off for too long, otherwise I do need to do a deep clean when someone visits.
I got a robot vacuum/mop so I don't have to worry about most of the floors, now, just need to remember to change out the water. I would have its little robot babies I love it so much.
This was me trimming some trees in my yard. Turns out cutting off some branches is the easy part. Dealing with branches full of leaves took me an additional 3 hours
I'm in this photo and I don't like it.
This reminds me, I know chores are one thing, but similar stuff comes up in creative work and like...How does anyone convince themselves to complete that stuff?
I'll jot down an idea, then start a draft or outline, but then can't be bothered to polish it up and get it to a state to share.
Yeah, it's so much more fun to plan to do something, take the first big steps, and then get bogged down in the tedious part.
Step for step, then you have less to clean per mood.
I have a further question why is the pile of clothes always on my side of the bed and not yours yes I am comfortable on the couch why
See, I'm the opposite. 5 min sesh with live rosin and I'm ready to flip a house.
Thats why my deep cleaning involves a drawer or two and thats it. Break it down and you can do much cleanning
I'm also a fan of that. Breaking it into small areas, rather than everything all at once.
Me for the last 5 weeks
This kind of thing happened to me earlier on while I was drilling a hole in the wall 🤦♂️
Very relatable
