But, when we get to 100+, then, I start to whimper! :D <br /><br />Right now, all I am doing are the basics, when it comes to cleaning! Dusting, vacuuming, mopping the kitchen floor, etc. I do some deep cleaning as and when I feel like it, but, for the most part, I am trying to keep things maintained. I like a clean and tidy house, but, housework is not my favorite thing to do! :)Blesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-14551058539247823802019-07-17T02:52:03.003-07:002019-07-17T02:52:03.003-07:00Oh, now I understand!

Traffic is heavy in the cities and on the motorways here too. Sometimes worse than others. I don't have a cleaning routine. Husband does basics like vacuuming and polishing (some) surfaces when I'm at work, but all the non-weekly stuff like washing down paintwork and cleaning out cupboards is my 'pleasure' (I don't think!!!)

It's just ...No, you are not being dim, Eileen. It's just that, I find I am more motivated to clean on Mondays - at least, I get through the living room and dining area, without any problems. But, by Wednesday or Thursday, I am not that motivated to clean. I feel that those areas, scheduled for later in the week might not get the level of cleaning they should get. My daughter thought that, if I rotated the rooms I did on a Monday, I might clean them more thoroughly and feel better about it.<br /><br />Maybe, I should just reverse the order of the rooms, one week, perhaps the last week in the month, and see how that works out for me! That might be better than rotating the rooms and getting confused about which room I am supposed to be cleaning on a particular given day! :)Blesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-86504695803913987032019-07-16T13:37:02.425-07:002019-07-16T13:37:02.425-07:00I'm probably being a bit dim, but I don't ...I'm probably being a bit dim, but I don't see the benefit of rotation to do a different room every Monday and so on. If you are getting the house cleaned regularly with your current schedule, why change? Have I missed something obvious?Eileen Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06340398156618870705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-81973884932911647622019-07-16T10:47:41.433-07:002019-07-16T10:47:41.433-07:00Yes, that's both what she said and what would ...Yes, that's both what she said and what would result from rotating the schedule. This week, I'd do the weekly cleaning according to the schedule I wrote out (dust living room/dining room on Monday; dust family room and my bedroom on Tuesday; vacuum the house and clean the bathrooms on Wednesday; clean the kitchen on Thursday; one deep cleaning task on Friday, etc.). Then, next week, I'd dust the living room and dining room on Tuesday, do the family room and my bedroom on Wednesday, and so forth. After 5 weeks, I'll be back to doing the living room on a Monday. She had a rotating schedule like that when she was in middle school and liked it. It's something to think about - maybe I'll try it out and see how it works out. :)Blesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-59900080864798556522019-07-16T10:15:37.615-07:002019-07-16T10:15:37.615-07:00They are, aren't they?

Or maybe that's what her suggestion would result in anyway.
