I have little arrows in my booklet of lists, pointing to the next page where the item goes on again. I try not to send my cleaning chores over too many pages!

I can't imagine vacuuming every day, but, I suppose, it is essential if one has a dog. Probably needed if one has a cat, too, as cats drop fur, too, but it's not quite as noticeable!

I think, the next time this happens (yes, I know it will happen again!), I will just carry on with that particular day's cleaning and not worry too much about catching up, unless it is something that really needs to be done. The house is looking a lot better than it did before I started on this schedule and I am trying to keep it maintained, but, it's OK if I skip a day or two, now and again.

I don't have a set day for dusting or cleaning the bathroom. I just do something each day. I sweep the kitchen floor daily, too. Having a small place makes it easier.TheAwakenedSoulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11636961399581011120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-331793735154545062019-04-19T03:58:17.838-07:002019-04-19T03:58:17.838-07:00You've done well to catch up but don't be ...You've done well to catch up but don't be too hard on yourself. My cleaning attempts always fall by the wayside and when that happens, I just miss a day or two or three and carry on. My schedule, such as it is' in on a six week cycle so the in-depth cleaning only has to wait that long if I don't do it for any reason. Obviously things are much easier now that I have a cleaner coming in once a fortnight to vacuum, wash floors and clean bathrooms, which is more than enough to keep the house looking clean and tidy.Eileen Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06340398156618870705noreply@blogger.com
