davidsprincess's Journal, 31 December 2021

Having coffee. At 7 I will start cleaning. I give myself timeframes to clean different areas- I never beat the clock. EVER. Sometimes I set an alarm on the google home mini- but again... It takes me far longer than I anticipate. I can never just straighten up and get it done. It is always flipping the couch cushions and wiping them down and making sure there are no crumbs in there- swiffer, sweep, vacuum, toilets and sinks and the shower...But today- the day when I pack up the Christmas and leave out the winter-will take hours. Dreading doing it but looking forward to having accomplished it. Sounds like the gym sometimes except the gym I actually like once I get into it. I will have a fresh space for 2022 and all will be right with the world. BTW- I blame my increase in weight on every single person who keeps saying good job and nice drop. A bunch of jinx-ers. Just ignore the weigh ins. No comments necessary. ;)

House cleaning - ewww. Good for you with the plan. I need to do the same this weekend.

I understand completely! I always end up going overboard when cleaning!

I don't know that I love cleaning as much as I just love it clean, if that makes sense. I got it done and it looks so pretty. Totally different than the Christmas look which I also love. From merry and bright to calm and white. ❤️ did not burn nearly the calories I ate in stuffed pizza but today is new. A new day, a new year. Some people hate resolutions. I love them. I make a whole list and don't stick to it and do it again and again. This time will be different. ❤️🙃

It's been much harder during Covid times. I use the motivation of guests coming over to get me going. With no guests, there's very little motive to get the place presentable.

I will say "nice loss", etc just as an acknowledgement that I see your post. Will try to ignore it or say something else. It's funny, I HATE cleaning the house but want it clean. Years ago, in my old house and before I retired I decided to do 15 minutes of cleaning before going to work and 15 minutes after. Didn't include things like doing the dishes and laundry, they HAD to be done. I remember I started with the kitchen and it took me nearly a week to finish it. But the stove looked brand new, the oven was clean, every drawer and shelf in refrigerator was clean and clear and I even used Liquid Gold to polish the cabinets. By the end of 2 weeks everything was clean and it just took maintaining and I was looking for things to do - got the ladder out to dust the ceiling fans. Wish I could do like you and just clean it all on one day but I don't have the energy or will power.

Erika, that’s totally me. I love having people over because it’s fun and it makes me really clean the house. 🤪

Katsolo - if I have people over it reminds me to call my house cleaner!

Fritzy- keeping it clean and then just maintaining it takes so much less time than dedicating hours to cleaning- but it is SO hard! If it was just me, it would be one thing but the kids and a husband- all it takes is one day of not feeling like straightening and its disastrous. Oh well.

One day, Fritzy, I will, too. Just not yet.
