I haven’t cleaned the house in a few days, and it shows. The dishes are piling up, the carpet is covered in lint, the sheets are itch-inducing. It’s time to get my shit together and reset the house. I need to clean until I am proud of my living space.
I first run a sink of steaming hot water and throw in whatever dishes I can fit, while I let it soak. The water is way too hot to stick my hands into the sink. I’ll let that sit while I start on the vacuuming.
One task at a time and everything is back in its place. It was a long tiring day, but the results were worth it. Every scrub and polish and dust and sweep made everything so much nicer. I like a clean house. Even if it takes all the energy in me.
