I’ve just swept and mopped. Once the floor dries, I could easily go sweep again and turn up more dust and dirt. If I were to mop again, I’m almost certain the water in my bucket would be filthy. It feels like it’s never actually clean.
Beyond that, there’s dusting, cleaning windows, sinks, countertops, bathrooms, and probably things I don’t even consider. How do you all stay on top of these things?
I’ve always considered paying for cleaning a little posh, but with children and both working full time it’s an easy choice. We’d always prioritise other things than cleaning in our free time, so it wouldn’t get done. It is also tax deductable where I live.
