I sweep and vacuum first. Then I dust. Then mop.
While the floor dries I clean the bathroom.

I do my cleaning in pretty much the exact opposite order.

I dust and clean the bathroom first. Then I sweep. I mop last because I feel like if I clean/dust after then I'm just scattering dust and splashing water from the sink/shower on the freshly cleaned floor.

I vacuum before dusting because I feel that while the vacuum sucks up dirt off the floor, it also makes dust on the furniture. Then I dust. THEN mop, cuz I figure it picks up any dust that might come off the furniture (though I use a rag and it's not like I push the dust to the floor). I consider the bathroom floor it's own thing, I clean it on hands and knees with a towel (not big bathrooms) after I've done the tub, toilet and sink.

But do you do it in heels?

I clean house twice a week, and I work from room to room. I try to keep the clutter down as much as possible, and wipe things down between cleanings.

Wow boy am I shit at this!!!

I decided to take the advice of cleaning one room at a time.

I hung up and put away all the newly clean clothes and then decided to strip the bed and put on a load of washing.

So while I'm in the garage putting on the load I noticed the shoerack I started staining a few weeks ago....half-stained.

So I stained the rest of it...then saw the pile of books in the garage that I meant to put away last week. I brought them up to the study and put them on the desk, noticed the cd's that I'd ripped yesterday, put them down in the living room, saw the plants outside needed watering...watered them, picked up some other random crap and brought it back to the study...sat down and started posting.

Completely forgetting about the rest of the bedroom

I think my least favorite thing is cleaning the bathtub/shower. I'd give anything to get rid of my shower doors, they make it really annoying

That's exACTly how it works for me. I start something and then something else and then something else and then something else and nothing really ever gets finished.

I am scary anal when it comes to my house and car.
I clean my house everyday. Vacuum, sweep and mop the floors, 2 bathrooms everyday, kitchen is a never ending cleaning process all day long. Do not even think of putting a dirty dish in my sink...
I also wash my car every Friday.

scary but clean but oh boy sooooo scary

Do either of you have ADHD or ADD? I am absolutely not kidding here. One of the signs that I may have ADD is that I can not keep a home clean for the life of me because I am so easily distracted. I either have a neat house of a filthy piggy one. My biggest nightmare is a kitchen table covered with things that each belong in a different room and a different place. If only you knew how TRULY nightmarish this subject is for me you'd freak out.

stop it this is true.

wanna form a support group and cry around plastic glasses of raspberry cordial?
