Does that sound reasonable to you? I ask because I know when I set goals for myself that aren't in line with what I actually CAN do, I feel worse about myself. Am I making sense? I am not trying to tell you what to do, I am just sharing some of my experiences in cleaning and keeping up my apartment.


For example, I try to clean up a little at a time where it needs it the most. Like, when I go to the bathroom, I do a little there. If I am up to it, when I am in my kitchen, I do a tiny bit there, also. When I go back to those rooms and I see what I have done, I feel a little bit better about myself.
Yes, that makes sense. Every day would be hard for me since I have a basic routine I have to follow each day. I like the idea you have of picking up where I go. I think I will try that on days I clean. I may just set a couple of days a week to work on my place.
