        Every week you gotta:

        • dust all rooms
        • vacuum all rooms
        • mop rooms without carpet
        • cook multiple times depending on how you get organized
        • clean kitchen after each cooking session
        • do the dishes
        • laundry multiple times
        • grocery shop
        • iron clothes
        • clean the bathroom
        • take out the trash multiple times

        Every few weeks you gotta:

        • wash curtains
        • clean the stove
        • clean up that closet or drawer that’s full of stuff you don’t know where to put
        • whatever else I can’t think of right now

        Every few months you gotta:

        • defrost the freezer & clean the fridge
        • deep clean some areas
        • some other things probably

        Add a regular 8h job on top, add commitments (visit for someone’s birthday, go out with friends etc), add some hobbies (gaming? Rock climbing? Whatever floats your boat, it still takes time)…

        I would burn out faster doing all this shit than postponing my cleaning until someone visits. I try to weave in some chores between the essential stuff, but it always adds up and I need to spend a weekend catching up.
