You’ve all inspired me to start hoovering more often I’m ashamed
I get put off because puppy fudge attacks the hoover so I have to lock her in different rooms or chuck her outside while I go around doing it and it’s a whole thing I just can’t be bothered

I hoover twice a day cos I shed hair like a border collie or summit and mini melon gets bloody crumbs everywhere

Yeah my puppy makes loads of mess so that's why I hoover twice! Plus it bugs me if I can see something on the floor that shouldn't be there so I have to get the hoover out 😂

i don't really have a schedule as i don't really have exact working hours and rarely have a full weekend off but then sometimes in the middle of the week i have a day with less work so i try and adapt to all that 🤷‍♀️ i'd love more structure/routine in my life so hoping for that when i quit in a few months.

generally i will tidy every day, mostly in the morning and evening, and i clean the floors in some way every day, as in either mop, sweep or hoover (from my post this morning i think we all know it'll mostly be hoovering from now on 😂), swipe the kitchen surfaces and make sure the sinks are clean.

on the weekends we'll typically do a big clean together in the early afternoon/evening if we're both off work and then we change all the blankets / pillowcases / beds / etc. we also work on the balcony garden then, tidy up the plants if there's dried parts, clean the outside floor and furniture, etc. we'll also do a full clean of the bathroom then, do at least 1 washload of clothes on the weekend, wipe the glass surfaces like windows and mirrors.

i wash clothes as i need to really, probably 3-4 washloads a week maybe a bit more now in summer when we sweat more and clothes dry quicker. we'll also dust on the weekends, completely wash the cat's toilet (which is we clean every day and we also wash her food/water bowls every day), and anything else that needs to be done, i'm sure i forgot something. i try to keep on top of things especially because we have a cat but ideally i'd like to clean and tidy more! i really enjoy it and relaxes me but i don't have enough time :( the only thing i hate is ironing and i never, ever do it, only my bf does that 😂

I do a tidy up, clean sinks and toilets, mini vacuum every day and a big clean on a Tuesday which includes beds and polish.

Im the middle ager that decided not to annoy anyone anymore and retired. Now I have loads of time to come on here instead 😊

I quite enjoy cleaning so even though I don't have a lot of free time to do it with a full time job and doing a degree, I don't mind making time for it. I just put music on loud and feel like it gives me time to clear my head 😂

I do at least one clothes wash a day which for only 2 adults being in a house I think is absolutely extortionate but my basket always seems to be full?!

Being in a house that has a dog we have to hoover and mop at least twice a day. Morning before work and then evening. Still doesn’t get rid of his hair… he moults so badly it drives me insane. I’ll be sitting there watching tv and suddenly I’ll notice a bit of his hair or dental stick or slobber on the floor and it will set me off twitching 😂

I’m considering getting a cleaner once a week cos I struggle with keeping on top of it all with working (although I might just retire 😉) and parenting.

I haven't hung my washing out today just shoved it on the heated airer (life saver). How much cleaning do you all do in a week? I do a big clean where I hoover, mop, clean bathroom, polish etc once a week. Then I do a wiz round Wednesday which is quick clean of sinks, Toilet(even though I bleach toilet everyday), worktops and dust and a freshen up Friday which is hoover if needed clean worktops, polish, clean bathroom.
I hoover once a day, and mop with the flash power mop once a day. I clean my bathroom twice a week and clean surfaces every evening when I mop and hoover. I have dogs and a big garden 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

Hoover every day. The dog doesn’t lose hair but seems to bring in loads of mess from the garden and the park 😤
General cleaning and tidying of the kitchen
Clean the bathroom every few days
Change the beds every week

wish I had a tumble dryer because the clothes airer gets in the way and looks untidy 😤

I feel bad about the middle aged chat now 🤣 I’m not even really young, im in my 30’s haha!

We have a cleaner who comes once every 2 weeks to do a thorough clean and then I just keep on top of it throughout the week then. I usually save a cleaning day for a Saturday or Sunday.

I’ve got such a headache! Im blaming the weather. Although my boyf would say I’m not drinking enough water.
