Good afternoon from this side of the planet
It is 2:40 PM here as I write this post.
From this weekend I am not spending much time online. I just make sure that I stay regular and do a bit so that the pennies keep coming
and I too do not lose the touch. My home was not well attended since March. Our deep cleaning was due in April and I planned to do a thorough one during summer vacation. I do a thorough deep cleaning of the house every three months. My husband feels that I have some sort of OCD with cleanliness and organization.And my friends would say that my regular cleaning is as good as their deep cleaning
House looked perfect but I knew that there are corners that need decluttering and a bit of organization. You know your home better than an outsider who will peep and find everything well organized and beautiful.
Summer vacation started with covid infection ad the whole of the vacation in the month of April and May went in isolation and post covid recovery. This was a waste of summer vacation
And the virus leaves you with some long-term effects. 
I am perfectly fine but still, there are some days when tiredness just visits for no good reason. Anyway, I am regular with my yoga and breathing exercises and they as always are helping me.
I have started with my cleaning from this week and I am going slow and steady. I am giving some hours with break and in last two days, a lot has been done. I organized my work table and two drawers in the art and craft cupboard. And doing that I found few incomplete projects there. I helped my elder daughter to clean her wardrobe, take the giveaway clothes out and sort all that needs a bit of repair. And there are quite a few that needs a bit of needlework. So i should be doing them in the late afternoons, a little each day. If there is a good sun tomorrow, I will go for washing a few of her stuffed toys.
So, a little by little you keep going and a lot gets done.
Now, I am done with enough for today and I can enjoy it here for some time
What's every one up to? Have a good time in your mylot corner

You're right. Doing things little by little gets them all done. The kitchen is done now and I'll start next on the living room. When we get done with something, we tend to leave it in the living room since we are almost never in that room. (We mostly use our bedrooms and the kitchen.)
I hope you have a good day.

@arunima25 I was planning on starting it later this morning. (It's only 6 am here.) We still need to do our daily walk and then eat breakfast first.

I keep a routine for cleaning... daily, weekly and quarterly as deep cleaning.So the house stays in order and nothing gets overwhelming. Because of this virus infection, things went out of track for a while. Good to get back to track slowly
Doing little is good idea.It doesn't leave you exhausted and bored. So when are you planning to start with living room?

@Hanbinandaeyo I am resting enough. Post covid I often feel low on energy.

When it comes to house cleaning I have that which is done every day, once a week, once a fortnight and once a year and it depends which part of the house it is

A big hi five there.
I do it the same way. Love to have a neat well kept house else I feel unproductive and messed up in brain.

@arunima25 That's so true. I am inclined to put stuff we rarely need on top of tall cupboards but then, of course, it never comes down and we forget what's up there.

@JudyEv Yes. I did not know that I had so many things in the loft area of each cupboard. We get to see them once or twice a year.

Even when we have stayed in a house for long, these regular cleaning helps us to make it stay in order. And we keep a track of what all we have there in house. Sometimes we just forget about them and find them as treasures when we are cleaning

@miftha Oh! That's good. Then it's the tiredness that comes with too much of work and stress. Take some break and relax.

I agree that doing a little every day lessons the load. Since it’s just the two of us now, everything is clean and neat. Our cleaning lady laughs when she comes to clean and tells us she gets paid for doing nothing.
It’s great that you are doing breathing exercises and yoga. I hope you continue to recover completely and soon!

Yes, it feels good. I feel that I am more efficient and productive when I work in organized place. I love a clean place. My house is always well kept, passing on the same habit to my daughters.
