      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.
