YES, and this year it will be major. I am furloughed from work and will have all the time to do it. There is no excuse not for this year to be major.

Yes, mostly drapes, cleaning kitchen cupboards, pulling appliances out, etc. Other than that, I keep up our home regularly. The way our German clean-freak Mama raised us.

I do it outside and my wife does the inside.

I feel happy when the sun comes out so I feel happy to clean.

I start in the winter when I can't go outside.

I don't consciously call it that, but when the weather turns nice you can finally get things done. We always did spring cleaning when I was a kid.

I live in a tiny home and keep up with my cleaning all year. I do have help with the heavy lifting once a month. As everyone is at home, I will just do what I can until my cleaners are able to help me

I try to keep up with it all year long. I haven't got the energy for "huge" amounts of cleaning all at once.

one should always be "au courant" with a clean home.

I use to, faithfully but living alone, I just keep up with what needs to be done all year. Grateful I don't have to make it a federal project like I did in the past.

Maybe just a dozen or so if you add them all up and include snow boots and water shoes along with the rest.
