Every day I do dishes and laundry. If I didn’t, dirty dishes and clothes would pile up all over the place, and we’d have nothing to eat off of and nothing to wear. But, as anyone who has to maintain a living space knows, that’s the bare minimum for household chores. So I try to make myself do at least one extra cleaning chore per day.
Today I dusted the bedroom. It doesn’t sound like much, but though we keep the room sparsely decorated, dusting still requires me to pick up, dust off, and dust under about a billion things, half of which are breakable and/or could damage the furniture if I weren’t careful enough. So I was careful, and now it’s done, and tomorrow I get to vacuum, because chores never end.
