Do you guys love to clean? Why? I'm writing an article on all the reasons why we love cleaning and I'm kinda in a dead end already. If you enjoy cleaning (or you don't) please specify why is that.
Yes and only my home. I love a clean home.
I hate to clean, but I like a clean house. My mother-in-law loves to clean. For her it is cathartic. She is a person who obsessively worries, and by focusing on the process of cleaning it allows her to relax.Â
I am male and I have ADHD. On a personal level, I can find anything I have filed for reference almost immediately when necessary.Â
On the other hand, anyone walking into my office at home would find that hard to believe---to say it charitably, I am somewhat "messy."
However, I do clean occasionally, always do my own laundry, and tend to hold myself responsible for loading and unloading the dishwasher for my wife.
[Cleaning the kitchen, however, is a task I leave to my wife---she is gifted (seriously) when it comes to doing that quickly and efficiently and she likes it clean and organized. And of course, sometimes associated with my ADHD or ADD is a higher tolerance (unawareness?) of "messes," so I simply am not a proponent of a spotless house.]
The payoff for me in cleaning is using the physical activity of "cleaning" to center myself.
And at other times, I do it because the cleaning tasks I choose to perform are not too complex and do have a tangible beginning and end, so they give me a real sense of accomplishment for the day.
Well im cleaning my blinds today take them outside and spray some cleaner on them and hose them down. I cant handle laundry building up to huge loads so im on that every other day
I think most rational human beings enjoy more the results of the cleaning process than the process itself. Of course there are always some OCDs lurking around :)
