Cleaning.

Okay, why is cleaning so much harder with a child around. I am trying to gut through his room and get rid of things we no longer need and just have a proper deep clean.

In all fairness I find cleaning naturally difficult in some ways so it's already a hard task, and then I am hoovering while I personally struggle with noise sensitivity, my ears are also very sensitive, but then I am hearing impaired, deaf in one hard of hearing in another but that doesn't stop my sound sensitivity so I am really struggling.

I started yesterday but I was so overwhelmed I had to stop, the house looks like a tip, and that's also overwhelming me. I can't win.

    Hey @Animalloverb Cleaning is such a mammoth task that can be so overwhelming, adding a child to that must be so intense, especially when you already find it so difficult and struggle with noise sensitivity when hoovering. How are you doing today @Animalloverb, did you manage to get any more cleaning done at all?

    @Callum

    I did manage to get more cleaning done yesterday, as of today I didn't as I had work. I am hoping I will be able to carry on on my day off, that's if I don't get called in.

    @Animalloverb Good that you managed to get some cleaning done yesterday, but it's okay that you didn't get a chance today. It's always good to take it at your own pace.
