Cleaning Motivation for the Chronically Ill

[@LindaPassmore]

Omg I needed this!!! Between RA , Sjögren's syndrome, fibromyalgia, dysautonomia or just being sick from adjusting to medication. This is where I’m at at today😢

What were your symptoms of Sjogren's syndrome.

My place is always in a disarray. The ADHD, lupus, SCD, depression/anxiety, single parent. I just feel like I’m existing and not living. I just loved to a new place so I have a chance to start over. The last place I never even unpacked 60% of my things between working and being in constant pain, fatigue, cycles of depression and let’s be real loneliness and boredom. Anyways thanks for this video. I decided I’d do one thing at a time. Because when I try too many things I get sick because over did it. I e decided I’d bring up one box overtime I go to the car and at least one box a day. Of course I’ll do more if I can. But things like making food to stay on budget is hard when your hands don’t work. You’re an inspiration keep it up. I’m glad to be seen!

BRB this gave me all the feels about my own chronic illness and now I need to go have a good cry 🥺

Omg my life. Every day. 😓❤

wow, I want to know what the system behind that whiteboard is; I need it! my trick is to do one-two things a day, every 2 weeks (not every 1 week). like, washing the oven surface every 2 weeks on a given day. washing my bedding every 2 weeks. washing the sinks every 2 weeks. I jot it down in a calender to remember which day is which. disclaimer: I know it's very different when you have kids. very, very different. so, the house is ok, and I avoid excessive contact with detergents (not a good thing for MCAS). there is a thin line between 'sterile' and unhealthy, and the detergent marketing has probably wrongly convinced us that 'sterile' was healthy. oh, the toilet is an exception to the 2 weeks rule.

I am so glad I’m not the only one that leaves holes behind pictures 😂 but giving it ago is so satisfying and even better when you can hide the holes after 👍

[@SweetPetunia897]

We 100% have holes behind pictures from me trying to hang them too!

Routines with adhd is harder too. ❤️So its amazing that you try having those, even if so much is "against your routines" if that makes sense.

[@drzeworyj]

PS I love how you laugh through the voice-over. I flare up ocassionally, but similarly, there is not a day where I'd go without pain, not a second where my illnesses wouldn't be affecting me. when I took a painkiller last time (I rarely do), I wanted to cry because only taking meds makes me realise what I am going through without them.

[@LindaPassmore]

Oh and THANK YOU 🙏🏽

Aimee have you checked out Beddy’s yet? They’re soooo amazing. I got a set recently and now it’s so much easier to make my bed and they’re soooo comfy! Might wanna check it out.

[@Aimee_Esther]

Yes! I have beddys on my kids beds and I used to have one for our master until it ripped. I think for the king bed it wasn't much faster/easier but for kids beds it's game changing!
