I do have ADHD, I understand your struggle. The best advice I ever heard was “don’t put it down, put it away”. I probably say that to myself a million times a day if I’m feeling motivated, other days, nothing gets done.

[@feraltradwife]

Right? On good days I’m so good at cleaning. On bad days nothing happens. It’s crazy how there isn’t much middle ground

[@annafalciglia5165]

Zucchinis, mushrooms as eggplants have a lot of moisture in them. Cut them up place on a paper towel sprinkle a little salt and watch the water pearl, then just pat dry. They don't need a lot of cooking time, just a little oil is fine (high heat). Another option try baking them either way works. Take it one day at a time, one thing or room at a time. Keep inspiring us to go on. Great Job.🥰

I can't imagine cleaning one single room at a time... I move room to room and as long as I finish a task in one room and don't leave it messier than I started, than it is just fine to move on and do something else. Moving forward is success! Although I don't get fully washing your dishes before the dishwasher, I see dishes being done in a way that makes you happy is way better than not doing dishes at all. Keep going!

You already know how much I LOVE your content! Girl please please please!!..... from my appliance technician husband of about 30 years... please don't stop washing the dishes first before dishwasher!

Here’s what an ADHD diagnosis did for me…. It gave me a direction to research, to find solutions that had helped others. It helped me to understand why I couldn’t seen to do what everyone else did automatically. Meds didn’t work especially well for me, but like you, I was hesitant to take. I probably didn’t give them a fair chance. Mostly it helped with the damage and shame a lifetime of being called ‘dirty’. And gave me tools to help be a bit better.

[@MaritaCovarrubias01]

You should really challenge yourself to just lightly rinse/wipe your dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. Having the dishes done really sets the tone for the rest of the house. When you put off doing the dishes because you need to wash them first, it tends to spiral. I’m speaking from experience. I struggle with perfectionism myself.

[@prayerseabelo9073]

Yes. Perfection paralysis is a thing. I struggle with it too. 😥😥. Another thing that works for me too is sweeping the floor first. Seeing it slightly clean helps me envision what next to clean.

[@nancyworsley5057]

Don't take meds for ADHD. To many side effects of just not feeling great. As far as cleaning...it all comes together in the end. I work from one room to the next. But a wave of misplaced items just flows from one room to the next. It all comes together in the end. So as adults I think we can have a certain amount of control over the ADHD. I learn stuff, like clean the front room always first. It's where people come into our home. It's also where my husband and I relax in the evening. So that's become a habit, and I don't have to continually think about it or redirect myself. Love ya! Your ADHD friend from Wyoming.

Do your feet hurt after doing all this work? I figured out that when I went to another house to clean that I needed to wear my sneakers. Their hardwood floors were different than mine and my feet were killllllllinnnnnnggggg me after 6 hours walking around on that floor. No cush. No padding. I don't know what else it could be...?

[@feraltradwife]

I used to but I started upping my vitamin D and iron and am not as achy after a super long clean

[@pamelamcdaniel4647]

You can put squash, zucchini and eggplant in a colander, then sprinkle with quite a bit of salt on it and let sit for an hour or two. Rinse and dry. It keeps it from being soggy when cooking.

[@feraltradwife]

Watching how many times you have to pick up your Dawn and squeeze a shot onto a dish/whatever made me think you need a hook up to a bottle so you just pull a trigger on your extendable faucet to put a squirt of soap in while you are running the faucet.

I have your same ❤ dishwashing trait. My dishes are 99% clean when they go into the dishwasher. I hate drying through. So after they get washed a second time then the dishwasher magically transforms into a hidden trying rack. I love this for myself. Another plus- when I go to clean my dishwashers’ filter once or twice a year… I assume it’s a lot less gross than it otherwise would be. Right? No food there, at least

I do a 5 min pickup before I do things like cook, watch tv, go to bed or go out. It makes it much better when you finally get around to more deep cleaning. The 5 min pickup should never go longer than 5 minutes and I read about it years ago when my kids were little. They wanted to help and we made it fun for them.

[@acordle2007]

You’re amazing & you work super hard! One suggestion to help overcome the paralysis that comes after a huge day of cleaning (I did this to myself all the time, too but the way!) is to assign a different room to each day of the week. I’m working on this tactic myself. For me I split it up like this: Monday- living room spaces Tuesday-laundry Wednesday- kitchen Thursday- bedrooms Friday-bathrooms Saturday- porches & car It may help! ❤😊

[@feraltradwife]

Yes!!! I want to try something like that but I feel like I only deserve to have a plan after everything is perfect, which is exactly when I’m burnt out and in no place to try anything. I think I can do something like this now that I’ve discovered I can give myself permission to stop! Thank you!!

Hi! Think of it like this (the prewashing). I used to work for an electric company, it's a waste of time and water. Dishwasher is not just a sanitizer, lol.

[@rali6511]

Sometimes I feel overwhelmed by the housework also. So I set myself a goal to clean the entire kitchen, for instance, and set myself a reward - watching a video in KZbin or playing my favourite game on the phone. Sometimes my goal is just to beat the clock and finish before the time set. I think that you should accept the cleaning as a neverending game we are playing. Whan I was bored from the cleaning and was negative, as you told, my brain was aware what I have to do but my body was denying to do it. Also I try to mantain the house not to clean constantly and try to clean as I go and never leave the room empty handed. Sometimes I have succes but sometimes not. I wish you to think and put yourself first and do what works for you. You are doing an amazing job! Greetings from Bulgaria! 😗

[@Michelle-n2i]

My therapist actually had me write down basic cleaning one step at a time for every room in my house, and i put it on my fridge, as a guide and motivation, she said just do one room at a time or if i cant do that, do one thing on the list for one room, it definitely helps me so thought i should share 😊

Veggie Prep tip: chop your summer squash and zucchini then put it in a collandar with salt sprinkled over it, toss to coat, let drain. Maybe 30 minutes. BONUS TIP: do same for your egg plant, and cabbage if you decide to grill or want a dryer product. Then you can pat the chopped/sliced veggies in a flour sack towel before cooking and to wipe off the excess salt liquid. Good Luck!

It’s soooo helpful to see what works for others. For the zucchini, it’s a naturally watery vegetable. Try cooking it separately and for a shorter timeframe, or roast in the oven.

I do the same. It grossed me out to see food in my dish washer. Cleaning out the filter is gross. I'm my state we get so much moisture, not adding to the smell.

Well done keep going! I leave stuff out and around everywhere too 🙈. How many in your house?

[@feraltradwife]

[@feraltradwife]

Clean when you're angry, or you can set aside 30 minutes each day to clean. You'll be surprised how much you can get done.

[@feraltradwife]

@@Alucky6 right. Everyone who has a house like mine totally knows that. It’s the doing that is that hard part.

​@@feraltradwifeThat's when it helps to clean when you're angry. Adrenaline! I only seem to have energy when I'm really, really angry, and then I can conquer the world.

The other comment about the lighting being off is right for instance when you were washing the pans the sink and the surrounding area was really white. When you were folding the laundry the couch was very white. Thats what I have noticed so far, I am watching from a desktop computer not a tv so idk if that makes a difference. Loving the videos so far though!!

[@feraltradwife]

I do believe it gets adjusted in later videos :)

[@djpop7420]

Does the children have any chores?

[@feraltradwife]

Yes. Not on camera :)

One of my mom’s worst cleaning chore is doing the dishes by hand because she’d have to wash her grandma’s dishes by hand and even her great aunts dishes. She vowed that she wouldn’t wash dishes by hand when she got her own house. She’s always had a dishwasher ever since. The older dishwashers you would have to prewash the dishes with the newer dishwashers a person really don’t need to prewash them.
