Do you find yourself......................................

while cleaning your house, going from one room to the other instead of just sticking to one room at a time? I was cleaning my house yesterday and realized that I was doing that. Instead of cleaning the living room then the kitchen then the bathroom, I would start a task in each room and find myself all over the place. Is this adult ADD? I hope not.

I tend to start upstairs in the bathroom, then bedrooms and work my way downstairs and finish in the kitchen mopping the floor. Anything downstairs that shouldn't be gets put in a basket to get taken upstairs, but there are days where my heart isn't into it and I just flit or the rest of the house ok but lounge has got a bit messy that sort of thing. As long as place is reasonably up and together I don't mind, housework is a necessity not something I enjoy. Ellie :D

Ellie it seems to me that you have somewhat of a routine as far as cleaning. Maybe it's because you have a two floor home where I have a one-level home. I'll get it together one day! lol

Well, I'd have to say that if it is adult ADD I must have it too cause I have the worst habit of doing that. My house is a total mess right now minus the kitchen and bathroom. That's only cause my husband cleaned them tonight. I do it all the time though...

Yes I do that all the time I will be cleaning one room and go into another room for something and notice someting needs done in there so I will start cleaning that room! It is a little annoying when I do that.

I do that also. I've done that since I was old enough to be on my own. Don't know why I do it but its habit for me. I guess I feel like I get more done. So you are not the only one. Glad to know that I'm not the only one. LOL

Yeah I do that too... I get distracted easily so I'll be doing something in one room, and as I'm replacing back an item from that room to another, I'll find something to clean in the new room... and this can go on and on...
