I’ve just swept and mopped. Once the floor dries, I could easily go sweep again and turn up more dust and dirt. If I were to mop again, I’m almost certain the water in my bucket would be filthy. It feels like it’s never actually clean.
Beyond that, there’s dusting, cleaning windows, sinks, countertops, bathrooms, and probably things I don’t even consider. How do you all stay on top of these things?
You’ll never be able to get things clean - all you will be able to manage is “cleaner than it was before.” It becomes easier if you accept that.
And unless you’re trying to save money on buying dishes by eating on the floor, it shouldn’t really matter if they have a bit of dirt on them.
