I've been trying to clean for a week, yesterday and today I've spent actually making some headway. My grandma is coming to town so I'm trying to spruce up the place! Not very exciting for the fleeting weekends of the summer, so I thought I'd live vicariously through you all!

P.S. you can't clean without music: Sorry for the YouTube link but I've been unable to use the alternatives recently

That's awesome, busy day! I can understand not being sold on a video you just made, I've been wanting to make videos for a while now but can't quite find my place. Curating can be difficult!

When I'm cleaning downstairs I love putting on a record since it helps time management a little bit, gives me that 2-5 minute break to switch the record, feel the weight of the last song in silence, get some water and get back to cleaning after flipping it! I recently found a couple pieces of carousel music which have just been awesome!

I'm with you 100% on the music helping with time management, there's nothing like putting on an album with the right bpm for what needs to get accomplished. And the small dance movements, head bops, and shimmies while working helps to prevent getting burned out on the chores. Plus that feeling of serendipity when the task completes around the same time as the album.... pure magic.
