No way am I going out on that porch in these temperatures.
Kathryn can hang out clothes in the snow if she wants to.
This spoiled Southerner cannot take this freezing weather!
I try to include the study in this round, b/c it is right off the front door and a very seldom used room. Right now it DESPERATELY needs attention from ddad b/c of the leaky roof and the stain on the ceiling... but... that is not happening this week, I'm sure.
And on these days that dinlaws & other errands take all afternoon, well... I'll just do the best I can and try to keep up with y'all.

When I came back from my walk today I was noticing how nice it looked
after cleaning in the carport earlier in the week or last week
I think it was I for get now in any case it looked good!

Second round same as the first.
Are you finding it easier each time since you are only doing part of the list.

Seems to my like I've been spending some time sweeping entrances daily
this time of year on the patio deck [not porch here] and front steps, carport and walk way
but it does make it look better.

I have gratitudes this round. I am so blessed to have been able to hire painters who just weeks ago cleaned/scraped surfaces and painted both my own front porch and my ddad's (back) screened porch and "front" door. Now my ddad has a brighter, more cheerful place to welcome visitors (who always come to the back!) It sounds strange, but somehow the screened porch seems safer for him, now that the walls are painted bright white again.
Also I have to admit I am grateful to dstepson32 for spraying herbicide on the "rocks side" (inner - paralleling house) of my front walkway. I had been pulling any weeds there on along, and didn't want it sprayed, but then got sick and just couldn't be outside working in the heat and humidity, so his idea was better.
What I want to do this round is clean the 4 windows at my front and back doors inside and out. It will not take a ladder, just a chair should do. The light fixtures could use some attention. Also, I might research natural spider repellents. We don't have big spiders - we have those little ones who make instant, thick webs.
