And In the Fourth Round Focus Cleaning, 2026
Posted: Mon Aug 24, 2026 1:45 pm
Here's our Current Thread!
You're in the right place to chat and easily find each other
in (approximately) the same rooms through 2026. Everybody's waving from their porch at the same time, or in their kitchens at the same time, etc. ( UNLESS - they might be decluttering ahead in the upcoming week's room for easier cleaning! )
For chatting in current time this year, our current thread will always be FIRST in the line-up of topics in the forum.
Our FOURTH round's calendar is in this post. The locked sticky threads about Focus Cleaning are just below, including the full 2026 Focus Cleaning Calendar for planning. A consistently clean home is within reach! It's not that we need to clean everything suddenly
We only need to clean CONSISTENTLY throughout the year 
we know that. Focus is Forgiving! It gives us ONE idea for an already-complete plan of rotation to keep us on track and keep each lovely area from neglect. We don't have to re-invent the wheel, just roll along with the one we have at the ready, a week at a time. Here's a space to chat about our fourth rounds through our homes, which will be from today through the week of Monday, October 26 . Eleven rooms/areas for eleven weeks. Change the room or area names around to suit your home, record them in personal record-keeping if you want, in whatever form you like, and let's go through the house again!
If you are on a different plan for cleaning, please chat with us anyway, okay? We'd love to hear what you are doing through these months. To find some reminders and tips about rooms, check out the locked thread titled, "Clickable - The Eleven Focus areas and their How-To-Clean Notes". The contents listing there allows us to click on a room/area and go right to those Focus notes. (So does the Maintenance thread)
