I do it every Christmas eve: a big cleanup. Dusted, vacuumed, cleaned windowsills, threw stuff out, fluffed up floor mats, rearranged stuff, had a few tinnies of kirin hyok lemon periodically. I always figure that, aside from cooking Christmas lunch, absolutely fuck all else is being done over the next couple of days. It feels like new years already straight after Christmas for me for some reason, and I like to feel like I've cleaned 🤷🏼‍♀️ Also I watched this post where a woman cleaned a house that had an absolutely horrific cockroach infestation and my reaction to it was physical lol.

I’ve done this, too. Wanted a fresh start and to mark the work year being over. And the house was trashed so definitely needed it

Even if I was staying on after Xmas I'd absolutely do the same. The year pretty much kinda ends on Xmas so I agree with you whole heartedly about truly relaxing in that sacred period where everyone basically agrees that it's okay to do fuck all

How tasty are those cans?! I've also been doing some cleaning today, just helps set the tone for tomorrow!
