This can be a place for encouragement, validation or just to brag a little if you choose. Maybe itll give others a boost to continue or a reminder that they CAN DO IT

Turning over today BH and cooking for a week straight. We're hosting and we hardly use any ingredients so I really have my work cut out for me.

We didn’t have gan on Sunday so I shopped. The rest of the week we do have gan… I’m flipping Motzei Shabbos.
The bedrooms and bathrooms are clean (need a final mop and the sheets changed) and have been checked. No tiny people have chometz this week, so I know they’ll stay chometz free…
My cupboard are mostly cleared, so they need to be wiped out.
We have to look at what we have as far as dishes and make a list of things to buy/toivel.
I think we’re in a good place all things considered.

I think you're a superwoman! I gave birth this past Friday and I'm beyond grateful that I'll be going to my parents for Yom Tov with my 5 kids.
Good for you! Hope all goes smoothly and you have an amazing YT.

Refuah Shelaimah!
I'll make everyone else feel good lol. I've cleaned one bedroom and part of the DR. Hoping to somehow turn over on Motzei Shabbos. We only have one day of YT so I only need to cook 2 meals.
I did most of my shopping already and menu. Cleaning need to do kitchen, finish DR, LR, BR, quick check of BA, and porch.

I plan on turning over Thursday night and I'm not too far behind you. We only cleaned the playroom closet. Kids did their drawers. Cleaning lady did her regular cleaning but asked her to do a bit better. She is coming tomorrow to help me with the kitchen. Dh is going to do rest of house. Besides kitchen. Rest of house is probably a couple.hours tops.
Someone gifted me a car cleaning so that was done bh.
Pesach cleaning shouldn't take hours. It's literally just looking for chometz.
I am also 5 weeks post partum bh.

My plan for today is to continue in the kitchen and do the bulk shopping this evening . I’m working all day , so I did some kitchen work this morning before work and will do some after .
Tomorrow I plan to turn over the kitchen but the rest of my house for the most part wasn’t touched yet . I’m taking it very easy . I don’t feel stressed which is kind of weird for me since I usually start Pesach cleaning 12 weeks in advance. This year is different. I have a lot going on in my life and Pesach prep took the back seat for now. I know I’ll get there , so not worried or nervous . It just won’t have all the spring cleaning involved that I usually like to do.

I have no help and work fulltime. Bh we are only home chol hamoed and last days. I do need to bake to take along so we have breakfast and snacks.
I hope to kosher tomorrow night. It means I have to clean my fridge and stove in the next 24 hours.
My teen kids refuse to help. They don't say it outright, they just tell me that they will help at 2 pm, in 10 minutes. Dh just tells me he is exhausted because he works. I feel like crying.
No idea how I will manage when we do stay home all Pesach (which is likely next year, for various reasons)
