My relentless mother is very particular about how the house is cleaned and organized before company comes to visit us. Personally, I think that cleaning is mundane and boring! My mom is very adamant and stubborn about her cleaning process. She expects the house to be cleaned exactly how she likes it, without any deviation. She never listens to me when I say that my friends don't care if the house is clean when they come over. Trying to get my mom to change her ways feels like an uphill battle. Sometimes I find parts of her cleaning process unnecessary and excessive. For example, we have to even clean under the stove and fridge! Cleaning the house for guests and adhering to my mom’s process has become monotonous since I have had to do it so many times before. If the house is not cleaned before company arrives, my mom will make plans to distract the guests from coming into the house straight away so she can finish cleaning.
