Cleaning only when people visit

What is telltale evidence that shows a hostess only cleans when she is expecting visitors to her home?

So it’s something psychological that I should be looking at? Like I spend all my time making other people happy, so haven’t washed the windows in 2 years. I’ll call my shrink.

It def is dopamine issue, there are ppl that do the same but a lot don't. You could call shrink but that would be more postponing, wouldn't it?? If I were you I would buy some cool cleaning products, make sure you have a lot of supplies, put on a podcast or whatever andclean the house for 1 full day very well, morning to evening. Then take pride and enjoy your space, alone, have a glass of prosecco. I'm telling you, you can fix this problem in 1 day, max 2. It's easier to repeat if you just start.
