The tasks I do annually are things like moving the oven and the fridge and cleaning under and behind them.Annually ?OMG. Nope-nope-nope.
I clean like that all the time. Turning "deep" cleaning into "light" cleaning.

Cleaning is like painting a ship. You start at one end and finish at the other. Then you start again. My place is never 100% clean at any one time, but I have four rooms, and two of them are workshop. There is a sign posted quoting my dad's pre-nup: "Sawdust is not dirt." It does stay sanitary, but not tidy or guest-ready.
You should see me after using a router on aluminum. Flakes everywhere, like aluminum foil confetti.I call sawdust my husband's "man glitter".
