Throw out the word should from your vocab. It’s never helpful. Adhd or any neurodivergence requires one to learn how their brain works and then how to support that process. Some days you won’t have the energy/interest to do the cleaning AND put away all the things. For me I know that if I don’t take the laundry out of the dryer and put it away immediately, it will sit in the basket unfolded but clean. So sometimes I just dig thru the hamper for clean undies. When my brain gets annoyed with that it will motivate me to put things away. Could take awhile to get to that point, maybe I never get there.
When my laundry is done, I put it on the couch to be folded and put away. It can sit on the couch for days.
