Boy, do I ever miss having a cleaning lady. If DH gets a raise....maybe???
I was also youngest girl in a picky-mom's house. All the cleaning every Saturday. I never liked weekends!!
Our house is usually not terrible, but it's not great. Bathroom once a week, when we're not too busy, but sometimes it gets a quick cleaning because someone is coming over.
Sheets are usually once a week, sometimes longer if our weekends are too busy. The duvet cover not very often since the pets are no longer allowed on the bed. (I LOVE our new bedroom, but the dogs and cat would not agree)
Worst thing in our house is the light coloured carpet and the 2 border collies. It only takes a few days for the carpet to look like it needs to be combed!
Was at someone's house not long ago and the boyfriend made a comment about how he'd spent the day cleaning. I used the washroom and was nearly afraid to touch anything it was so dirty. Our bathroom has rarely, maybe never, reached that stage of dirtiness. Maybe if we were both sick for a week and it had already gone too long or something.....
I'm so relieved to know that those picture perfect houses are not the way everyone lives!! Yay!
Hugs and butterflies,
~T~
