Up until a couple of years ago, I always cleaned on Thursday nights. Here's why. I didn't want to spend my weekend cleaning. I continued with this when I married again. My husband plays golf on Saturday and I will be darned if I'm going to clean on my days off while he plays golf. Then he would say, let's go to dinner on Thursdays, so the cleaning wouldn't get done. I gave up. He now has alzheimers and if I write down what I would like him to do, he will try. I always clean the kitchen and make the bed.
