I can identify with you as to tracked in mud, grass and such. If I cleaned at night I could keep the floor clean until my Husband and little dog got up. Little dog refuses to eat at her food bowl. She doesn't eat crumbs off the floor either. If I tried to keep the floors clean that would be all I would get done.
I work everyday and get home at 5:30P. If I fix supper, I have about two hours of sewing time. I do make the bed and take care of cats, bird and sweep the kitchen before I leave. My Husband washes and dries dishes. He works full time also, I drive us to and from.
