Since we are both retired now, the house needs dusting and vacuuming most any time. But I usually get up on Friday mornings and do everything. My husband helps more now than ever. He runs the steamer after I vacuum, then I do most of the dusting. Works for us. I get to sew/quilt everyday, if I choose to and I do.

I was just thinking about this subject yesterday as I was putting a new quilt top together. I would love to hire a cleaning service. I work hard all week at my job and all I want to do on the weekend is enjoy it relaxing. My DH gets to do what he wants so why shouldn't I do the same. Well I do have to get the laundry done today after church and lunch. But then I will be sewing again. I sure am gaining a lot of weight as well doing all the working at my job and sitting around sewing.

Yep. Thats me! My floors need vacuming. All those little threads are beginning to show. there are dishes in the sink. the bed isn't made. But, I have made myself a promise that I will set aside at least one hour a day for housework. (After I finish this quilt.)LOL
