gee, i must be the only one... my house is always clean..except my sewing room if i'm involved in a project..


i can't stand dishes in the sink.. allergic to dust, so we dust & vacuum at least once a week...i start a wash 3-4 mornings a week b4 leaving for work... add the yardwork...youngest dd gets to help a lot, especially in the summer.

and i still have time to work 50 hrs a week, course, i don't have a choice about that one... 3 mile walk most nights after work..

and i still have time to quilt, or paint...or go on this board...

i think its just a matter of organization & putting things away when your done with them.... if the house stays picked up.. it only takes 1/2 hr to dust one nite, 1/2 vacuum the next nite... i can't relax & quilt or read if the house needs attention...

someone who doesn't know that the only place that housework comes before quilting is in the dictionary

maid service!

thats why you need more than one :thumbup:

a person with no small children. (as I look at the toys strewn all over my living room floor)

What is this clean house you speak of?

LOL

no ideas or in a slump. sue

IMHO......

I sat here and thought about this for a while and decided that
1. you must be a lot younger than I am.
2. your house is a lot smaller than mine - I still live in the one I raised my kids in, despite the fact that they are nearing the age 50 mark - they used to say they could play basketball in the attic, and there REALLY is enough room up there - above the 2nd floor. The house has 5 bedrooms.
3.you can still SEE the dust
4. you care about the dust a whole lot more than I do -LOL

All this talk about cleaning finally made me call my cleaning lady. She's coming Monday.
