My quilting room is the dustiest one in the house

i have always attributed it to the fabrics, threads and batting shedding just that much every time they are cut or fooled with. I don't mind. It is easy enough to dust. I keep a Dyson stick vacuum in that room ready to use. I have another one downstairs.

In don't have any ailments or allergies
except seasonal ones so for me it is just the way it is

That's what caught my eye too. I can't imagine vacuuming daily, and DH couldn't either.

Well, that explains the dust on the cupboard in my sewing room where I store some of my quilts! I never thought about the dust being from fabric. I could dust that piece of furniture daily as it seems to be a dust magnet. Guess it is time for me a better housekeeper in my sewing room and to dust and vac more often.

My husband doesn’t even know we have a vacuum! Never mind use it! But he does wash dishes, does laundry and occasionally cooks. So I’m not complaining about the vacuuming.

My husband and I share housework and cooking. He's cleaning the fridge now because he couldn't find the jar of jelly this morning. Funny because there was no jelly in the fridge but he moved every item to look. We have lawn service, we both dislike yard work.

So true! I've never vacuumed daily. My mom did but not me.

When my boys were little I remember vacuuming at least once a day sometimes twice.
Well now after all these years my middle son is a vacuum cleaning maniac! His wife commented on it and he told her my Mom did so every day LOLOLOL. He's a neat freak for sure.

My DH does all the vacuuming, dusting, scrubbing the floors, cleaning windows, cleaning the shower, in addition to yard work, basically all the heavy work. I can't do most of that or it would knock me down for days. I will help out, with holding ladders, picking up fallen twigs, handing things to him as needed like another paper towel when he does the windows, or a tool that he needs, etc. I do all the clutter, sinks and toilets, laundry, the cooking and meal clean up, and most all of the lighter work. Anything else that comes up, we either both do it, or if it is heavier, he will do it, if it is lighter, I'll do it.

We are partners in all, what one can't do, the other does. We work as a team. It's been that way since we first got married. No complaints, no nagging, if we see that it needs done, it gets taken care of and if one of us can help the other while doing the work, we are right there..

I admit that even if the waste basket was right beside me and as big as a tub, my scraps and threads would still end up on the floor. I try really hard, to grab my sewing room broom (yes, I have a dedicated broom lol) and sweep up all that 'stuff' every evening before I head upstairs. If I am planning to load a quilt, the central vac comes out and everything gets a good going over before I touch the machine.

DH uses the Dyson on all the rugs. I use the central vac on the hardwood and vinyl flooring. Sharing that load does help both our backs. I do the laundry and he most often lately, takes care of the dishes. I do almost all the cooking, altho, the other evening I desperately wanted to finish what I was sewing and gave him minimal instructions about what we had and what could be done with it. He made a very tasty stew style casserole from leftovers with added fresh veggies. Wish he'd take the initiative tho.

I have central vac in my home and it is way too much trouble for me to use. It sounds great and I was excited to use it when we bought the house. It's not great. Getting it all hooked up and other things is just too much. I don't have the patience for it. That long hose has to go somewhere out of site.
