I use to use vinegar alot because so many of the store cleaners bothered me and I didnt think they were very safer but recently I found this company call Melaleuca which provides safer non-toxic cleaners and personal products and now my house doesnt have to smell like vinegar! Its great I can use these products and not have an asthma attack or worry that my kids might hurt themselves with them plus now my kids can help clean!

most of the household chores makes me feel so lazy..lol but i really hate most is doing the dishes, like it has no never ending dishes inside the dishwasher, and also washing the clothes, that makes me so tired everytime i do the laundry and sometimes, when i do cooking, but dont have choice but to do the household chores..

I really hate housework and try to avoid it as much as I can. However, if I have to do the ironing, I put a little fresh lemon juice into the water in the steam iron, it gives the clothes a lovely fresh smell.

Those are great tips Thanks for sharing them. I dont like house work either. To motivate myself I set the timer. I tell myself lets see if I can clean the bathroom before the timer rings I usually set it for 15 minutes per room. I hate losing so this really helps me.
