Cleaning bathrooms everyday? no way, then I wouldn't have time for anything else LOL
I do it as often I need to. Some days require more than others and other times if the house is clean, it may just need a tidy up then that is all I do.
On Mondays I change our bedsheets and do the laundry. I also do more loads on Thursday or Saturday, depending on how much laundry there is to do on those days. I vacuum once a week and clean the bathrooms once a week too. If they need cleaning more often then I do it, if not, then I don't.

I don't think it is necessary to clean your house every day,if it is not dirty at all.But i know that some people clean the room every day even if they are not dirty,they just get used to do it.One women that i know is just like that.She is a very very clean person and she always cleans her house every day.As a matter of fact,it seems that she is a women with cleanliness.She cleans everything in her house,even the flowerpot and the flowers that she raises every day.Can you stand such kind of person,as for me,i can't put up with that kind of person at all.Just think if you spend most of your time do the cleaning,can you have enough time for your work and your entertainment?

I'm kind of in the habit of cleaning the bathroom and kitchen a bit everyday...don't ask why...I only clean all the floors though once a week--but as you know, I'm doing my fall cleaning thing, so I'm doing a much bigger project of cleaning right now....I didn't do the kitchen today..my thorough cleaning--instead I got stuck with going through papers I wanted to organize...crap, that's boring to do! Had to be done though. Might tackle the kitchen tomorrow..heehhee

I am an 'as needed' kind of girl. I tried once to have a schedule for cleaning my house but something always happened to throw off my schedule. Now I just roll with the punches and clean as things get dirty. It works for us.

I have two little children who always make our rooms and house dirty every day. They always play with their toys, and of course I will be the one who need to clean up. That of course happen every day, so it become routine thing in my daily life. Cleaning is becoming every day life I guess for a mother n a wife like me.

I clean my kitchen everyday, but not my bathroom. We do need a new floor, and I do put the blue thing in the toilet when the water looks funny. Other than that, I only clean once a week.
The only time is after we take a bath and you have the bathroom ring. As for the sink, if you wipe it clean after you use it, there is no need to take out the clorex and do a real thorough cleaning that is mainly for show anyway.

Hey Terry, With being a stay at home mom I find myself cleaning around the clock. It never ends, but I would have to agree with you. If its not dirty then I don't clean it. I could not fathom cleaning the whole bathroom everyday. I will run a sweeper over the floor everyday, but that is only because I lose hair very badly so I have to keep the floors swept. Other than that my bathroom gets a good cleaning once a week.

Heck no. I hate cleaning...things like sweeping and mopping and vaccuming. I clean things usually once a month really or every other week if needed more often. If it's dirty, I clean it. If it's not dirty I see no point in cleaning it. I live alone and I have no one to impress. I don't live messy though, I just don't think it's necessary to consistantly clean.

Hi TerryZ! I am just staying home most of the time and I just do some crafts at home so, I have more time to clean the house which I do on a regular basis. I do clean our bathrooms everyday but there are a few times that I simply can't or simply won't because I don't feel like it or I have an early appointment. Take care and have a nice day!

I'm so busy during the week that I barely get time to do any tidying up so I do it all on weekends. It doesn't get super dirty or anything, probably because I don't have any kids yet. I do all the cleaning even if it doesn't look dirty. I figure there's probably bacteria and stuff that I just can't see. Really you just get on a roll and do everytihng.

Hiya I think most ppl are like you. I clean the bathroom weekly..as I m the only person using . Although I do like to scrub the sink every other day ie before its obviously dirty.. I like clean sinks! hehe . Kitchen has to be cleaned daily, coz it gets dirty daily. The rest of house on a need to basis..We dont have little kids in our house and everyones quite tidy so its basically a case of vacuuming up dust and oh the house is starting to look dull so Twice a week for the house is enough. If I'm, feeling extra enthusiastic a quick run through the whole place with a damp floor mop,(we have tiles) brightens up the place.

I wish I was the sort of person who always cleaned up but it is something I tend to ignore if I can. When my children were little it was more important as it is not good for them for everything to be untidy but it doesn't seem as important these days. However I am in the middle of decorating my house at the moment and de cluttering so once it is finished it will be easy to keep clean and tidy as everything is going to be kept minimal ie no ornaments etc to catch the dust.
