Do you keep a spotless house that looks like something out of a magazine? Or do you clean just enough to get by? Do you clean at all? Or do you possibly have one of those wonderful things called a maid?
Well I definately don't have a maid. Idon't think one could keep up with my messy kids. They love to make messes. Don't all toddlers. I guess I would be one of those taht cleans enough to get by. then once a month I just start throwing everything away. Somehow my kids have more toys everyday. Just wanted to ask and see. I'm not sure everyone will be honest but maybe so. How clean is your house?

My children love to play outside so the summer makes it easier. Besides I find it harder to clean when everyone is in the house I feel like I am wasting time because everyone watches and noone helps. Thanks a lot.

I don't think there are any circumstances under which my house could be described as clean! Well, I object to dirty but no-one in this house is very good at putting things away. The house is tiny, and we just seem to create clutter. If anyone came round & organised the house for me, I might manage to keep it like that, but I think the only way for me to do it would be throw all the contents into the garden & start again!!

My house is clean enough to be healthy, and cluttered enough to be happy. I'm not a big house keeper. I keep my dished done, the floors swept and vacuumed, and the laundry done. Other than that, it's a hit and miss type thing. If I've got time, I'll hit it. If not, I won't miss the work.
I should probably be a little better at the whole house keeping thing, as I used to clean other people's houses for them. But, I'm not getting paid $10 an hour to do my own, so it doesn't get the attention it needs. LOL
Great question, BTW.

You know what, it is a good thing that you asked this question. I started to ask the same question myself. Well, not to brag but I am pretty much clean. I do keep my house clean. I am very neat. It can get messy at times, but when it is time to clean it up, I am a spotless fanatic. I wish you could come and see,it does look like something out of a magazine.

Well we have 6 kids and my house is well lived in, we have stuff everywhere. Our dishes are done, and my toilet is clean, the beds arent made, but the clothes are folded, the floor is swept but we have 16 shoes(8 peoples worth) in a pile in the front porch area. I could go on, but I think you get the picture. I dont have a house that comes from a mag or tv show,and dont care to. As far as I'm concerned,the bed making patrol isn't making house calls, and I'm not on this earth to impress. I live a good life, and it can get messy and I like it that way!

I'm not the kind who is so fussy about cleanliness. As the no swamps buzzing around, my nose is not caught any bad smell and i can breath clearly without sucking any dust, it will be fine for me. The more important is i am comfortable in the house.

The floors and bathroom in my house is very clean. Can't stand dirty floors and slimy walled bathrooms. Slime has no chance to stay in the bathrooms in my house. My husband and I take things out and put em back where they belong. But once in a while when we get real busy then things will start be all over the place and after a good rest like the next day we will just put em all back to where they belong. But floor and bathroom is always clean no matter busy or not busy. Kitchen is always neat and clean.am a tupperware custom kitchen planner so gotta live by it!!!
