but I usually fall short. Other than a Cleaning service, can anyone make a suggestion???

Thanks for your help!!

Okay enough complaining. The way I clean my house.

1)I have my husband and my kids take all of the dirty laudry to the basement, (I cannot carry it)

2)The tubs are scrubbed by kids. Toilets are

reserved for dad because Future Trophy Wife

could not possibly clean the throne she uses

multiple times a day.

3)Dusting is done by me as long as it is eye level,

Everything higher or lower is done by someone who

cares to look, or it is no done at all.

4)All rugs are picked up and shook by my wonerful

16 year old son who lovingly complains the

whole time.

5)Time out for lecture on why we are doing

this and reminder of how much money we gave

them last weekend.

6)Time out for food--no food---no work

7)Husband redoes the vaccuming after wonderful son

does lousey job stating the whole time

that in his day he would do it till he got it

right.

8)Wonderful daughter accomplishes lots of

laundry in basement while hiding from angry

dad.

9)Angry dad gives lecture number 2 detailing

why they are doing the cleaning and that

I can't help it I am sick (like they haven't

heard that one before.)

10)Angry dad shoves mop around middle of floor

in his best attempts of mopping (but at

least it smells clean) and rugs are

replaced and house returns to normal

(or as normal as it ever was.) Ssndi

No more than one room a day! And, sometimes it takes ALL day to do that ONE room...but that's okay...it gets done!

My living room, kitchen, and bathroom get cleaned by my boyfriend now, but our bedrooms never get touched. My kids are five and seven, but I can't get them to clean their own room unless I have some kind of reward for them lol.
