The obvious and fair solution to the housework problem is to let men do the housework for, say, the next six thousand years, to even things up. The trouble is that men, over the years, have developed an inflated notion of the importance of everything they do, so that before long they would turn housework into just as much of a charade as business is now. They would hire secretaries and buy computers and fly off to housework conferences in Bermuda, but they’d never clean anything.
~ Dave Barry
A clean house is the sign of a boring person.

I don’t hate men, I just wish they’d try harder. They all want to be heroes and all we want is for them to stay at home and help with the housework and the kids. That’s not the kind of heroism they enjoy. ~ Jeanette Winterson One of the advantages of being disorderly is that one is constantly making exciting discoveries. ~ A.A. Milne |

I like the last quote the best. When my life has been the most busy, and the happiest, the housework suffers a bit. I seem to clean a lot when bored or sad. Interesting ??? Not sure. ☺

I like a clean and orderly house, but I don’t strive for perfection or anything.
I tell you, a little housework is good for the soul. Too much housework will kill ya.

I don’t like dust, dirty dishes or grimy floors. I actually like laundry and dishwashing. I hate scrubbing the bathrooms washing mirrors, and srubbing the refrigerator and stove, but I do it all.

Right on. I don’t mind laundry in summer, but our winter laundry is a bit overwhelming, lol! Still, two kids make less laundry than four, so I won’t complain too much.
I do not like washing dishes. I have to force myself into gratitude while washing dishes. I can’t stand to wake up to a messy kitchen, so what are my choices?
