do you cheat when you clean

Sometimes I just don't feel like doing anything, so before dh comes home I will put some pine sol on the steam mop cloth and do a quick run through the house. That stuff smells so freaking good and makes him think i'm super woman taking care of the kids and cleaning. What's your go to trick?

Re: do you cheat when you clean

  • I'm really bad OCD about the house being clean, so its pretty much always clean. Anytime DS is playing with something alone I'll clean something before I join him.

  • I don't cheat at home but at work I do.  I am a nurse at a group home and we are expected to clean at night.  One of the jobs is sweep and mop all the floors at night.  I just swifter the foot prints most nights and clean stuff that is visibly dirty.

    How do you do this?  I need a clean house.  I helps me to function better.  I clean during DD's nap times, but I always feel like she or DH is messing something up somewhere else.  I just feel like I'm never "caught up".

    I spread things out. I do a room a day and it takes about 30 min tops. This started when I was pregnant with #2. My house is cleaner now then before I had DS. 

    If you get bored cleaning your house you're welcome to come over and clean mine.

    Maybe this will help.  Thank you.  I feel really overwhelmed a lot.  My house isn't horrible and when other people come over, they always make comments like "well you should see my house!"  However, my house isn't up to my standards.
