jen5-03 · March 2010

The problem with answering something like this is that I often do bits and pieces, but not the whole thing. So maybe I cleaned the bathroom sink, or maybe I cleaned the toilet, or changed the towels or washed the bathmats, or scrubbed the tub... but unless I'm having guests, there's no chance that I did all of that in the same day.

How often do you:

Vaccuum - once a week if we're lucky.

Dust - ummm... dust? almost never. I vacuum the lampshades and baseboards. We don't have a lot of knicknacks to dust.

Sweep - sweep up dry spills as they happen. Otherwise I vacuum my hard floors too.

Mop - mop of spills as they happen, but even with a floor mate I don't do this that often.

Clean the bathrooms - see above.

These other ones just have me curious as they are probably done as needed or not as often as the others:

Wash windows - almost never.

Clean the inside of your fridge - my new years resolution was to waste less food and it's going pretty well, so I almost never have old food to toss. I clean the inside of the fridge all the time so it doesn't really get gross (without a bunch of food sitting in there it's easy to shift things around and wipe down a whole shelf quickly without pulling things out)

What about daily things or things you do often:

Wash dishes - put dishes in the dishwasher daily

Do laundry - 3-4x/week

Change sheets on your bed - as needed... probably monthly.

Change LO's sheets -as needed... at least once a week if not more. I swear that no diaper on this earth can hold her overnight pee.

These are all pretty random things, feel free to add any more, this is all I could think of right now!
