When I have a cleaning session, I just think of the exercise I'm getting and the money I'm saving. There's an old saying that goes something like this: "Housework, when done right, will kill you." It's not for the faint of heart. <br />Oh, and here's another one: "Housework is something nobody notices until you don't do it."<br />My house often falls into this quote category. I have a very high dirt and dust bunny tolerance. I wish I were more like my mother and had a daily cleaning routine.<br />xo, RosemaryContent in a Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10075511188721176895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7823162730236792476.post-6806603295944693672015-04-09T07:48:44.716-04:002015-04-09T07:48:44.716-04:00Gail....I'm happy for you.

If I know I'll have the day to myself and don't have to leave the house, I pull on the roomiest, grubbiest sweats I own. Even better if there's leftovers in the fridge that only require reheating at the end of an exhausting day of cleaning.<br /><br />Since my husband died, entertaining is about the only incentive to clean, and my beautiful daughter is arriving April 24th.
