I am REALLY lazy about doing housework and I DON''T LIKE IT!!! I do not like having a messy place at all but I just can't seem to do anything about it half the time. I really hate having to come home after working all day to do housework, bleah! I've tried to make a house cleaning schedule and stuff but I lose interest really quickly.
:rolleyes:

No wonder! ;) But we have to pull ourselves together! Clean up all the time, so there won't be as much! It can be "dangerous" to leave it!

Perhaps listen to some music, that generarates more energy! ;) and you do a room at a time - properly!

And close the computer while you're doing it! :D :D

Something I found that has helped. I get almost everything cleaned up before I go to work in the morning. 20-30 minutes is usually all it takes (if I do it every morning!). Then when I come home dog tired at night, there isn't that much to do. Then on the weekend, I do the stuff that takes a bit longer (ie bird cage, laundry, etc.)

Thanks for those tips :) another tip I heard is to put back anything you take out...that will save you a ton of timer later!
i just tidied up some stuff...it's a start! but I need to vacuum, do laundry etc

The worst is cleaning the animal hospital, (vacuming, mopping, scrubbing, laundry, garbage.....) then having to come home and clean the house!!!

LMAO shiznit.

I don't know why, but i love to clean toher people's houses/ help them but I HATE cleaning mine. There's someitmes where i go on a little cleaning frenzy and pick up things in the house... my dad and brother both vacuum when they get mad! lol Ask Lauren! When the floor's dirty, you know they've been in a good mood! When i was little i used to go to my neighbors house and my thing was to clean and pine sol their wood tables. I'd take every little thing off, put it on the counter and clean them! Then put it back perfectly how it was lol. I used to like the vacuum too, i liked spreading the powdery smelly stuff over the floor. :D

KayAnn, I like to clean other peoples house much better than my own. I never minded going to help my mom clean when she was alive. The thing is at someone elses house you don't get side tracked all the time. ( thinking I should move this here and I need to buy this and then start looking through stuff in the closet) Thats what happens to me anyway.
