Do you/Will you handle your household differently from your parents?

Dishes-my mom religiously washed dishes after we ate. Me, I hate dishes and they can sit in the sink for days

Laundry-my mom always ironed...everything! Jeans, handkerchifes, the works. I only iron if needed (and sometimes not then ).

Dogs-when I was young we had a poodle (yep, we were only allowed 1 dog). This way there was no hair laying all over. My mom would have freaked if she had to live with my 3 hairy kids!

Dusting & Vacuumning-my mom did it EVERY day. I probably dust once a month, if that. I usually just use the vacumn to vacumn the dust
But I do usually vacuumn every day, otherwise we'd be lost in the dog hair!

Shoes-my dad absolutely hated shoes anywhere but in the closet where they belong. Now that I have my own home I put my shoes wherever I want! Sometimes I will have 3-4 pairs strown throughout the house

Cars-we always had to wash the car and clean it out about 2x's a week. I'm lucky if mine gets cleaned out 2x's a year, but I do usually keep it washed, And I don't do it myself, I take it to the car wash. After all that's what they're for...right?!

Almost forgot this one:
Eating at the table-we were never allowed to eat anywhere but at the table. We always had our meals together.
But with only me & hubby, we eat in the living room in front of the tv. The table is used as a "catch all"!


I'm sure there is more, but that's all I can think of right now.
And just so you know, I'm not a nasty person, my house & car are both very tidy...just not necessarly clean
