I think I am a little cleaner (I hope) than my mom was r.i.p. I iron once a week, not everything just about 20 items for the 4 of us. I do like the family dinner together at the table and thats how my parents were ...no tv...good manners, etc. I really think its important to do this at least a few times a week.

My parents were pretty naive about things though I think I am a lot stricter about where my kids are and what they are doing because I got away with too much. We always had 3 cats in the house but the dog was always outside.....casey is always inside.
