Re: Ok ladies, let's come clean
1) How often do you clean your bathroom? So far nto since we've moved in, so its been a while, but we've been painting and unpacking so it hasn't had time to get dirty!
2) How often do you mop your floors? So far never, I need to do this soon.
3) Is your bed made every day? Usually!
4) Do you have a cleaning schedule? (care to share?) Not at all...I just try to keep up on it each day.
5) What is your favorite cleaning product? Hmmm...
6) What tasks are your responsibility and which ones are DH's? We split!
Before you snicker and point at my filthiness, remember that I have 2 kids!!
1) How often do you clean your bathroom?
Once per week, usually
2) How often do you mop your floors?
Once per week, usually. I vacuum rugs 1-2 times per week
3) Is your bed made every day?
HELL NO!!!
4) Do you have a cleaning schedule? (care to share?)
I pick one room other than the bathroom (which I do every week) to be my "room that I clean when I have some free time" each week.
5) What is your favorite cleaning product?
SIMPLE GREEN
6) What tasks are your responsibility and which ones are DH's?
For the most part - inside stuff is mine (Laundry, cleaning bathroom and other rooms) and outside stuff (mowing lawn, snow removal, putting out the trash, taking care of car maintenance) is DHs.
1) I clean the bathroom itself once a week, I spray the tub every morning though
2) I mop the floors when they get visibly dirty but I swiffer wet jet them all the time!
3) Technically, yes. My bed that I no longer sleep in is now suddenly made every day. I dont know why husband started to do that. I thought it was interesting. Otherwise no, Ive never made my bed.
4) I clean a lot on Saturdays but generally I clean the kitchen every 2 nites or so.
5) Magic Eraser
6) I guess theyre all kinda mine except fixing the house. But he will...sometimes maybe do a load of laundry.
2) How often do you mop your floors? Uhhh, never....I sweep and vaccuum every other day though
3) Is your bed made every day? nope
4) Do you have a cleaning schedule? (care to share?) nope
5) What is your favorite cleaning product? clorox wipes
6) What tasks are your responsibility and which ones are DH's? They're all mine unless I specifically ask him to do something
hehe, cute title!!
1) How often do you clean your bathroom? At LEAST once a week... I can't stand it when it gets all grimey and gross, ugh!
2) How often do you mop your floors? I'm a swiffer girl, but I use a real mop about once a month just to keep the floors shiny...
3) Is your bed made every day? that'd be a HUGE negative... usually by the time I leave for work one of the cats has made themselves comfortable and I'm a loser and don't have the heart to move them so I can make the bed... it gets made when the sheets and blankets get washed and that's about it!!!
4) Do you have a cleaning schedule? (care to share?) Saturday Mornings are my "cleaning" time, DH is at work and I'm home...
5) What is your favorite cleaning product? Mr. Clean wipes.. LOVE them!!!!!
6) What tasks are your responsibility and which ones are DH's? DH does the Trash, Vaccuming and Laundry, he washes and I fold...but he's a good sport, and sometimes he'll load the dishwasher if the sink is full ... I take care of everything else for the most part!
1) How often do you clean your bathroom? Every saturday.
2) How often do you mop your floors? eh....other week?? But, if I do see a big stain or spill I do clean it up. I clean almost nightly the aread of floor underneath Brianna's highchair!
3) Is your bed made every day? YES! I'm obessed with making the bed and making sure the sheets are nice and smooth = )
4) Do you have a cleaning schedule? (care to share?) Not really. Every saturday I clean the bathrooms, vacuum the house, and clean the kitchen. Every couple of saturdays I mop the kitchen floor and dust. Its so hard to keep up on everything when you have a toddler and a dog who shed like crazy!!
5) What is your favorite cleaning product? Pledge! = )
6) What tasks are your responsibility and which ones are DH's? I do 99% of the cleaning and laundry...
1) How often do you clean your bathroom? When I notice there are piles of dust bunnies, hair, toothpaste globs and/or towels accumulating.
2) How often do you mop your floors? When my shoes start to stick to the floor...
3) Is your bed made every day? LMFAO
4) Do you have a cleaning schedule? (care to share?) I clean when I have to. Have to = in-laws are coming, the house is being put on the market, or DH threatens to leave if it's not cleaned.
5) What is your favorite cleaning product? Anything that does the work for me, like that new shower cleaner that sprays automatically every day. That's pretty cool.
6) What tasks are your responsibility and which ones are DH's? DH does the laundry. I do everything else (when I actually do it, which is rare).
3) Is your bed made every day? LMFAO
LOL that's how I feel.
1) How often do you clean your bathroom? Kids, powder room and master bathrooms get cleaned once a week. Guest bathroom once every 2 weeks.
2) How often do you mop your floors? Once every two weeks or so depending on the level of grossness.
3) Is your bed made every day? Yup.
4) Do you have a cleaning schedule? (care to share?) Used to but I couldn't stand not doing it myself. I am a control freak.
5) What is your favorite cleaning product? The Swiffer Duster. Love that little sucker.
6) What tasks are your responsibility and which ones are DH's? Him = his & the kids laundry and taking out the trash for the most part.
Me = Everything else.
A poll for those who don't use a cleaning service:
1) How often do you clean your bathroom? a good top to bottom clean every 3 weeks or so but I clean the toilet and the tub every week
2) How often do you mop your floors? thats what Dh is for:)
3) Is your bed made every day? Yeah right!!!
4) Do you have a cleaning schedule? (care to share?) nope just when ever I have time
5) What is your favorite cleaning product? Kaboom and those scrubbing bubles scrubber
6) What tasks are your responsibility and which ones are DH's? I handel the bathroom, the laundy he takes care of the floors (mopping, sweeping, vacuum etc) and the back yard (cleaning up after Faith) and the trash, we take turns with dishes and the litter box.
Oh, this could be embarassing.
1) How often do you clean your bathroom?
Every two weeks, when the cleaning lady comes. I will personally(or DH will) handle anything overly narsty or cluttered.
2) How often do you mop your floors?
I don't, I swiffer them, and they get a good washing every two weeks.
3) Is your bed made every day?
To quote Whitney, HELL TO THE NO. I get back in it too often.
4) Do you have a cleaning schedule? (care to share?)
Not really. The end of day stuff is the most "regular." Cleaning off the table, loading the dishwasher, wiping down countertops, sweeping up whatever cheerios/misc food that Alex has tossed up off the floor, and then in the AM emptying the dishwasher again.
5) What is your favorite cleaning product?
Freaking Lysol wipes. Holy crap, I love those.
6) What tasks are your responsibility and which ones are DH's?
Now that I am home, I've taken over doing and folding laundry. He helps put it away. I also cook the meals and do the food shopping. He cleans up afterwards. Sometimes I need to clean up what he cleans up.
He's also the nitpicky "straightener" of things. He's got some OCD issues, so I just let him do it.
