Do you think you're a better or worse housekeeper than your mother?

Much "worse". My mother was OCD about cleaning the house and I think she missed out on a lot of things because her "house wasn't clean enough" or she had to "stay home and clean".
I clean our house about once a week, whereas my mother was constantly picking up, tidying, and cleaning.
I am a much better housekeeper than my mother- she is the pack rat. Dear God, her basement gives me nightmares.
I am a much worse housekeeper than MIL, who spends all day every day perfecting her home. I just don't have time for that crap.
Stand up for something you believe in.
Worse by far. I'm a terrible housekeeper, but I'm working on getting better.
ETA: I am FAR more organized than her though. My house may be a mess, but at least I know where everything is. She can never find anything.

I'm better at housekeeping than my mom. My parents house is always clean but its cozy. There are things everywhere and a throw and a pillow haphazardly thrown on the couches/chairs, some napkins on the table not in a basket, etc. there isnt dust or dirt or anything in my parents house, its just not orderly.
my house everything is clean and put away in its appropriate place.
If I was to compare myself to my mom when I was growing up, definitely worse. She was awesome at keeping me and my dad cleaned up.
Now, with my 3 brothers and my grandmother who also lives with my parents and her working full-time... She's not as good as she used to be. But I think she's still keeps everything relatively in order considering how busy she and my dad are.

worse- my mom always had us clean and honestly I only like doing one task at a time, sweep one day , dust and windex one day, toilets another... she does it all at once.
