Weekend to myself no kids...how long for chores?

[PtolemyTalks]

I’ve just written a list of sorting and tidying (we are trying to sell). ... but am I shortchanging myself...?

Hoe much time doing chores would you do if weekend to your self?

0 seconds!

I would have to devote at least 2hrs-
My favourite show in the background and just crack on.

Whole weekend no kids? With chores that needed to be done?

I’d allocate 2 hours for the essential ones. And leave the rest.

I play the 15 minute game.
Sit down and do bugger all til I feel I can face at least one job/then 15 minutes up and do as much as I can.

Repeat all day. I feel like I've had a restful day but I can get my whole house done.

My 15 minutes sometimes extends if I'm in the zone in a room but the rule is you can sit down or do something you would rather do in between bouts of cleaning/tidying.

About 20 mins.

I can't relax in a messy house so il spend an hour running round then sit on my bum for the rest of the day!

15 minute rule sounds such a good idea!!
This could be the perfect opportunity to get stuff done without kids shouting mum every 5 minutes

I would try and plan to fit everything in in short bursts in the few days beforehand so I didn't have to do any!

If you've got bigger jobs to do, I'd do one each - get up by 8 at the latest, coffee, w hours cracking on, then brunch and do what I wanted for the rest of the day.

2 hours and 1 job each day!

Absolutely no time. I have always done it in the days or night before so I can relax and do what I want to.

Depends. If you’ve got a lot that needs doing, then one hour on one hour off works for me.

Who is this 'we'?
How many chores have to be done?

Depends on how much needs doing really.

We’ve got lots of decluttering to do, which is difficult to get on with when kids are underfoot (especially as youngest DC is a toddler), so I’d probably spend a good few hours on decluttering and tip / charity shop runs.

As much as I could before I got sick of it. It's a good chance to get stuff done without interruption or complaint!

It depends if a kid free weekend is a real rarity or if you will have another one within a reasonable time. I'd probably devote an hour a day and work as quickly as possible (jobs that make the biggest difference first).

Enjoy the peace!

I often do bugger all chores....until the hour before when I run around the house doing jobs.

When my kids go to their dads I try and do a couple of hours of chores and then rest of time relaxing.
