To think it is easy to keep your home clean?

[Ohwell14]

Providing you are able bodied obviously

YABU. Working 5 days a week and tidying up around a 3 year old is like pissing into the wind.

Haha

I could keep my home spotless. But frankly I've got other shit to do that's way more fun, so I'll happily settle for a 'fuck It, that'll do' approach

What ever helps make you feel superior, OP. 🙄

What's your routine oh well ?

No it's not it's an endless fucking battle (1&3 year olds and a hairy dog)

I love that description Blondie.
I don't have a 3 year old but I have 3 older kids and it's a nightmare. Depends on your priorities I suppose, but as a single parent who works full time, I have to accept that things slide.

Depends how many children you have, how many hours you work, whether you're a single parent or in a dual parent family. YABU its not easy when ur a single mum of 4 kids and work 4 days a week.

like pissing into the wind
If you try that, you're going to have a really messy house. 😆

Why do you care? Are you judging anyone who doesn't?

It might be easy for you to keep your house clean. You’d have to feel pretty lacking in imagination to think that everyone is in the same circumstances as you.

I'm able bodied.
I don't have kids.
I'm pretty relaxed about the state of my plughole, thanks.

I'd say tedious rather than easy.

Some days it's easy, some days it's not. Much like the rest of life.

Yabu. And I call reverse.

I can't keep mine clean because the dc's make more mess than I can clear up and I have to close the door on a bomb site every morning. It was tidy during my last maternity leave 8 years ago though. I was looking at the photos yesterday .

Well yes, I mean anything's easy if all you have to do is wang on about it on an internet forum to a bunch of strangers who have no idea what your lifestyle is, what your house looks like and how high/low your standards are...

tedious is indeed the word whiterose!

Has someone said it's not easy?

And also depending on how many free hours you have in a day. Also depending on how many children there are living in the house who undo all your efforts to keep things clean and tidy like my DC

IN FACT my DC just emptied a pack of crisps on the kitchen floor whilst writing this post.

Have a OP. Please be honoured, it's my first.

Too many variables to answer such a basic statement ... It also depends what you call clean

Haha!

I have fiancé that plays warhammer, little figures and paint pots every where. And a son who believes that cleanliness is for wimps!

I feel like I'm trying to brush my teeth while eating an Oreo.

Yes, tedious. Cleaning is boring. And I've never once thought 'Ooh, you know what I'd like on my headstone - 'She kept a lovely house' '

Bollocks to that.

7 of us here, with two dogs and other beasts. I work and study as well. So no, we don't find it particularly easy. My house is always kept to a certain standard, dishes done as soon as they are finished with, kitchen and bathroom always decent.

It's lived in and at the moment with it being half term it's a bit of a mess and I have no shits to give. I could have a lovely tidy and spotlessly clean home if I didn't prefer doing other fun things in my spare time.

Absolutely, Sir Goad of Grand Goadia.

I don't find it easy at all. I have a toddler and am very pregnant and knackered and work. A fairly low but acceptable to me standard is good enough round here.
