Housework

My upstairs is only used for storage. I vacuum up there twice a year and wipe down anything that needs it. Downstairs, I start at the front of my house and clean one room a day. Vacuum, dust, polish & mop if needed. So the whole downstairs gets cleaned in about a week and a half. I skip the day I go out for groceries. With just me here, things get a little dusty, but that's about it. And, I wash dishes as I use them. Hate to see dirty dishes in the sink (I cheat a little with some paper plates). ;)
 

Who wants your obituary to read....."She was a wonderful housekeeper"?View attachment 115209

This reminds me of something that a friend told me when she came over and caught me mopping the kitchen while I was suffering from pneumonia.
Jan said to me, "Ceege, people will say one of two things about you. They will see a messy house and say that they are sure you will get caught up with your chores as soon as you get well. Or, they will say, 'Well, Ceege is dead. But boy is her house clean'.
