[quote=Anonymous]I really don't care if my friends houses aren't spotless, it makes me feel better about the things that are neglected at our house.  We wash dishes every night and sweep the kitchen and dining room, and then on weekends get the kids involved in a bigger clean (dusting, vacuuming, cleaning the bathroom, changing sheets, mopping etc).  We don't have a cleaning person, I joke that's why I had kids, (they are old enough to clean up after themselves now!). I live in a small house, and keep our "stuff" to a minimum, because more junk makes it look smaller.

BUT.  If we are having a party, I go bananas with the cleaning and de-cluttering.  Baseboards, ceiling fans, etc, etc.  If someone is having a party (not just a playdate or casual dropping by), it really irks me when they don't clean/declutter.  We have two acquaintances who have every tabletop and counter covered with stuff that has been there for ages, toys knee deep on the floor living room and/or playroom.  And then a house full of people trying to socialize.  Ugh.  I have no idea if the house is clean, because I can't see it past all the junk![/quote]
