[quote=Anonymous]After the Federal furlough, we did a hard hard look at our finances and decided it was time to cut out the cleaners. Our oldest is 8 and middle child is 5, and we decided that they were old enough to begin doing daily and weekly cleaning chores. It's been a pain at times, since they needed lots of guidance initially, but they've gotten the hang of it and are doing a decent job. DH kicks in, too, which is also a big help. I just need to get into a more regular routine so that I'm not in a completely foul mood every Saturday morning when I'm spending 2 hours upstairs dusting, vacuuming, changing the sheets, etc., not to mention the other two floors that need work. If I can get everyone into a better and more predictable routine, that should help. Good luck, obviously you're not alone!![/quote]
