[quote=Anonymous]^op here. The dishes take an hour. Several pans, load the dishwasher and wiping everything down. We cook a lot. Sometimes I prep something for the next day. Vacuuming alone is 15 min (and it needs vacuumed for sure! I used to only vacuum weekly) Picking up each room is like 15 min. Laundry, folding. And weekly I do bathrooms which takes time (they could use it more often but no time). There’s a lot I never get to like dusting or mopping or wiping down windows (they’re covered in handprints). I’m really working on not being rigid and praising any effort they make. I don’t want my kids to think they’re not good enough. Just hard I don’t mind cleaning and I listen to books on tape while I go. I’ve never had a cleaning lady or even needed one but this is just excessive mess. [/quote]
