Really?  I am quite house proud. Why buy a house and pay mortgage if you live like the people in "Hoarders"?  I have a neighbor like that, she does not call anyone and her kids do not play with anyone because their house is filthy.

Do not think of it as 2 hours of your life, think of it as 2 man-hours and divvy up the work with your family members.  Maybe if you all work together - it will be just 20-30 minutes of your time.

I have zero problem with you being house proud. I have a problem with you prescribing this as an only way to live.

There is a myriad of possibilities between living like hoarders and washing two sets of clothes per person per day (again, I have to wonder how this becomes necessary.)

We have people and kids over at least once a week. I don't wince when they walk in with their shoes on. I don't get heartburn if the sofa pillows are tossed about. I don't get constipated if an odd coffee cup lingers. Mopping floors, eh, if you can't see the dirt, I'm not mopping. My life is about my family and friends, doing things we enjoy with people we love. Unmopped floors and unmade beds do not interfere with this. Moderate messes do not disturb me.  I choose sleep between cleaning and sleep. Anything major, the cleaners can deal with. [/quote]

Clean, large houses are for people to enjoy - so they do!
