    Depends on my day. I prefer clean, but with 4 kids constantly spilling drinks & dropping crumbs, sometimes its not that easy Easy enough to vacuum & sweep every day, but mopping is a PITA & I try to only do it once a week. I usually spray & wipe between unless I really have to mop.

    I hate my bench being a mess, but a clean bench doesn't always mean my washing up is done. Though I know so many people who'll rinse & stack their dishes neatly to wash later... I don't get the point? If I'm running the water I may as well wash up

    This is really hard as I would say I could be either, depending on the day, but if I had to choose one I'd say clean. I realised this recently when I went to visit my Mum and although the house was tidy, I could see multiple cobwebs (even behind the kettle and in some shoes near the door!) and heaps of crumb and stuff under the couch (no, I wasn't inspecting the place, but I was down there with DD). It made me feel like I was sitting in grub.

    Tidy for me. DH does clean So I do the little piles of clutter as it drives me bonkers. He vacuums and mops the floor as it drives him bonkers. We're a good team
