    The motivation for me is that once its done i feel better in myself
    so i always try to get it down early in the morning so i feel better and its a good start to the day if that makes sense..having a clean place in where i am just makes me feel better..untill its messed up again lol

    Well, i have found a new incentive to get me to do the housework which has taken me rather by surprise...

    my DH going overseas!!

    so weird! since he left Thursday I have been going NUTSO! like as in scrubbing the cornices and waxing the wooden furniture...

    but my usual reasons are that i like to wake up to a tidy house. so do a quick putting away of things once the kidlet is in bed. and on the weekends i like to get in nice and early with the housework so that i have the rest of the weekend to enjoy cleanliness and shiny floors.

    I go in cycles... I'll spend a few weeks clenaing like a mad woman, then get all lazy. Going through a lazy patch atm, so the house is filthy.

    If it's clean, I like to clean more so i can keep it clean. if it's dirty, it mfeels like too much effort and I don't know where to start

    looking at display homes .... we have quite a few villages around us and we will skip in and have a drool sometimes and the minute I get home I am madly cleaning up my house, not that it will look as stunning as some of those gorgeous homes LOL...

    Three things motivate me to do housework. Visitors, procrastination (when I was studying I'd scrub the shower with a toothbrush before I could do my assignments) and no clean undies

    I like to play loud heavy metal music to get me in the mood. This morning Judas Priest gave me a helping hand

    Visitors!!!!!!!!!!

    Plus, I do love having the house clean & tidy, though it's rarely the case that I can sit down and think, "ahhhhhhhh, it's all done"
