Why meeee?

ggulity here aswell, when 5pm rolls round i start cleaning and tidying up before Dh is home @ 6.30 lol

but today no kids sooo lol

[sloane]

i usually start doing dishes but everything else is still a mess. i am the WORST cleaner/tidier ever...but i am strangely unrepentant!

[Heaven]

Guilty! But it totally makes sense this way. If I tidy any earlier it is trashed again before DH gets home! That's my reasoning anyway. Although I may have done the same thing pre-kids, LOL.

So I do the washing etc during the day and the dishes but the big toy and floor clean up is right before DH walks in the door. He must think I'm totally awesome, lol.

[Heaven]

QUICK!! Clean up time everyone

[Beach Mama]

Heaven ........thank goodness I did mine early! DH was home at 2 today!!!

[OceanPrincess]

Well I've been sick for two days and
DH has been home helping with the kids so he has seen first hand how the chaos ensues!!!

House is a disgrace!

[Enchanted]

I'm late, I'm late... for a very important date Wel maybe, time not date!

Just realised how late it is.... best I get busy and start throwing stuff in cupboards and pray he doesn't open them

[Tinks]

I think the question should be 'who doesn't do the mad cleaning dash before DH gets home?'

[Enchanted]

Yes, it's seeming that way! I didnt realize I had so many unorganized fellow BBers

The basket trick is the best - Enchanted knows this one Walk around the house with a basket/box and put everything on the floor and on surfaces that isn't meant to be there in the basket. Then put the basket away in the laundry until you have time to clear it. Perfecto.

I often do 2 runs - one for clothes and one for other crap - works a treat!

I often do this, but then finding the time to empty the basket...hmmm, it might take a while

Like many have said, there's no point doing it till later in the day - it just gets messy again. With DH not getting home till at least 7, if I leave the mess till the kids bedtime, it doen't get messy again before DH gets home. My mother, on the other hand, might rock up at 2.30 for a cup of tea, and silently shake her head at the mess ( i unfortunately did not inherit much domestic goddessness from her )

I do it too. Might invest in some more baskets though.
