Having a dishwasher has been my time saver!! I often have guilt because some days no cleaning gets done and DH has been at work for 12 hours.....does he think I do nothing??? He never says anything but I do have the guilt because before kids my days off work were used to clean up!
I just thought one day a while ago "you know what the washing can wait, the vacuming can be done tomorrow" and I just played all day with the kids and you could see the glee in their eyes!!!! It was priceless...so now I have a designated cleaning day and it is usually while the kids are having an afternoon sleep which I get nearly 2 hours to do!!!
