I'm not a big fan of housecleaning either....my second oldest son knew that was his way of getting out of being grounded

at least you're not kvetching about political things but its' still about seven paragraphs too long for my liking. i much prefer your short jokes even if they have gotten stale.

Loved reading this.  I must admit that in my early married life I loved Good Housekeeping Magazine.  I still choose that magazine from the magazine rack in the doctor's office while waiting for my appointments.  My idea of a well-kept house is:  no clutter, no hoarding, and no crongels on the floor because they feel yucky on bare feet.  I do not like going into Son's space because his clutter in there bothers me a lot.  I would clean it for him but he won't let me.  He is afraid I would move something or throw something away.  He does make his bed half-way decently.

My great friend Steve Redder once told me how it did not make sense to him that people make their beds.

I never liked housework, not ever. It is just one of those things that have to be attended to and Wiley and the twice a month house keeper do most of it. gardening and animals, children ...those things are the joy that makes up for much.

I loved this post. I think it is great you keep things tidy while the MLW or some such is away. I love a clean house but I don't like cleaning it one whit.

Well Naut I make my bed every day. Not to Army stipulations but just so I can fall into it at night. I must say I am easy going and would not mind someone else making it.
