It's been weeks since I changed the beddings and curtains in my daughters' room. I didn't have a lot of time and energy to do this when my eldest was sick, because I was often up in the wee hours of the night checking on her and...

J.N.R Dutton @jnrdutton (3447) • United States 25 Sep 24

Good afternoon everyone, Courtney and I were busy for most of the day. She had an appointment, we also went to get breakfast and went to the store. I will say I am quite worn out, and just relaxing currently while I write this....

It's time to wash the curtains.

Macy @almostoveryou (4954) • Philippines 21 Aug 24

When I don't have the energy to do physically demanding chores, I do the laundry. It's something that I enjoy - from loading the clothes into the washer to hanging them on the rack and then folding them when they're dry. I'm...

It's 4:15 p.m. as I write this, and I just made a nice hot pot of champorado (chocolate flavored rice porridge) for my girls. I thought they might want something to eat at this time because they had only brunch (Spam and...

I forgot about the rubber gloves...

Macy @almostoveryou (4954) • Philippines 27 Aug 23

Husband and I went out for errands and shopping yesterday. I did make a list of things to do and to buy but somehow forgot to write down the rubber gloves that I so desperately need when washing and cleaning. I've got two pairs of...

Macy @almostoveryou (4954) • Philippines 19 Jul 23

Another day is done. It feels like I'm just starting the week with actual work. Alfie and son have gone back to their home in Manila. I wanted to take a break from cooking for everyone so I just ordered a Wendy's Fambox (burgers,...

Back in bed with my morning tea

Macy @almostoveryou (4954) • Philippines 12 Jul 23

Good morning, all. I got up at 4:30 a.m. today to prep my husband's packed meal and to tackle last night's dirty dishes in the sink. Hubby left for work at 5:40 a.m. (a little later than usual) and ended up having to endure the...

In a vacuuming frenzy lately

Macy @almostoveryou (4954) • Philippines 10 Jul 23

We're so used to just using the good ol' broom here for sweeping and dusting that I had totally forgotten an out-of-this world invention called ze "vacuum cleaner". I so enjoy sweeping our floors despite the daily...

Writing on my weekly planner

Macy @almostoveryou (4954) • Philippines 7 Jun 23

When I had covid back in May, I did not bother to log any tasks in my planner for 2 weeks. I only took note of the days when my eldest daughter would have to take her final exams and when my second daughter would have her Math...

celticeagle @celticeagle (189789) • Boise, Idaho 10 Jun 22

We have been having housekeeping inspections over the last couple of months. At first, I was upset and put out with them but, now I am thinking differently. I am thinking that they are really trying to help us to have good...

Just Had a Feeling

celticeagle @celticeagle (189789) • Boise, Idaho 9 May 22

I thought so. As soon as I said something she came. The lady for the inspection. She says everything looks good and we are GOOD FOR ANOTHER MONTH. Didn't even go upstairs. Can you believe it? I hope she met because of the big one...

I Hate Waiting

celticeagle @celticeagle (189789) • Boise, Idaho 9 May 22

I have never been one that was good at waiting. I always use my time effectively and always try to be five minutes or so early for all my appointments. Why? Because I would like to be treated this way if someone were coming to see...

Housekeeping Inspection Time

celticeagle @celticeagle (189789) • Boise, Idaho 5 Jan 22

Today is the day that we always dread each year. Haven't had one for a couple of years. It is rather scary for us because if they find things wrong sure we can correct them but, if it comes to them kicking us out for some...

I Need to Take My Own Advice

patgalca @patgalca (18481) • Orangeville, Ontario 27 Dec 21

I don't know whether everybody does this. When my daughter (25) got underwear for Christmas she asked me if they should be washed first. I told her yes. Clothes and bedding should be washed as you don't know what chemicals are in...

I will have to buy some soap!

Fleur @Fleura (34927) • United Kingdom 5 Oct 21

This may not sound particularly startling - but I haven’t had to buy any soap for more than ten years! My mother died in 2011, and left a lot of stuff. One was a stockpile of cleaning products - she liked to make sure she had...

aubrey @averygirl72 (38847) • Philippines 19 Aug 21

I love Friday because we hire a house helper once a week half day only. It's the day in the week when I don't have to wash the dishes. She wash the dishes, mop the floor upstairs, wash the rugs, clean the bathroom. Today I just...

Macy @almostoveryou (4954) • Philippines 29 Apr 20

For some years now, my usual 4 o'clock habit would be to sweep the floors and clean the house. This is a habit suggested by our government to avoid the proliferation of mosquitoes as dengue is very common in our country. When I'm...
