Is your home clean ??Do you always try to keep your house clean?? How often? Clean the whole house,or bathrooms, kitchens,bedroom only?? 'I am a clean person and I hope my home to be neat and tidy. I visited one of my friend one week ago, he is living alone, it seems that guys do not really care about the cleanliess of the house, his bedroom is so messy with clothes and underwears scattered on his bed,the desks are full of old newspapers. The bathroom was no better, the sink was full of stain and the toilet seat was horrible, the kitchen was even worse, he did not even wash the plates after having meal, at least 10 plates were stacked up in the sink, the rubbish bags are full and stink..... I nearly suffocate when i was there,,i wonder how he can be there everyday....''

my house gets messy sometimes because I am always sick, I do clean on the days I feel better though. I wish I was a neat freak all my family are very neat and tidy and then there is me. I am the oddball.

ME too hate intidy places, untidy people and untidy situations .. i would say Lazy people can come up with a variety of reasons for not being able to keep their surroundings clean but if they really gave it thought ..instead of fetching for reasons if they put the same effort in a little bit of tidying up they would be living in a much better environment which would be healthy for them only .. cleaning your own house is no shame .. staying single or with family one must learn to clean the mess he makes .. You only show your lousy self to others when you stay in such a unclean house .. I will do one work less but cleanliness tops my list of chores .. it keeps piling if I procastinate it for later .. first things first are best ..

well i try and keep it clean.. clutter is a problem for me. my house is a very "lived in" cozy home. i do not like it when people come over and feel they cannot sit in a room and not be comfortable. but as far as clean.. my bathrooms and kitchen are usually in good shape. everything else is just a happy time when i can do more than that!!

I love having a clean house.. I grew up in one.. so now i cant stand a dirty bathroom... I clean my bathroom every week.. as well as my room and the house in general... I am also allergic to dust.. so when i say clean.. I really mean it clean... I live with 3 guys... 2 of them are pretty clean... they help with the trash.. and the dirty dishes... but the other one.. the third one is a pig.... goodd thing he doesnt really cooks.. otherwise it would be a mess... But yes.. guys are ussually messy.. although you'll be surprise of some of the girls rooms in colleges.. some girls are messier than the guys

I also love to have my house clean, esspecially at the kitchen area. Here's are some tips how to get it done : 1. Don't use rag's, wipe down your counter with paper towel because when you use rag, it can cause a cross contamination. 2. Wash away any liquid residue in the trash bin before replacing with new bin liner. 3. Throw away any expiring item in your fridge. 4. Wipe down your sink with germicide and remove debris from the sink. That are some simple do it yourself tips. For more tips please visit www.maintenanceonline.blogspot.com Thankx.

I would say that our home is clean and tidy as I do not like mess, but it is not over the top with being spotless as I find it too hard to live that way! But it breaks my heart when I visit my sons unit and he is a bachelor and the place is quite messy! I have in the past tidied up while I have visited but have finally stopped doing this! He does not seem to see the mess or think of it as a concern, but his personal hygeine is good so cannot complain about that! Just need to walk in and make them short visits! lol

I know I dont understand people like that. Im always cleaning my house. I clean my whole house once a week. I think we learn it from our parents. My mom was always cleaning. I also think men are very lazy when it comes to household chores.

I keep my home clean. I do give some time daily but much time on Sunday for housekeeping. If it is not upto the mark, it irritates me. Books, papers, magazines, clothes, drawing room etc must be tidy so that if someone comes to our house, they do not make comment. It also gives us good feeling when everything is in its place.

My whole house gets cleaned everyday, from the bathrooms right through to the living room, dusted and vacuumed. Windows get washed every 2 weeks. Curtains get washed every three months, and the heavy drapes get dry cleaned every 6 months

My house is always clean..as in hygenic but sometimes it gets untidy. I tend to dump junk on the kitchen table.. like magazines, books, mail etc. I have a germ phobia so the dishes are always done and the toilet and floors get disinfected at least once a week. i too grew up in a very clean house so I can't stand living in filth.

I always make a point that my crib is clean especially now that I have an infant at home. What I do is that, I have my house cleaned every day. Every corner of it... Our rooms, kitchen, wash room, living room, dining area, garden and the laundry room. I hate certain stinky smells, so I spray sanitizers with scents, after cleaning. I can't imagine living in a house full of mess. It irritates me.

If you do not have time to tidy up, try not to make your home messy.For example, you can wash the dishes just after you finished meal but not stacking them up in the sink.
