Sometimes it's easy to forget how little time some tasks take, something like emptying the dishwasher seems like a major task but can really be done in less than five minutes.

However, another little tip you might like which was something I read was 'if something takes five minutes don't put it off'. This can be applied to the house. So now when I think I can't be arsed to put on the washing machine I do it. I put the things away on the draining board and I get the packed lunches ready. I must say it's simple but it works.<br />Michelle xmummyratesit.co.ukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05110162919182644135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6423082959141413481.post-59354338649132455022012-03-27T08:46:37.584+01:002012-03-27T08:46:37.584+01:00I hope that it works for you!

The only problem is that the bath itself doesn't get cleaned, and if you do the floor you might end up with sliding children!Jennifer Jainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06135607034769804251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6423082959141413481.post-36101217326230409832012-03-26T19:13:23.756+01:002012-03-26T19:13:23.756+01:00Ooh loving the " clean the bathroom while yo...Ooh loving the " clean the bathroom while your older kids are in the bath." will definitely be implementing that one.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00450555480439826278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6423082959141413481.post-20005308378306927542012-03-26T12:59:13.164+01:002012-03-26T12:59:13.164+01:00Thank you!Thank you!Jennifer Jainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06135607034769804251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6423082959141413481.post-27612554513352324212012-03-26T10:40:44.340+01:002012-03-26T10:40:44.340+01:00Really enjoyed your blog; lots of interesting thin...Really enjoyed your blog; lots of interesting things about housework!!cyathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10868956689435548993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6423082959141413481.post-32602521267215588622012-03-26T10:31:26.420+01:002012-03-26T10:31:26.420+01:00Well, I am very lucky with my wonderful Mum, who i...Well, I am very lucky with my wonderful Mum, who is very good about spotting things that need doing and just getting on with them!<br /><br />You must have got the balance right because I don't remember being neglected for housework, although I do remember helping out with a duster!<br /><br />Personally I get very grumpy if the house is messy and dirty, and I feel a lot better when it's in a reasonable state, so I do try to keep on top of things. Then I can concentrate better on the little ones, without looking past them to see the crumbs on the floor.Jennifer Jainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06135607034769804251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6423082959141413481.post-26169944120401063182012-03-26T08:58:31.367+01:002012-03-26T08:58:31.367+01:00Your post brought back all kind of memories of whi...Your post brought back all kind of memories of which is the most important, household chores or babies? But like you say, you still have to keep up with some tasks or the house can take over.
