I was entertained (if also a little freaked out by the inspiration for this article) by this:

Keeping the children alive (I'm not so successful with the houseplants) is about my level, and wiping lightbulbs is an occurrence I can't quite picture. Pretty much everything on the good housekeeping list wouldn't ever make my to do list and i'm more than sufficiently occupied with trying to merely clothe and feed my offspring. A couple of weeks ago I tried to deep clean the washing machine, which counterproductively has stunk ever since. So yesterday I took it apart, ridding it of yet more gunk. Yet the washes since have been worse than ever and needed redoing. So the question 'why did I bother' reverberates around my not very rested brain.
I did manage a hasty house clean yesterday, and for lent I'm trying to give away one item each day so that has potential to reduce clutter. I'm going to go and read in the bath now... if I finish my book that can be today's item I'm then done with :-)
