The Reluctant Cleaner

The Reluctant Cleaner

Posted On September 10, 2012

I just wanted to set the record straight. With all these Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Blog posts and photos about The Organised Housewife’s 20 Day Challenge, there is something I wanted to tell you.  

Cleaning does not come naturally to me.  I struggle.  I try ever so hard, but in truth their are a million things I would rather be doing.  For me to get up and start cleaning or organising all the stars must align…..

  • I HAVE to have music on.  This makes it more enjoyable and helps me work faster
  • Speed.  Not the drug kind but the “I could make this chore into a workout kind”
  • I am easily distracted and will instagram, tweet, facebook at the same time!
  • I have to have all my hair up and housework attire on (think tracksuit and singlet)
  • I have to be alone or at least with child labour.  If my husband is anywhere near me it will not happen.  He is the King of Clean and I like to do things my way!
  • I set myself challenges.   Giving myself time limits or goals.
  • I work best under pressure.  I can clean more of the house in the 30 mins before visitors arrive than in the whole week prior!
So how about you?  Are you a neat freak?  A procrastinator? Maybe even a hoarder?
