Default Re: Housekeeping

i have the workload divided between myself and my two younger sisters. One of them is responsible for the clothes (seperating whites, putting them in the wash and the dryer and THEN sorting them out), the other will vacuum, close the blinds in the house at night , and make sure everything is neat and tidy. They take it in turns to alternate between the two sets of tasks. My responsibility is to cook good food for them (and sometimes I will help them clear up the kitchen...) But I also always take over from where they left off, as in, clean the bathroom, finish the ironing, vacuum the spare bedroom (because i know they won't have done it) etc, etc.

Ohh and they never do anything right, so if I asked to clean the kitchen, it'll be hastily wiping down units and the table and running back upstairs, so I will go back and user Mr. Muscle and re-do it all and then mop the kitchen floor and not allow anyone to step into it until i'm sure it's sparkling and clean.
