    Now that I neglected my house for the past week enjoying the iNSD party, it's time to get back to reality and face the mess it's become.

    Post a gif of what spring cleaning looks like in your house.

    Well, I used to be like this:

    But now it's more like this:

    Jay ends up doing a lot of the bigger chores/cleaning because of my back pain. I try to keep things neat and tidy, but the big jobs still need to be done. Our house seems to make dust at a near atomic level. LOL

    That's my house too. I wonder if having the ducts cleaned would help. But a lot of the dirt (IMO) comes from having a gravel driveway and people tracking it in.

    Mine won't get done until the first week of summer break, but I'm looking forward to a massive purge and clean!!

    LOL--this has been me all year so far.

    Yesterday I finished my lesson planning for the last few weeks of the school year, so I have next Monday set aside to start catching up on everything I've neglected when school and work kept me too busy.

    My bulldog LOVES our roomba- she's too fluffy to ride on it but she chases it around our entire house! This one has been more this week- lets just close the door & avoid for now! ;)

    Me too, spring cleaning doesn’t exist in this house among other things!

    Nothing like a text from a friend saying "Can I stop by after work?" to get the hoovering frenzy starting!

    I chose this one because with 7 kids I always feel like someone is hanging on me or getting in my way when I want to do the deep cleaning.

    This is totally me. I just ignore the messes a lot of the time because I'm too busy to care... until my sister is coming to visit and then we do the mad rush around to pretend we are neat and tidy people. :giggle My sister is the cleanest/neatest person in the universe, so I always see my messes with a different lens when I know she's coming. Ha ha! Not that she judges us at all, just we feel like we should at least attempt to clean then. ha ha ha!
