I'm not lazy, but I have decided that's not what I want to put my energy into. I spend a lot of time with my toddler. I make many of our meals fresh daily, breakfast, lunch, dinner and his 3 snacks. I exercise and I make time to sleep at least 7 hours a day. What is messy? It's relative. When I watch Hoarders, I feel very neat, but if I go to my friend's homes where everything is dusted and mopped daily and everything is in their place I feel like a failure and like people must be grossed out by my house. How is your house?

My house is very clean. It really doesn't take much time to keep it clean. I work full time and spend plenty of quality time with my kids. I think I can spare 20 minutes a day to pick up. My kids have chores too.

I'm a FT working mom, so my house is messy 99% of the time. I feel like poop when I go to a friend's house and the apologize for the "mess" when there's only like one dirty dish in the sink. Oh well. Working 40+ hours doesn't give me much time to clean and hang out with the kids. That's my excuse.

Do you ever get hit on even looking a mess?
Why inflict this silly cosmetic pain on a baby!?!
