same with me- If I used my Oven- then it would need to be cleaned- she cleans the microwave every week- along with everything else- or she must have a rotation-

I straighten up- I don't vacumn, mop, dust or take out a cleaning product unless a HUGE mess has been made
she comes every week- when she used to come every 2 weeks I did
I feel bad but if ( Strong if) I cook something- I will leave the pot for her to clean
I clean out the fridge every time I go food shopping- but she cleans it with cleaner every few weeks
now I feel bad- but everyone has to make a living

Re: Household - Cleaning - Question
We use a cleaning serive once a month (we have a small apartment), but I do clean the counters/stove after cooking, and give the bathroom a scrub if it gets too yucky from DH.
I mostly straighten up.

Re: Household - Cleaning - Question
I do additional cleaning if I need to. If we have had company then I usually clean very well afterwards. I clean the countertops and the sink...keep things clean I would say. Then she comes and really give a good scrubbing.
It keeps me sane and DH and I never argue about cleaning. Our weekends are free for us to do as we please. It is the best $60 I spend each week.

Re: Household - Cleaning - Question
I have a cleaning lady that comes weekly too that does most of the things. For the same reasons like the poster above, it keeps me sane and keeps my weekends free. But I clean during the week also - mainly the bathroom and kitchen and straightening up.
I was just wondering if I was weird because I clean my toilet like 2-3 times a week? And scrub my stove each night. LOL

Re: Household - Cleaning - Question
I honeslty don't do any of these on a schedule, except DH cleans the kitchen coutners after dinner, b/c we make a mess cookiing & we put the dishes in the dishwasher, but things like dusting I do when I noticed it our when someone is comingover.
I used to be much better about it . . .
