Is that list for things to do? That's crazy. You're crazy. This whole post is just plain crazy. If you're insured, you can just set fire to the house and start over again! YAY!

And as noted, I don't complete every one of these tasks every week, so it's not so bad. Yes, putting things back right away is good advice, too. I try hard to do this, but Frank... let's just say it's not in his priorities. Then again, with the two kids, I'm scarcely doing better than him (I often put things back just *close to* where they belong, heh).

Everytime I do housework I think of what you said (maybe last year?): It's such a Sisyphean task. Blah. My biggest tip is putting things back when you're done with them, and a quick 20 minute clean up at the end of the day/ night to return random things to their respective rooms.
