what motivates you?



Listening to audiobooks while I do it. Vive la libraire!
Dear Lord, save us from those thy children who speak without thought, and protect them also from the rotten tomatoes they shall thereafter receive in the kisser.
I have the kids watching akarate instructional video lol they are entertained, I'm cleanning, ugh mostly mess from my oldest bday gifts lol
I put on the music channel.That gets me going.





Not a lot! I am lazy in that respect. I must do my own mowing, w/a manual mower. The last bout w/leaky window & all the towel I used has killed it for me also. I cook all the time, laundry, so it falls by the wayside. + my mom is almost always here so it's hard to 'clean around her' One thing: I noticed when moon is in Virgo (coming up Mon.) it makes it easier for me to organize. Maybe some loud, fast music?

WEll the livingroom is now clean, as clean as with 2 kids will be and the bathroom has the cleaner on it, a load is already in the dryer but the kitchen, ugh I hate cleaning the kitchen! HATE IT! I can't for some reason ever have my kitchen table clean from clutter!
I hope my husband gets up soon cause the kids are done wit hthe vid and they don't let me clean.





Yep! Hate my kitchen cleaning chore too. Altho, I am proud I recently scoured my fridge, threw out all the ancient bottles of sauce, etc (but rinsed 'em out for recycling) HHL, do you ever look at the shopping chanel for cleaning products? Just a thought, they have some cool stuff. But, I know I still need the ass kick to use them!

i try using natural stuff like vinegar, baking soda and other things.





I use natural stuff too ! So much better for the lungs !
I have a question, why aren't the kids helping you clean ??
Put their little tails to work too, then reward them with breakfast out or an ice cream cone ! Works for me ALL the time !
My new love...is me !

See a dirty part of the living room floor, or elsewhere, and look at it really closely. See the dustmites point and laugh at you.![]()
The only thing that motivates me is forcing myself to remember how much happier I feel when I'm in a fresh, sparkling clean house!
I actually try to clean MORE often because then I don't have to do as much to make the place clean. If I see clutter, I go around and pick everything up every couple days (I realize that with kids, clutter is a given). I use those Lysol wipes to wipe the counters every few days, the Swiffer when I notice the kitchen floor is dirty, and my dustbuster when I see that there's litter accumulating outside the litterbox. Then once a week, I do the same routine:
1. Dust
2. Lysol counters
3. Swiff floor
4. Vacuum
5. Mop floor (wet Swiffer)
It only takes an hour (less, if I need to be super-speedy about it) and then everything's nice and clean for the week.
Oh one just trued 5 and hte other is not 2 yet, so they are small, they help put the books and toys away but I have to do the rest. I put the 90's music channel lol aww memories lol But hte bathroom is clean, 2 more loads done, dishes done, table done.
I still have to sweep and mop, blech!
I'm getting motivated because I'm having a boy come over later for sex! And I want a clean house.![]()

How old are your kids? If they are old enough have them do something fun like dusting or vacuuming. That way they aren't bored and they are helping.




I turn on country music,and start cleaning. Once i start one room,i get into a cleaning kick and before long my whole house is cleaned.
