1. How neat are the clothes you wear? Do you iron? Fold them promptly? Pull them out of the dirty laundry?


2. How do you make your bed? Hospital corners? All over the floor? Or somewhere in between?


3. Do you leave dirty dishes in your dishwasher? In the sink? On the counters? In other rooms?


4. Are your floors clean enough to eat off of or is there an old science experiment growing in the corner?


5. How clean is the outside of your car? How about the inside? Is there junk in your trunk?

1. How neat are the clothes you wear? Do you iron? Fold them promptly? Pull them out of the dirty laundry?

Pretty neat, I don't iron unless I absolutely have to, but I get them out of the dryer as soon as they are done to fold and hang. But there are occasions I will pull something out of the dirty laundry if I really need it.

2. How do you make your bed? Hospital corners? All over the floor? Or somewhere in between?

Beds don't get made in my house. DH is in the army and I know he likes the bed made each morning, but if he wants it done, he has to do it himself. Other than that, sheets get washed about every other week and the bed put together.

3. Do you leave dirty dishes in your dishwasher? In the sink? On the counters? In other rooms?

I try to load stuff in the dishwasher as soon as possible, I hate them sitting in the sink and on the counters, but if the dishwasher is full of clean dishes... That's Jordyn's job to empty it, although she hasn't been doing a very good job of it lately. Jordyn and I both tend to leave one glass on the end table all the time.

4. Are your floors clean enough to eat off of or is there an old science experiment growing in the corner? THey aren't very dirty, I try and vacuum the carpets at least once or twice a week. The kitchen floor is pretty clean, I tend to sweep it about every other day. But they definately aren't spic and span clean.

5. How clean is the outside of your car? How about the inside? Is there junk in your trunk?

Outside, never clean unless DH has been driving it. The inside, its slightly cleaner, but I try and clean it out about once a week. there is always stuff in the trunk, I'm hoping when I get a new car around Christmas that I can break that habit though.

My clothes are fairly neat but I rarely iron, I tend to buy clothing that do not need ironing and still look good!

1. How neat are the clothes you wear? Do you iron? Fold them promptly? Pull them out of the dirty laundry? I'm anal about this, I iron T-shirts if I think they look too wrinkly out of the dryer. I don't always get the dryer right when its finished so end up ironing a fair bit. Folded neatly, never pulled out of dirty laundry.


2. How do you make your bed? Hospital corners? All over the floor? Or somewhere in between? Ummm, people make their bed? I make it when I change the bedding, then after that kind of pull the covers up half-way neatly if I think of it. LOL I tend not to move much when I sleep so it doesn't get too messed, however the nights that Kristen decides to share with me its a disaster. That kid is a wild sleeper.


3. Do you leave dirty dishes in your dishwasher? In the sink? On the counters? In other rooms? Yep, then I run around and gather them all up and do them, then start again. LOL Usually its just something on the coffee table or by the computer and of course the counter. I detest dishes, would rather iron, so I am not very vigilant.


4. Are your floors clean enough to eat off of or is there an old science experiment growing in the corner? Ohhh, science experiments combined with hair balls. With 2 cats and a rabbit out house is hair central. I can't seem to keep ahead. The floors aren't disgusting, but I wouldn't be eating off them.


5. How clean is the outside of your car? How about the inside? Is there junk in your trunk? Outside is so-so, in the city it doesn't get that dirty. Inside could use a cleaning. Kristen and I did it all up in about May but its getting crumbs, a few papers and stuff lying around. The trunk is pretty much empty except for a couple of hats and my picnic blanket. Need to put my lawnchairs back in as I usually keep them in there in the summer because you never know when you'll need a lawnchair.

1. How neat are the clothes you wear? Do you iron? Fold them promptly? Pull them out of the dirty laundry? I only iron for special occasions, I'm a t-shirt and denim shorts kind of gal! I wear yoga clothes to work! My laundry ends up on a pile on the couch, then folded on the coffee table, then piled on my dresser and THEN eventually hung up.

2. How do you make your bed? Hospital corners? All over the floor? Or somewhere in between? I have a huge black suede comforter with fancy pillows on my bed. It is usually hanging off the footboard of the bed. When I make it, I just pull up the sheets and old comforter and this big one just covers them all up...voila! Pretty bed!

3. Do you leave dirty dishes in your dishwasher? In the sink? On the counters? In other rooms? Unless the kitchen has just been cleaned, there are usually some dirty ones in the dishwasher and/or sink. Not usually on the counters and IF I find them in other rooms, then there's some big trouble! I clean the kitchen about twice a day but I don't stress about it!

4. Are your floors clean enough to eat off of or is there an old science experiment growing in the corner? Um...somewhere in between? I have two small dogs (who luckily don't shed) and we take our shoes off in the house so it's not too bad. The tile gets vaccummed every day (HAHA I WISH!).....

5. How clean is the outside of your car? How about the inside? Is there junk in your trunk? Our cars are SPOTLESS...inside and out. My hubby is a big OCD about them and I let him have his fun!

Clothing is folded promptly and or hung right away. I have very few items that actually need ironing.

2. How do you make your bed? Hospital corners? All over the floor? Or somewhere in between?

Hospital corners.

3. Do you leave dirty dishes in your dishwasher? In the sink? On the counters? In other rooms?

Nope. I wash them right away. I don't own a dishwasher and food is not allowed in any other rooms in the house aside from the kitchen.

4. Are your floors clean enough to eat off of or is there an old science experiment growing in the corner?

Clean enough to eat off of? maybe not but vaccumm my hardwood daily and I wash the kitchen and porch floors every three days with a hot water/bleach solution.

5. How clean is the outside of your car? How about the inside? Is there junk in your trunk?

Outside fairly clean. Inside needs to be vaccuumed (three teen football players in my van every day does a number) and there is nothing in the "trunk".
