How often do you...

[wife&mommy]

Wash your sheets?

Mop?

Clean the bathroom?

Grocery shop?

Dust?

Wash your favorite pair of jeans?

So... how often do you do these things on average? Feel free to add more things if you want!

[Mama2-4]

Wash your sheets? Weekly or sooner if needed

Mop? Weekly

Clean the bathroom? 3-4 times a week

Grocery shop? as needed a big shop maybe every 2-3 weeks

Dust? every 2-3 days

Wash your favorite pair of jeans? usually after every 2 times I wear them

[Penelope]

Sheets? Weekly.

Mop? Monthly. :

Bathrooms? Couple times a month, I do them top to bottom. A couple times a week, I wipe them down and vaccuum the floors.

Grocery shop? Twice a week.

Dust? Never!

Wash my favorite jeans... a couple of times a week. I'm incapable of wearing them (or any clothing, really) for a day without spilling food or getting dirt or mud or kid snot on myself. So I do a lotta laundry.

I vaccuum daily, do the dishes daily, sweep daily, and clean the kitchen twice a day.

[rosie_plus_one]

Wash your sheets? We have 3 sets for our bed, so I usually try to do the dirty set right when I take it off but sometimes it sits in the hamper for a week.

Mop? Hmmm. Maybe every 10 days? Sometimes more frequently, never less often than that I would say. I sweep pretty frequently though.

Clean the bathroom? I try to do it every Sunday because I love starting the week with a clean bathroom, but sometimes I skip a week. If the toilet starts looking gross sometimes I will just do that and nothing else in there.

Grocery shop? Try to go weekly, sometimes I see how long I can stretch it without going. Unfortunately we go through a lot of WIC milk so some weeks it seems like I am there every 2 or 3 days buying more milk.

Dust? Almost never! We don't have that many surfaces that gather dust though.

Wash your favorite pair of jeans? I'm preggo so I don't have my favorite jeans anymore. I usually try to wear pants twice before I wash them, unless I have a run-in with Jam-Hands.

[Village Mama]

Wash sheets weekly.
Mop once a week.
Bathroom once a week .... wiped up daily.
Grocery shop once a week.
Dust... we dont have baseboards or things like that in the house. Usually surfaces all get wiped down throughout the week as well as vacummed. I dont really dust though. I should because we have sooooo many books.
I wash my jeans once a week or so. After wearing them once or twice! I dont want to wear them out too fast. They are my fancy jeans! ( sadly they are regular second hand not fancy pants! they just actually fit comfortably)

[wildtigercubs]

Sheets: weekly (although I get a bit lazy with my elder daughters somtimes) sometimes more because hubby does night duty and they feel icky after someone has been in them 24 hours a day nearly.

Mop: at least once a week but sometimes twice, I have VERY messy kids and a cat who doesn't like to use her litter box in the laundry so as often as needed in there. In between I have a floor cloth that I clean up spills with.

Clean the bathroom: mine is separate from the toilet. I do the shower stall once a fortnight but I use that daily spray (only mine's an eco friendly one) to keep it clean and wipe down anything that needs wiping in there as needed. I also clean the sink about 4 times a week and sweep every 2nd day or so. The toilet I do once a week but extra if someone has a bug (germ a phobe).

Grocery shop: UGH! I run up to the shop every single day but am planning on stopping that soon. Otherwise once a fortnight but weekly for fruit and veg.

Dust: I clean one room a day (on top of normal cleaning) so I dust when that room is due for it's big clean out otherwise I vac it up when I vac about every 2nd or 3rd day.

Fave jeans: about every 2nd wear although I lost a bit of weigh recently so have been washing them every wear cause they stretch too big too fast.

i don't mop, i either swiffer or get down on the floor w/ a rag and my handy-dandy vinaegar/water spray

i clean the bathroom everytime i go in there. not top to bottom obviously but you know i wipe the sink down after i brush my teeth or i spray the potty seat after i pee, wipe down the shower walls while i shower. just whatever catches my eye.

i go to the grocery store pretty much every day. but i only go grocery shopping maybe 3 times a month. the every day is for coke, beer and produce. (we buy produce as we need it so we waste less)

i dust something everyday. not always a big area though.

i wash my favorite jeans probably once a week.

i wash my sheets seasonally (yuck i know)

[wildtigercubs]

As for the yuck I know, I have a yuck confession. The oven, I LOATHE cleaning the oven so it tends to get left, and left and left and really only done when I can SEE that it is grotty Lol, anyone else have any yucks that they hate to do? Oh I also confess no one should ever look behind my fridge or washing machine. Other than that pretty clean round here.

Underneath the sink in the kitchen! Between the compost bucket and the recycling container for bottles (half of which were NOT rinsed before putting in: ) I think we probably have enough bacteria in there to seriously reconsider giving up traditional bleach

[~Megan~]

I don't have specific times for things. Most of them are done as needed.

Wash your sheets? about once a week but sometimes it can go longer if I'm overwhelmed with other things.

Mop? I hate mopping. So I clean the bits by hand more often! I'm sure it takes longer that way but I hate mopping!

Clean the bathroom? I do it piece by piece but each thing is probably weekly

Grocery shop? one big trip every 2 weeks and then supplements for fresh veggies and milk each week

Dust? monthly maybe, its low on my priorities

Wash your favorite pair of jeans? once a week

[Rico'sAlice]

I am a housekeeping failure, so I'll have to answer for both myself and DH otherwise it will seem like nothing ever gets done.

Wash your sheets? DH does this every week or two. Depends on the dogs getting it dirty.
Mop? Whenever we spill something. Otherwise about 1X per week in the kitchen (DH). Every 6 months in the living room & hallway...
Clean the bathroom? Me: 2x per year major cleaning DH: 1-2X per week, vacuum, clean out sink, etc.
Grocery shop? Between the two of us about 3x per week for fresh veggies, fish, etc. I go to the farm down the road 1-2x per week for milk & eggs. I do a major co-op order for staples 1x per month.
Dust? 1X per month when DH asks me to, or whenever the Queen, Pope or MIL is coming, or whenever we have extra remodel-related dust.
Wash your favorite pair of jeans? Every 3 wearings or so they go into the basket. DH does 9/10 loads of laundry.

Vacuum? DH vacuums the whole house 1x per week. The living room/kitchen gets vacuumed (by DH) pretty much every day due to dog hair. I vacuum every 6 months or so when DH asks me to.

Poor DH
But I do all the cooking!

[wife&mommy]

Wash Sheets: About once a month (I know!)
Mop: Mostly spot mop when it needs it but a big mop before company comes over LOL - I hate mopping!
Clean the bathrooms: Well the one for company I do often like once a week but our bathroom is more like once a month, it doesn't really get dirty though.
Grocery Shop: Every Monday and that's it.
Wash Jeans: Well I take as long as possible before I do laundry because I hate it so I wear them 3 or 4 times probably before washing, unless they get yuck-o.
Vacuum: Every 2 to 3 days.

Yucks: The sheets, I know I should do it more and the mopping. I should do laundry more often too. I also need to clean the dog area probably every day but I don't - her bed gets full of hair quickly, I should wash it probably every week. But we are getting her a new bed today actually. And I'm bad at dusting. Actually I think I'm bad at anything that has to do with cleaning now that I think about it! But my house is pretty clean, I guess we clean as we go so we don't need that many big cleans.

[mightymoo]

Maybe I shouldn't answer. :

Wash your sheets? Ugh, every 3 months?

Mop? Never, but I swiffer maybe once a month

Clean the bathroom? Probably about once every two months

Grocery shop? Every other week

Dust? What is this?

Wash your favorite pair of jeans? Once a week to once every two weeks.

And I've been so proud of myself on how well I'v ebeen doing at housekeeping lately (been able to actually keep the place semi picked up and not let laundry pile up so bad we have no underwear) but clearly I have a long way to go.

[***Heather***]

Wash your sheets?
About every 2 weeks

Mop?
Hmmm. Maybe once a month?

Clean the bathroom?
I clean stuff when it looks dirty, but the big cleaning, about once a month.

Grocery shop?
Once a week (sometimes I skip a week if there's nothing good on sale or if we have plenty of food)

Dust?
Hardly ever. I don't have a lot of knickknacks or shelves that collect dust. The only place I really see dust is on the tv, stereo and other electronics. Then I just clean it when it's noticeable.

Once a week.
