  • How Often Do You...

    Mama Foxby Mama Fox

    clean Just a bit of fun.

    How often do you:

    1. Make your bed.
    2. Dust.
    3. Scrub toilets.
    4. Wash windows.
    5. Sweep your kitchen.
    6. Mop your kitchen.
    7. Vacuum.
    8. Clean out your fridge.
    9. Change the filters for your A/C/Heater.
    10. Wash finger print grime off light switches and walls.

    Okay I'll go. 

    1. Every morning. It makes me feel great to have it all made up nice.
    2. When I think about it, usually every few weeks.
    3. Once a week. Quick wipe downs  from time to time because of my little one learning to aim....
    4. Never. Haha!  Very rarely. They don't really get dirty except our back door because of our dog. It's pointless to clean that one.
    5. Every other day.
    6. Twice a week.
    7. Every other day and as needed.
    8. Once a month.
    9. Every other month.
    10. Every couple of weeks.

    I'm answering this based on BEFORE I tried to go into labor and the doctors put me on bed rest...


    Make your bed: every day
    Dust: once a week
    Scrub toilets: once a week 
    Wash windows. Just once when we first moved in
    Sweep your kitchen: EVERY DAY
    Mop your kitchen: EVERY DAY
    Vacuum: EVERY DAY
    Clean out your fridge: Once a week I go through and geet rid of anything we didn't eat (which is VERY rare) and about every 3 months I WASH the fridge out from top to bottom
    Change the filters for your A/C/Heater: I imagine management does that, but it's in a locked closet in the hall, so i don't know! 
    Wash finger print grime off light switches and walls. as needed, which is maybe every 6 months (my daughter is only 12 months old...)

  • xl3abygirl4u05x@xanga

    Make your bed. -


    never. i don't see the point in doing it. and when company comes, i kinda throw stuff up there in a neat way, but they don't go to the bedroom anyways, so i dont see the point there either lol.


    Dust. 


    well, i don't use a duster, but i wipe down dust, etc. once a week.


    Scrub toilets.


    once a week.


    Wash windows.


    rarely. we are on the bottom floor of the apt building and i don't like having the windows opened, so they are usually covered by curtains, blinds, etc.


    Sweep your kitchen.


    at least twice a day.


    Mop your kitchen.


    at least twice a week.


    Vacuum.


    several times a day.


    Clean out your fridge.


    once a week.


    Change the filters for your A/C/Heater.


    the apartment maintenace people do that. they said every 3 months. we've been here 2 months and they've already changed it once.


    Wash finger print grime off light switches and walls


    2 times a week, or more.

  • LisiliLostRedemption@xanga

    1. make your bed - Only when I feel like being real tidy. it's normally once or twice a week. other than that, i just close the door. ;)
    2. dust - since i have several allergies, i never do it. my boyfriend does. every week or so.
    3. scrub toilets. - i try to get to it every week. but since we're only 2 persons, it's not necessary that often.
    4. wash windows - haven't done it since we moved in, so i'd say, twice a year at max...
    5. sweep kitchen - every time i vacuum and everytime something drops. not really at a certains time, but every time its necessary.
    6. mop kitchen - i clean it thoroughly every month or so.
    7. vacuum - once a week.
    8. clean fridge - every time i come back from a longer time away. when im gone more than 2 days, i turn it off and clean it when i come home. that happens every 2 months or so.
    9. a/c / heater filters - don't have any.(germany)
    10. light switches and walls - haven't done it yet, and we moved in 7 months ago. i guess id do it more often if id have to, but we're only 2 adults, so we don't usually run around with dirty fingers. when i have kids though, i guess ill do it every 2 weeks at minimum as soon as they can reach. :)

  • jediwa72@xanga

    1. Make your bed. Once a week, when I wash the sheets
    2. Dust. Daily, I'm allergic to dust and can't stand the look of it.
    3. Scrub toilets. Daily, I don't really know why but I'm obsessed with a shiny potty.
    4. Wash windows. Ha.  That's funny.    Once or twice a year I go out on the patio and spray them down, does that count?
    5. Sweep your kitchen. Daily.
    6. Mop your kitchen. Daily, we spend a lot of time in there and I don't like a sticky floor.
    7. Vacuum. I don't have carpet but sweeping applies...and every other day probably.
    8. Clean out your fridge. Weekly
    9. Change the filters for your A/C/Heater. Every 3 months or earlier if I notice it's getting dusty fast in the house.
    10. Wash finger print grime off light switches and walls. As soon as I see it on the light switches...I don't like grime on doors either.


    Cute post btw.

  • shillyshara@xanga
    1. Make your bed. Umm... never! haha I'm the only one who sleeps in it or even sees it, so what's the point?
    2. Dust. Once every 3 or 4 months, maybe.
    3. Scrub toilets. I try to do this weekly, but sometimes it just doesn't happen. It's never more than 2 weeks.
    4. Wash windows. LOL!!!
    5. Sweep your kitchen. Swiffer every other week (it's a small apartment kitchen).
    6. Mop your kitchen. See #5.
    7. Vacuum. Once or twice a month.
    8. Clean out your fridge. When things get moldy. Unless it's old milk, in which case I leave it in there until I move again, haha.
    9. Change the filters for your A/C/Heater. Isn't apartment management supposed to do that???
    10. Wash finger print grime off light switches and walls. I'm the only one in my apartment, and I'm clean, therefore there are no grimy fingerprints anywhere.

    Can you tell I'm single?

    I never make my bed.  What's the point?  I'm just gonna get back into it later.  It makes for a kind of funny contrast between my messy half of the room and my roommate's pristine half.
