i was thinking about the same thing Afro..
i have 3 kids with 2 at home all the time..so i need to be walking around with a broom and duster at all times.
my routine...morning chaos: breakfast and school run,
sort out bedrooms
then a quick clean up of the kitchen, wiping down surfaces etc
put the washing out
quick wipe down of bathroom
then its lunch time...feed the kids, clean up
pick oldest up from school, then its tea time, as usual clean up after tea
then drop oldest off to mosque
and start preparing for the evening meal
collect oldest from mosque
hubby comes home, have an evening meal together, clean up kitchen
put kids to bed.
i usually vacuum in the evening so its nice and clean for the next morning.its usually 9 or 10pm by the time i've finished

other than that...i do regular washing...try to iron twice a week
clean windows/doors once a week...even though they need a daily clean
bathrooms are thoroughly cleaned twice a week
vacuum whole house twice a week
bedding is washed weekly
sofas cleaned weekly

unfortunately i can never spare much time for my overgrown gardens

so yes my life is dictated by the housework..if i ever indulge in a social activity..god forbid then my whole routine is messed up...however i try and keep housework to a minimum on weekends, so that we can spend time together as a family...so please don't visit me on weekends as the place looks like a bombsite...lol

i really wanna know what routines other mums have...maybe i can take a leaf or two out of their books and escape all the housework
