Our 90+ year old cottage has wood floors. I was ecstatic until I realized that this mean sweeping or dusting those floors several times a week. Now I want carpet. At least carpet hides that yucky dirt. I agitated for a Roomba, but dear husband doesn't think they really work, even when I pointed out that Engadget review them and liked them. Sadly, he doesn't hold Engadget with the same awe I do. Frankly, cleaning the house doesn't bother me, it's laundry that really irks me. I'd much rather scrub toilets than do laundry. So I won't be sending L.A. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa my toilet brush. Toilets take three minutes, laundry lasts forever.
Music is very important in cleaning house. I listen to the Gipsy Kings while I sweep and mop.
I have my very own red couch with two matching red chairs. A hint to the wise: do not get leather furniture if you have cats. Expecially un-declawed cats. (By the way, that photo looks just like my cat Java, except she is suspicious of any food not found in her bowl).
Wow - blog-cleaning really works. The house looks great!
