Sod rearranging the furniture, I can't be bothered with that! I vacuum the sofa because the cat sits there and makes it super hairy, one of our kids is asthmatic and our new baby has been in and out of hospital with bronchitis so I fear anything like fur or the budgie making a mess with his seed might aggravate that, plus our one year old puts everything in his mouth and crawling about if I didn't make sure the carpet was clean goodness knows what he'd end up choking on. So I like to make sure that's done. I'm not usually that bothered about a bit of mess, but lately it really gets to me and makes me quite anxious. I think because my husband hates it so much. He'd rather have a minimalistic house, which is all very well, but we have kids and they make a mess as kids do, so it's never spotless. We also have a very judgemental health visitor who seems to love to pick holes in everything I do, so if I give her the opportunity to see a messy home she'll make a meal out of it I'm sure.
It would be lovely to employ someone to do this instead, and a chef that would be nice too! Then again, I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with a stranger touching our things.
But yeah, it does feel good to conquer something that's needed sorting out a while!
