When the Mother of a house works, then eveybody who lives in the house, should help clean the house!
Cleaning is not my favourite activity, especially on the weekend, but a house is so much nicer and more enjoyable to live in, and every thing is so much easier when it is clean. I have found that quite a lot can be accomplished in short fifteen minute bursts of housework, when every body pitches in.
I set the timer on the kitchen stove and delegate either a room or a particular job (such as vaccuming, mopping or folding clothes) to each person. It doesn't matter whether you have a large or small family, because the mess will be in proportion to that anyway. Even one person can accomplish a huge amount in just fifteen minutes.
I use fifteen minutes for the time, because it is not so long (like an hour), that even I don't want to get started. One or two fifteen minute bursts a day seem to keep my house ticking over fairly well.
