I do have to do more cleaning since looking after granddaughter as I would hate her to catch something nasty from us when she comes to our place!
I used to clean floors every day when I first came to NZ, until my husband's aunty said, "You don't really do that, do you? Do it when it's necessary only" - so now I do
My (ex) husband's Auntie once gave me a similar piece of advice: 'Don't let yourself become neurotic over housework' - she was also a wise woman, & lovely with it too.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
