Spring begins on March 20, and around this time the thoughts of some turn to spring cleaning. But not everyone, as you’ll see from these quotes:
Housework is something you do that nobody notices until you don’t do it. – Evan Esar
Nature abhors a vacuum. And so do I. – Anne Gibbons
Cleaning your house while your kids are still growing is like shoveling the walk before it stops snowing. – Phyllis Diller
Cleanliness is not next to godliness. It isn’t even in the same neighborhood. No one has ever gotten a religious experience out of removing burned-on cheese from the grill of the toaster oven. – Erma Bombeck
My idea of housework is to sweep the room with a glance. – Anonymous
Always keep several get well cards on the mantle, so if unexpected guests arrive, they’ll think you’ve been sick and unable to clean. – Maxine
I’m not going to vacuum ‘til Sears makes one you can ride on. – Roseanne Barr
I hate housework. You make the beds, you wash the dishes and six months later you have to start all over again. – Joan Rivers
Housework is a treadmill from futility to oblivion with stop-offs at tedium and counterproductivity. – Erma Bombeck
Conran’s rule of housework: It expands to fill the time available plus half an hour. – Shirley Conran
When it comes to housework the one thing no book of household management can ever tell you is how to begin. Or maybe I mean why. – Katharine Whitehorn
If your house is really a mess and a stranger comes to the door, greet him with, “Who could have done this? We have no enemies.” – Phyllis Diller
Dust is a protective cover. – Anonymous
