I often see/hear people berate themselves for their lack of domestic cleanliness. And it turns out they are already cleaning the house much more often than I do! So for all of you who think you are uncleanly slobs, here is the ugly truth about me:

All chores listed as how often I think I should do them/how often they actually get done. Actually, despite the "I should" here, I am totally okay with the state of my house, and clutter bothers me more than dirt.

Vacuum and sweep: weekly/every other week, sometimes every 3rd.
Clean bathroom (toilet/sink; does not include tub or mopping): weekly/every other week.
Clean tub: every couple of weeks/when I can't stand the scunginess and/or want to have a bath, which is in practice every couple of months.
Mop anything: every couple of months/hahahahahaha. I do not mop. mr. flea has been known to mop, generally once every 6 months or so.
Change sheets/towels: weekly/about once a month, unless there is pee involved.
Wash dishes: daily/sort of daily, maybe every other day. Sometimes low-priority pans sit for several days.

Don't you feel better now?

I so hear you on this. I just cleaned my house before leaving town, not because of the normal nice-to-come-back-to-a-clean-house reasons, but because I don't want to be embarassed when my catsitter comes in.
