Do you vacuum every day

Absolutely not just as and when it needs doing. Probably about once a week more if we have a lot of company ... but as that is not happening ...

mcem I vacuumed downstairs today. Goodness me, was it tedious and thank goodness that's over for a while!
I even flicked a duster round, thank goodness DH still has some birthday cards up - I didn't move them.

Er..... no! Next question please. Seriously though, I hate housework. Always have, always will. When lockdown started I walked around with some lethal spray and a cloth, wiping down every surface anyone might have touched. But even that has faded to a couple of times a week. I Hoover when it looks like it is needed, usually after we have been eating biscuits or crisps. We have a brand new very light coloured carpet in the lounge so I guess I do Hoover a bit more often, but not much. There is only me, DH and two cats so there is nobody here to judge us if we look a bit slovenly.

Can't believe this thread has 137 posts!
Answer is - only when necessary and how on earth can such a tedious activity generate this amount of interest?
GN at its most trivial!

Every day? Dear lord - absolutely not!

That should be DGD2!!

Well I see there are a lot of serious answers but I don't think it can be a serious question

I use the Dyson cordless once a week and, though, it's always full of dust, the carpets never look dirty. I have no pets so there are no hairs to clear up. If the downstairs needs it, I do a quick swoop through with the Dyson to put the stripes back on the carpet at the weekend.

I just read that James Dydon is now at the top of the rich list. He deserves it. My four bed house used to take 40 minutes to Dyson with the old, heavy, plugged version and now the cordless takes 20 minutes it is so light and manoeuvrable. It is more like a game than hard work.

Every morning!
DD2 has learnt to crawl and EVERY little thing goes in her mouth so it’s vital that the floor is clean as possible .
Before baby? A completely different story....

I used to have to before my elderly cat was put to sleep. She was an indoor cat in her dotage and ‘walked’ the cat litter everywhere. I’m surprised how infrequently it needs doing now that she’s gone!

shadieladie - are you sure that verse refers to vacuuming? ?

I dont mind untidy but I cant abide it not being clean.Kitchen and bathroom floors get steam cleaned daily too here I dont mind magazines on seats or worktops and theres always things living on the stairs to be taken up.My OH pet hate is anything except a kettle and toaster on the kitchen worktop,everything else lives inside cupboards and drawers .

Yes , whole house everyday, it’s the one household chore I love! Obviously a bit weird, I’ll get my coat!! ( Am weird, looked for a hoover emoji, there isn’t one!) ?

As and when it needs it.

Do you really need to ask that question.

No! I ripped up all the carpets 20 years ago, and have wooden floors all round the house. Other half is mildly allergic to cats, but I love them, so I have a Devon Rex - doesn't shed. He is mad as a bag of frogs and very full on - the cat, not the OH . As there have been no visitors, and it's just us here, the floors get done as and when! Loving lockdown!

Every day in my twenties
Every other day in my thirties
Twice a week in my forties
Once a week in my fifties
Once a month in my sixties
I'm now in my seventies!!!!

Not anymore, Tuesday's and Friday's are enough

Only when I get down on my Pilates mat and can see how bad it is even without my glasses on ??

It doesn't seem to make any difference how frequently or infrequently I vacuum in my living room, there's always the same amount of gubbins in the cup thingy. I am vacuuming more often lately because I'm doing so many zoom meet ups and I'm concerned now, that I'm pulling stuff through the carpet, through the floor and out of the foundations and my house will eventually disappear into a sinkhole! Hopefully, if this happens, it will be after the lockdown is finally lifted so I can be out when it happens!

Hello! I can't imagine being so tied to daily vacuuming! Why is it important, unless you have a hair shedding pet? How dirty is a room after a few days or a week? Who are you doing it for everyone? Are you going to be judged if you leave it? Suit yourself. I do it when I think it needs it & that's a whole other conversation!

Yes I vacuum every day, and wash kitchen floor every week.

I hoover when it needs it, even though I have two cats and a chihuahua

I don’t vacuum. My help does it when necessary!

Not likely, once a week on average, or if someone is coming. Electrician coming on Thursday so will do it Thursday morning. We are spending most of our time in the garden. Cleaning lady not coming while we are in lockdown, she has a large multi-generation and blended family.

puzzler I never think of it like that tbh. I like it to be clean and clutter free but I dislike housework intensely which is why 5and a half days of the week it is completely ignored. But yes, it soundS boring to have a routine like that, but I have to have that or it would be chaotic.

Today is housework day and I’ve just finished for the week. The sitting room and conservatory got a good going over, everywhere else a quick dust and hoover. DH does upstairs so it isn’t too bad. Now done until next week.

And relax???. Freedom!! Beach on Wednesday with picnic. Not sure about loos though??
