"BEFORE BYC"? wow, you've got some serious self control going on! Applause, applause! How much coffee does it take to get that much cleaning power?
I know its time to clean the house when...
I have gone through about 3 to 5 underwears and pants in 1 day cuz I can't stop sneezing.
When my level of mental craziness goes BOOM!
When I have to tell Baby Lily No for getting something and she turns around and goes for something else and makes it out as a game
When your first grader - without being asked - gets out the broom and dustpan and sweeps the kitchen! THAT was a wake up call! Of course, now that he's in fourth grade, the thrill of cleaning has worn off....

It's amazing how fast the little buggers outgrow that thought, about cleaning. My son always said that it wasn't his house, so who cared. (that always included a major
from me)
I get the ultimate last laugh, as I watch in glee as his wife makes him help to keep their home clean, because she is to ill to do it all herself. I must say I must have done something right, because he does it, and still comes and helps me when I need it now.
"It's time to clean your house" When you realize that your hiney is really uncomfortable as you are sitting here typing this, and you check the seat to see if you are sitting on something more than just the chair, and it slowly dawns on you that there is something in the seat of your jeans. I had to reach in and pull out both of yesterdays socks.
I could have put the socks in the laundry last night. But I would rather read.
I am just tried of dirt. It just keeps coming in everyday, and lays all over my floors, just like the pack of dogs that live here too.
I have another one. You know it's time to clean house when your DH say's he's going to throw the computer out the door and turn off the internet because all I do is sit and read on BYC.
But because of this thread, I washed my windows, moved everything in the house and did a spring cleaning in the fall. But I did have the help of my granddaughter.

It's winter and it's really cold outside what else can we do but read about chickens. I think this as good of an excuse as any for not cleaning the house all the time. After all " A clean house is a sign of a empty mind" I don't know who said it, but I believe them.
I hope all that cleaning didn't hurt to much, and least now you don't need to really clean again for a least a year, according to me.
