Premium Member Housework Apathy
Housework what a chore
I refuse to do it any more 
My poor hands have blisters 
And my hands are sore
Oh my what a bore.

The more you do
The more you find
It's such hard work
And I don't have the time.

Some peoples houses are like a show room
Mine...

Premium Member Housework Naked
Doing chores in the buff on my mind
apron strings dangling down my behind
I hope he keeps mum
about seeing my bum
'coz my window cleaner's just resigned!...

There's more to keeping house,
Than washing dishes, sweeping floors.
You must wipe away the dirt,
From window sills and doors.

Picking up and straightening,
For certain is a must,
But if you want it to be clean,
It's wash and scrub or bust.

Because you ran the vaccuum,
You think you've done a...

You must wipe away the dirt,
From window sills and doors.

Picking up and straightening,
For certain is a must,
But if you want it to be clean,
It's wash and scrub and dust.

Housework
Who was it who said
Housework prolongs your life? 
Surely they jest! 
They can go take a hike

I've collapsed on the couch 
From just the mere thought 
After leaving it it far longer
Than I reasonably ought 

Where on earth do I start? 
I just can't decide...

She expected to do the chores no one likes; it had been her mother’s life.
Her husband had no idea that his wife dreamed of an...

Premium Member Paperwork and Housework Feelings
So many things to do today.
Things I love to do, and other things not so much fun.
Paperwork. Ugh. I wish it had never been invented.
Despise it, even online.  A never ending story.

Like housework.
Druggery that barely lasts long enough
For the ink to dry or the...

Domestic Order
The kitchen's disinfected, the worktops squeaky clean,
The laundry's in the wardrobe and nothing's left in the machine.
The crockery is washed and dry, it's stacked in cupboards, looking neat.
There's just one nagging problem, I've got nothing left to eat!...

to be messy and
