IT’S OKAY TO HAVE AN OFF DAY:
When a housewife’s daily routine is interrupted by an unplanned illness, it’s okay for her to rest and do less. This is why it’s important to keep up on daily housework; so that when something unforeseen happens, she can get the rest she needs while maintaining her home at a minimal level. If housework tasks aren’t regularly done, they become harder to accomplish the longer they pile up; and adding an illness on top of neglected housework doesn’t help. Once she is better, she can tackle her regular housework tasks with gusto at a maximum level.
