A Housewife Makes Housework Easier (Housework Sayings by JenExx)


A HOUSEWIFE MAKES HOUSEWORK EASIER:
Since it’s up to a housewife to tackle housework every day, it’s also up to her to create ways to make housework easier for herself. Breaking big tasks down into smaller steps is one way to make housework easier. It also helps to do a little work at a time instead of waiting to do a lot of work at once; for instance, when family comes home at the end of the day and the next wave of work hits, rather than waiting a housewife can take steps to prepare for that wave by doing dinner prep work early and having the next day’s lunch already made. Housework has to get done, but it doesn’t have to be harder than necessary; with some thought and planning a housewife can make housework easier.
