Cleaning other people’s messes--or even your own messes, for that matter--isn’t an ideal way to spend an afternoon. Lazy afternoons lying in bed reading a favorite book or catching up on your favorite shows with a bucket of buttered popcorn sounds much better than picking up dirty socks littered on the floor.

But dirty clothes and the dust lurking in corners or on surfaces seem to pile up at a mind-boggling speed. Before you know it, you’re left with a mountainous pile of laundry and a whole house to dust--twice.

Believe it or not, your housekeeping skills can be quite revealing. Housecleaning, although tedious, is an important chore that keeps your home beautiful, livable, and most importantly sanitary.

What do you do when unexpected company calls? Do you do little tasks on a daily basis so your home is always in a reasonable state of cleanliness? Does your mother wonder how you live in the mess you call your home? What is your cleanliness personality? Take the quiz and find out!
