The only time I always wish we stay in a smaller house is when I clean and mop the floor. I guess it's a mutual feeling between us silais (except those who have reliable domestic helpers). The time for me to just mop the floor for 3 rooms, the hall and the kitchen takes about 2 hours each time. And a lot of complaints and wishes that there are less stuffs to move around and about.
I could have just close 1 eye and leave those space underneath the sofa, cabinets and everything with a little space under to be just the way it is. Who would want to touch those surfaces anyway? It's going to be dirty soon anyway. All the excuses I come up with to just cut the task short. But sometimes I just can't do it. I HAD to move them away to complete my task anyhow.
Now that I know what works and what not, I already had in mind how my new home gonna be designed. Everything shall be either sitting on the floor leaving no gaps for dust to gather OR hanged from the ceiling without touching the floor, like those hanging waterfall in Avatar. Ahh... mopping floor would takes less than 30 mins then! I might even mop the floor twice a day.
