New research shows that when men feel they do a fair share of housework, they report having sex more often and finding it more satisfying. This is a change from older ideas about chores and relationships.

Wed. Jan. 14, 2026: Vacuums and Laundry

Waning Moon
Uranus and Jupiter Retrograde
Cloudy and raw
Slogging through the week, here. Yesterday seems like it was far away, somehow.
I did hearth and home stuff, like putting the dinner in the crockpot, dealing with some email, doing some filing, creating the questions for the #FreelanceFriends chat I’m hosting on February 5, taking out a lot of garbage, and finally putting together the new vacuum. Of course, the directions were wrong, and they didn’t mention connecting a rather important hose, but I figured it out.
And it works really well. I spent about 90 minutes vacuuming, which is a good session to get things done for a place of this size, although I’ll leave deep corners and moldings for the deep spring clean in early March. But it does a good job. Tessa, Bea, and Charlotte hid while I worked, but Willa kept pointing out where I missed a spot. The vacuum doesn’t faze her at all.
In the afternoon, there was a webinar with the Author’s Guild about the current Anthropic Settlement. Chances are there will be more suits, since there was a cutoff date and not everyone’s books that were stolen (per the ATLANTIC database) made it into the suit. So there’s a lot of paperwork and a lot of hoops. But it was good to get the information and know the steps.
After that, I did a little prep work for the next ghostwriting assignment, which is due on the 21st.
And then it was time to head out for yoga. The sidewalks were pretty clear, except for a few patches, and I got up there easily. I’d considered skipping it, because the thought of hauling myself out of the house was a lot, but I’m glad I did. We all needed it. One of my fellow yogis is going through a tough patch right now and works almost across the street from me, so I told her if she ever needs to take a break and decompress, to come over, have a cup of tea, and a cat on her lap. At least she knows she has that, if things continue down the current path.
Home, and it was lovely to have the crockpot meal waiting. It was pork chops with apples that had been cut up and mixed with brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, cinnamon, and ginger. It was good, but I think I would either cook it for a shorter period, or put just a bit more liquid in with it.
And yes, more leftovers. I won’t cook much next week, because we have to eat down the leftovers.
I read in the evening and played with Bea, who wanted extra attention. The catnip crayons are a big hit with all of them. Thank you, Auntie Chris!
Woke up a little after 3 again, and got up around 5 to get the morning routine going and to get things out to the laundromat. Two loads, they’ve raised the prices again, and it’s kind of ridiculous. But we have clean clothes.
It’s easier to fight the world burning down in clean underwear.
Next week will mostly be fabrics from the holidays and the usual sheets and towels, so it shouldn’t be too bad. After breakfast, I will fold things up and put them away. I also have to unbag the 16 pounds of dry food into jars. The little monsters finished everything. They were very happy to be fed at 5 AM this morning, though.
Tessa was waiting for me at the front door when I got back from the laundromat to tell me everything that happened in the hour I was gone. Tessa is rarely down at the door, so it was pretty funny.
Also on today’s agenda: asking my state elected officials to vote “no” on a particular bill, and get on them for not doing enough to protect citizens against the cosplaying domestic terrorists; get on my federal officials (again); work on the galleys for VICIOUS CRITIC; work on the next ghostwriting assignment; work on the next book for review.
I’d rather take a nap.
Have a good one.

#HouseholdChores #Cleaning
#DustOne of the chores for the day done: cleaned under the bed.
Didn't have to wrangle the dust bunnies too much because they were more like dust BISON.

It’s #LaundryDay for me.
I found myself with the folding task I dislike most: the dreaded fitted sheet. I have never been able to fold one in a way that didn’t make me cringe at the end result.
Came across a helpful video today. This is the best description I’ve found to fold them quickly with good results: https://youtube.com/shorts/Rvsv5yctu8c?si=2me7P3HfexuNlfcT
Hoping this helps someone else 😉

If you had the money, what would be the first household chore you'd pay someone to do for you?
Mine would be the ironing.
The worst is in the summer when you are already hot before you eveb start, and automatically have more ironing from washing clothes more often from being sweaty.
I know lots of people skip out on the ironing, but I'm one of those people where it will bother me MORE if my clothes aren't ironed.

This #Mondog Laika participated the #HouseholdChores when we picked up a package from the post office.
(Yes, I did help her, she didn't have to do it all alone all the way.)

Gave myself a STEM lecture while making a bakingsoda volcano in the bathroom to open a clogged sink.

I was hoping #BeardGrabber could help me sort #socks, but he prefers shoving them around with his bulldozer, and loading them up in his #dumptruck instead, undoing any sorting I might've done 😅

@vicorva same here, I am distracting myself too much on the computer to do some #coding, so I think I'll actually do some #householdChores such as folding laundry instead...
