My Auntie Val just told me a story of a friend of hers who came up with a valuable way of thinking about housework. Rather than thinking of yourself as slaving away do as her friend did and think of yourself as "honouring
Hestia, Goddess of the hearth".
Here is some great info all about Hestia. Another useful euphemism she taught me is "hydro therapy" for washing dishes. Thinking of it as such really does make it more fun.
