Somewhat clean! I need 20 minutes to tidy up.

10 min and it would be presentable. We have a big house but only certain rooms get used frequently. So if I had a lil time to pick up I think I'd be ok!

Somewhat clean! My toddler tries to destroy our house on a delay basis so I basically have to follow him around and pick up as I go but it's not horrible. Our bathroom needs a scrubbing though as it's been two weeks. Yikes.

Somewhat clean. I would need a few minutes to wash the dishes.

Somewhat clean. That's only because I know where to hide all her toys!

Most of the time we are barely presentable, right now we are semi-stellar since we have an IL visit happening.

Barely presentable but if you come over unannounced, that's what you get and I'm okay with it!

Somewhat. I have a dog who sheds, and I vacuum every other day. Right now the shedding is in extreme. But, we pick up after ourselves here, and I don't like a lot of stuff around, so it's not a cluttered mess.

With 10 minutes I could avoid embarrassment, with 30 I could feel decent, with more than that…well…by then there would be a new mess.

Our house is tidy. The only thing you typically find is toys in the living room floor. That's just normal with a 2 year old.

Somewhat clean. Give me 15 minutes to pick up toys and wash a couple pots and we'll be golden.

Somewhere between "bar the door" and "give me a few minutes," depending on the day.

The bathrooms could use a cleaning, the main area is untidy but not dirty. Just don't go in the master bedroom.

@Kiwibee: Totally agree! Kitchen mess is the worst. DH is supposed to tackle the dishes after I cook, but he tends to leave it longer than I would prefer, which is what happened last night (and why I had to make coffee in a messy kitchen this morning... grr).

ps. LOVE your avatar! It is so cute. And welcome to HB!

We are in-between "very clean" and "somewhat clean." There are toys all over the place but I could probably tidy up within 10 - 15 minutes or so.

This is just the main living/family room, kitchen, and bathroom... our other bathrooms, family room, and bedrooms are kept closed

Ours is messy but not dirty. I could make it presentable in about 30 mins

It's fine. But I don't let visitors in ever so it wouldn't matter.

Our house is pretty neat, there might be toys on the floor, but a 3 year old lives here!

@Espion: @Dandelion: @PermaStudent: @MapleMoose: hello, rolling tufts of dog hair! Mine has also recently joined in the tumbleweed fun, as well. Thank you, PP hair loss!

@birdofafeather: fact. If you come over unannounced, you are more than welcome, on one condition: don't look at the mess!

@dreamocracy: I think this about sums up our house-stuff may be out, but it's generally not dirty. Except the back of the toilet-I don't know why, but I am CONVINCED that men make it dirtier than women. At least, it's usually dirtier now than I ever remember it being when I lived alone.

@Grace: HA-you just made me LOL. Yes, more than a clean house, the likelihood is that I am not wearing clothes. So I would need a few minutes to put on a bra first

I voted "give me a few minutes," but like @FliegepilzHut: it really depends on the day. We've been trying to get rid of excess crap around our house, because I just don't have the storage space for it. The unfortunate part is there is a whole storage closet in the basement of our building that hasn't been touched and is full from floor to ceiling of things that need to be gone through. Good thing no one goes down there!

ETA: voting this way is INFINITELY easier now that we have a dishwasher!

Thanks @LovelyPlum
