Snow White's little cottage

I call it so because it is a little cottage which looks like from a fairytale. I love it. It belongs to my colleague and last year he found his Little Snow White, too. Indeed, the girl looks like a character from Grimm's fairytale.Yesterday I finally found some energy to start cleaning that spot in the house where I keep all those papers and other things that I had brought from my previous home(s). I was thinking to ask you how you cope with cleaning the house, how you cope with keeping it clean and tidy. After being at work for 8 hours and spending an hour or so in a car every day to get to and from work, doing some essential shopping and everyday cooking, I am hardly in such mood to do the proper cleaning of my home. I have written already that one of the things I absolutely don't like doing is vacuuming.

Hopefully one day my home will be almost that beautiful as this little cottage on the photo (well, you can see just a hall that devides the cottage in two parts). As long as I don't cut my hair I might look like Little Snow White too. Of course, if I take my glasses off and if you don't look to close. :)
