One afternoon not long ago, I decided to conduct a little experiment. Nothing scientific. No clipboard required. Just a kitchen timer and a bit of curiosity. I wanted to know how long everyday housework actually takes.
Like many people, I sometimes catch myself thinking certain chores will take forever. Wiping the kitchen counters. Emptying the dishwasher. Putting away laundry. Cleaning the bathroom sink. Somehow these small jobs gather in the mind and grow into something that feels like an entire afternoon of drudgery.
