Just got a catalogue from Museum Selection who are offering an apron with this quote on it. By American humorist Erma Bombeck, 1927-96. She also said:

Housework is a treadmill from futility to oblivion with stop-offs at tedium and counter productivity.

My theory on housework is, if the item doesn't multiply, smell, catch fire, or block the refrigerator door, let it be. No one else cares. Why should you?

My second favorite household chore is ironing. My first being hitting my head on the top bunk bed until I faint.

I liked a lot of the quotes on this page:

Housework Quotes, Sayings about Chores, Yard Work, Cleaning
