This poem made me laugh and yes, it does describe my housework regime! I found it in Inside the Victorian Home (A portrait of Domestic Life in Victorian England) by Judith Flanders.
They that wash on Monday
Have all the week to dry.
They that wash on Tuesday
Are not so much awry.
They that wash on Wednesday
Are not so much to blame.
They that wash on Thursday
Wash for very shame.
They that wash on Friday
Wash in sorry need.
They that wash on Saturday
Are lazy sluts indeed.
