If you really need to clean your house but can't find the time or energy, here's a tip... Schedule a window cleaner to come and do the outside windows on Friday and carpet cleaners to come on Monday. Then invite the new priest to come for dinner on Wednesday. You'll find more time for cleaning than you ever thought you had! 
Editing to add, make sure you throw a porch renovation in there too!

If I didn't get everything done my MIL would just start doing it for me.

Well, I'm happy to say the windows are now clean and shiny and the carpet looks great ... for the time being. We even had a great morning of school work because I had to keep all the kids in the basement school room while the carpet cleaners were here. I wouldn't recommend this schedule if you don't like stress, but it sure was a way to get things in order around here.
My oldest ds didn't clean his room and I didn't get to it. The window cleaner commented on "teenage boys". I didn't know why until I went back to his room and saw what a mess it was. Oh well. The windows sure look good!
