  • hi superpup... yes i am addicted to this site ~ wheres the padded room :rotfl: now cleaning... well i am 'ok' because i am still living at home so i clean the bathroom/kitchen as i go however my room is a differnet story :rolleyes: you see its not so much mse its work :rotfl: anyways i tend to keep everything in its place everything clean/tidy and bed made however pan over to my desk and its like a bombs hit it :rotfl: however seeing as i spend 99% of my personal time here i can see why. i ahve paper/pens/calculators/empty bottles and stuff everywhere.

    I tend to clean once a week (day off) so vaccum, dust, polish, wipe, clean animals then every other weekend that i have off i 'deep clean' ie empty all drawers clean/sort/ebay them, scrub everything, change bed, shake n vac carpets and air the room. however i do get days where i just cant stand my desk so i will sit there and clean it before i log onto/do it around mse

    I see what you mean though...
  • Here's a question. Do I wake up Ste so he can do his washing up.. cos I'm not doing it. :mad: Or would that be really cruel?

    Stick a post it note on his forehead to remind him, and then get yourself off to bed for a well earned rest!

    Really cruel, but possibly really funny too :D

    Unless he's like my OH, in which case leave it to one side for him to do in the morning. I once left OH's jeans on the washing line for 10 days in all weather because when I asked him to he said he was just about to do it and would I stop nagging please. :rolleyes: Unfortunately no birds did their dirty business on them, where's sod's law when you need it?
  • I've done so much my hands are dry and sore!!! If he thinks I'm doing his !!!!!!! washing up he's got another thing coming.. :mad: It can stay there til he does it.

    That would be really cruel.

    I think you should do it! :rotfl:

    Or, put the washing up brush in one hand and the washing up liquid in the other so he can see it when he wakes up...
  • Mine is a big big mess. I try and keep the lounge tidyish so that if anyone comes in then I can shut the doors and sterr them straight in there. Kitchen looks absolutely awful BUT I am stripping it so I can give it a coat of paint. I have a friend who has an incredibly tidy house. Her and her hubby are totally anal about it. I couldnt be ar*ed . I want the kids to remember they had fun with me not that they always had a tidy house but mum was too busy to talk to them. I keep thinkin if I die unexpectedly then I am going to be helluva embarassed :rotfl: .
