Confessions of an Un-domestic Goddess

[TeniBear]

I have too many confessions, so I'll just add two:

Until yesterday, I hadn't seen my broom in 2+ months, despite looking for it. It was under the kitchen table. No idea how it got there, or how I never noticed...

Also yesterday, I discovered that my vacuum can be broken down even further than I thought for internal cleaning. I had been wondering why it was losing its sucking power, and blamed it on a failing battery.

Not a great house cleaner here. I just don't have it in me. I could wipe a bench the exact same way as someone else, for them it would be clean, but for me it would still be icky. Same with ironing. If I do iron, the moment I put the clothes on, they just don't stay that way. I envy those that they go out their clothes still looked ironed.

I do what I can and rope the kids in when I can. They sometimes fold the washing for me and unload the dishwasher. I also get them to straighten the couch from hell (it gets messy the moment you look at it sideways).
