hi, my name is Boobaloo, and i dread the thought of people just 'dropping in' for a visit, especially anyone in my family as they are all anal-retentives about cleaning.
my house is a $hit-fight at the moment, and i just cannot be arsed doing anything, i hate mess, but am incredibly lazy about doing anything about it. i think it comes down to the whole 'why should i bother, when my kids are messy buggers who will untidy it behind me...'
the only time my house gets a reallllllyyy big clean is when my mum is coming to visit, and she's in afghanistan, so at least she can't surprise me... but i live in fear anyway
i think dp is finally getting a bit fed up though...
My name is ~ Zarava Flutterby ~ and despite my best intentions the house is a pig sty.
I WILL put my schedule to good use NEXT WEEK
My current excuse is cyclone Ava isn't feeling well.. problem is she's actually laying down watching TV not moving.. prob more reason to get things done.
Oooh, finally a place where I don't have to pretend I'm a neat freak!!
I don't often get drop in visitors, so people who come to my house may think it's a lovely, clean home, ha ha how I fooled them lol.
I make sure the bathrooms and floors are done every 2-3 weeks, and the dishes are done at least every 2nd day lol.
But apart from that, my place is a mess. There are toys and clothes all over the house, it's very messy. I put it down to hating the place we live in, it's awful, however our house is currently being built and I have promised myself to be a much better house keeper when we move in, it'll be mine and it'll be all new and easier (hopefully!) to maintain.
My name is Anna and Im a mess mover. My house hasnt had the floors mopped in months, the bathroom has only been given a quick wipe over and I always have a pile of (clean) washing lurking in my loungeroom. Sometimes its even folded! I just move mess from one spot to another, less obvious, spot.
And I dont care because I have 3 feral children and a lazy husband who destroy all my (hard) work so Ive officially given in to the masses
The floors only get done because DH does them. I blame the vacuum cleaner. It's a commercial back-pack type vac & I hate it. So I don't touch it lol!
I try to do the dishes every night. & the last few weeks it's been working to the point where DH even does them sometimes too! But otherwise, we live in a disaster zone.
I had a big binge yesterday. My mum kidnapped DS for the day so I did lots of things I'd been putting off. I sorted out his baby toys, cleaned the bathroom, did the dishes & made dinner, then started on our back room. Where I promptly felt overwhelmed and just looked at the mess for about 20 minutes before doing nothing else for the rest of the afternoon. DH vac'd & mopped the floors. DS had a great time at his grandma's & he came home to a cleanish house. It might last for a day or two. Then we'll just have to wait for the next binge in 3 or 4 months time lol!
Hi my names Dansta and i'm a hap-hazard house cleaner.
I clean in sperts. then it dies. the floors get swept twice a week. by DH. the floors a vac'd once every two weeks. by DH. washing is done every 2nd or 3rd day depending on how dirty DH gets
i had a system. but it got a virus and crashed.
i will mop the floors, tomorrow along with fold my clothes and put them away in my wardrobe, not my floordrobe. and i may even find time to iron some of DH's good pants and shirts...
