Hi, my name is Laura and i can't remember how many months since my house has had a good clean.
I haven't seen the floor in our bedroom for 6+ months. My bathroom is barely passable and my floors are hideous.
I've been sick for over 2 weeks now and just can't rummage up any energy to get to it. And TBH i really jsut don't care enough to get myself stressed out about it. It is somewhat annoying knwoing where all my clothes are though.
Over and out
*love this*
My name is Myboys and i haven't properly cleaned my house for at least 1 month.
I've been struggling with MS and housework is the last thing on my mind.
dusting, vacuuming, mopping couldn't care less right now
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 :rofl:
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. :wall:
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 :lol:
I'm mistyschell.. I've got spew stains all over my carpet.
My name is Rowellen & I am also a binge cleaner.
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 :rofl:
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...
I'm LizJessie and I cleaned my house last month, and the last thing I've done lately was throw one bag of rubbish out from the living room bin today
Hi i'm smiles4u and i got so bored with the colour of my laundry walls about the time DD was born um lets see 4years ago now that my new laundry paint colour happens to look like a rainbow of colours cause it's actually the not one but two tall laundry hampers piled full of clothes that need to be ironed half way up the wall ... and i only really think about getting stuck into ironing them when the laundry hampers start to collaspe to the point that i can't get to the washing machine :hide: ... that's me hiding under the chair waiting for the next lot of clothes out of the laundry hamper to tumble down on me :redface:
... hellooooo someone anyone i think i have injured myself, ah what a shame i might need some physio with my HOT physio that dumped me last week, telling me my knees are better, pfttt :shakehead:
*** Oh and another thing the only time my front porch & path get swept as we get heaps of whirl winds of leaves is about 20mins before we have visitors to arrive which is like never cause no one hardly comes to visit us :rolleyes: ... anyone got a match maybe i should just invite them for a bonfire !!
HAHAHAHA I love it!!! Hi I'm MN.
I just Can't be bothered cleaning...
Folding clothes really annoy me - I just have to wash them again and they end up in the same place! Meh, I think there should be a washing room and everyone keep their clothes there :-)
I hate Ironing and don't do it! Ever! If something needs ironing DP does it!
My dishes do get done nightly... Only because DP can't stand a messy kitchen
Thank you for aking me feel normal
Hi my name is dragoncookie and I have a serious condition. It is called apathy...
:rofl:
My house is never clean during the week. I don't really even bother, other than trying to contain dirty clothes to one area. My husband is just a pig so I don't bother trying. I pretty much leave the kitchen as his domain and I do everything else. TBH I hate mess and I do try to clean on the weekends but nothing particularly special. On a Saturday I like to get everything done (which probably explain why it's messy by Monday).
So firstly them 4-5 loads of washing for the week. Most are tumble dried because our line only fits one load of washing and has no sun so I'd be waiting forever for everything to dry.
Then we chuck everything from the toy/DS corner into the plastic tubs so we can see the floor. While DH does the kitchen (stovetop, benches, any dishes yet to be put away) I vaccuum the bottom floor. Which takes about 5 minutes to do one metre square because our vaccuum cost $70 from k-mart and are currently not in a position to replace it.
Then we pretty much give up and say - anyone that may happen to visit can only see the bottom floor so... we're done. Sometimes I even forget to go back and do the laundry/toilet which is always gross because there is no ventilation in the laundry so all the drying makes a mess. Half a wall is grey, don't know how I will expain that one... :doh:
Anyway I guess my point about apathy was that I couldn't care less about the detail cleaning. And I think it's because this house was filthy when we moved in. The whole kitchen ceiling has oil splatter and food marks right into the laundry and back into the dining room. I hate having to clean something where I feel that I have someone else's mess to scrub back as well! What can you do though, we will surely lose partial bond when we move out because we can't maintain something that was already filthy.
What I don't get is I am sure they would have had to have charged a cleaning fee to the last tenants, but there has certainly been no cleaning done except the carpets when we moved in... even all the benches were sticky!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who does that :rofl::
No one ever visits if your house is clean! Its always when its at its worse.
Love this thread..very funny
I am entering this meeting in disguise teehee!
So glad im not the only one who goes on cleaning binges...!! The bigger my belly gets the less amount of time i can clean for without something aching!
Im hoping when i finish work i will have more time/energy to keep on top of things...right?
:rofl: Love it!:
Hey my name is Queen and I am a neglector house cleaner....I am hoping that if I ignore it long enough it will go away!!! :rofl:
It has been oh a good few weeks since its last good clean.
I keep saying to DH 'the girls keep me up at night' 'I am so tired' :rofl: One day he will cotton on to the fact that 10days a f/tnight they both sleep through :rofl:
Hey my name is Bonham08 and i'm lucky if all my housework is done every week, i do bits & pieces but never all at once. Benches, dishwasher gets done daily and washing gets done several times a week and everything else is once a fortnight.
Err.... yeah...sure, Ammaki ;) :hiding::
:rofl: well that is how it's supposed to work, but never does for me. Like, my days off are when the housework should get done. But my cleaning fairies never seem to show up :shakehead:
ETA - and I want to know, what is the point of dusting? all my dust seems to find it's way back an hour or so later? I still do it sometimes but never without asking myself WHY am I doing this :p
