But wait, my friend just told me she was going to stop cleaning the dust bunnies because those little bunnies are going to help her baby not get asthma.

I'm sooooo confused . . .

Well I hope not. There's nothing nicer than I good bit of blue cheese. ;)

My wife cleans whenever she gets stressed which I manage to cause for her on a regular basis.:rolleyes:

Before my last surgery we had made arrangements with my parents to come help out with the kids, my wife and parents don't exactly get along. Her first thing to clean when stressed are the hardwood floors, Sweep then mop. I swear she wore the floors out in the weeks leading up to that event, she must have done those floors at least 5 times a day not to mention the bathrooms. She cleans those every couple of days, when stressed at least once a day sometimes more. Needless to say the house was sparkling by the time my parents arrived.

You are no mere mortal.

Well, when I lived with my grandmother I cleaned the upstairs every day. After dinner I would do the dishes and clean the counters and whatnot, but I rarely sweep and mop. I would do all this so my grandmother didn't have to, because she has a really hard time getting around and staying on her feet for long. I still clean the kitchen every day I go over there. That is the only room in the house that gets filthy every day.

But now that I live in an apartment with my SO, I don't clean nearly enough. I usally do dishes once a week, and that is only because the cat food is on dishes. We hardly ever (i.e. a few times a month) eat there so it doesn't get dirty. And our vacuum cleaner is broken so I can't vacuum unless I bring my grandmother's vacuum cleaner home with me, and that is usally too much trouble. But I try and tidy up (the pick up and put away method) at least every other day. If I didn't you wouldn't be able to walk without stepping on something... my SO thinks the floor is a hamper. :thepain:

i clean the whole house and do all the yardwork on saturday. once a month i pay a lady to do the shit i don't do like ceiling fans, baseboards, scrub the tile. every six months a guy comes and washes and squeegies all the windows. if i let a little clutter gather i get bad and let it all go to hell, so i have to keep everything straight daily, or i'm hosed. no dishes in the sink overnight - ever.

Not to mention the unsingle ones!

I can't go to bed unless the dishwasher is loaded and running. I like to get up to a clean house. I also clean before I leave on a trip so we come home to a clean house.

DucksNuts 11-22-2006 04:24 AM

Seriously - i'm moving!!

The men over there are hot AND do house stuff.

Gotta spare room lookout???? :D

Oh.

I was an X-ray tech for 8 years and an RN for 11. Now I am a f/t student and I work at the Uni, too.

The biggest portion of my nursing career was occupational health; the last four/five years of nursing was in psych--a field that flat-lined me pretty completely. I don't know how wolf stands it, but she does.
