jackwallace 3 #26 April 13, 2011 How about cleaning like a man. Fire up the air compressor. 130 psi will move some dust. Then turn on the Roomba, sit down and drink beer.U only make 2 jumps: the first one for some weird reason and the last one that you lived through. The rest are just filler. scr 316 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
popsjumper 2 #27 April 13, 2011 True story. I like to keep things somewhat tidy and I don't like the trailer-trash look. Fortunately, or unfortunately (but that's another story), my ex was a clean freak. Not the deep-clean type but the busy-work type. She'd vacuum multiple times a day...every day. It's amazing that our carpet had any fuzz at all. Set down a glass on a table and you'd better keep a hand on it. Get up to go to the bathroom or something, come back and it's gone....in the dishwasher. I sometimes threatened her that I was gonna drive her totally bat-shit crazy one day by super gluing a glass to a table and just sit back and watch the show. Heaven help me and boy if we left a sock on the floor. We'd STILL be hearing about it. If you left something laying out, it'd be gone when you came back and now you're on a search mission trying to find it if she's not there to tell you where she put it. "Where's that screwdriver I was using?" "I put it away" "Where?" ...now putting things away is a good thing. Putting it in different places every time is something else. If you're going to put it away, put it where it belongs! You know, now that I think about it, she was probably trying to drive ME bat-shit crazy and did a good job of it. My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus. Falcon5232, SCS8170, SCSA353, POPS9398, DS239 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is that a euphemism? i knew as soon as I posted that someone would take it out of context..I had two kitties one was very fuzzy and would shed everywhere if she was not combed daily. The other had short hair and was all black. I found a fine comb worked well to keep them from shedding all over.TPM Sister#130ONTIG#1 I love vodka.I love vodka cause it rhymes with Tuaca~LisaH You having a clean thought is like billyvance having a clean post.iluvtofly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 35 #33 April 13, 2011 Oh, I'm not as bad as your ex. I do like the main areas cleaned up before bed, so I can wake up to a peaceful room intead of one that is full of clutter but even I have things laying around throughout the day. Now, dishes left in the sink: that's a no-no unless you're having to soak something.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely with you on that - dishes get washed or put in the dishwasher immediately after use (with the exception for soaking, of course)."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.
