Aunt Jen 0 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I'd like to know why the house gets dirty. You know? You clean, scrub, clean, wipe, dust, sanitize....in April, and then one day in March you wake up and someone has sneaked into your house and dumped a load of dirt on the floors, and dog hair, and dumped some kind of silt all over the books and counters, and all the dishes look exactly like someone ate off them and never washed them? What is this? Like, hoards of little dirt fairies flying in through the vents to sabotage the place? There oughta be a law. Link to post Share on other sites
Jittery Jim Jonah, SASS #64913L 21 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 GREMLINS...... The little cusses even eat my food, let the dogs out, and strew stuffed animals all over the house.... They hide stuff and move things too, AT least they leave my GARLIC alone.

Abilene Slim SASS 81783 3,204 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Some of the animal fur might be coming from my house. With a lab and two cats, it blows across the floor like tumbleweeds around here. Link to post Share on other sites

Grizzly Dave 972 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Well, that's how I do MY cleaning true enough, just like my annual bath. But I kinda figured that a lady like Aunt Jen might clean a bit more often.... Link to post Share on other sites
Aunt Jen 0 Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 Every year I hook up the leaf blower, open the windows, and thoroughly clean the house. Cleanliness is next to Godliness, so.... But it gets dirty again for no reason I can see. It just happens, but it doesn't seem right. iPhone Link to post Share on other sites

Rye Miles #13621 7,411 Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 I got a cleaning lady. No I'm not one of them rich folks but I am single and hate to clean. My friend's wife cleans houses part time and I was lucky enough to get on her schedule. Once a month and she does a fantastic job! Rye Link to post Share on other sites

But I got a few tips from my step mom growing up. I take my shoes off before I enter the house.. (uh never)... lol.. I do wipe things off before putting them back in the refrig cuz I hate to clean the refrig mostly the little plastic tray thingers bug me. I have a coffee table with drawers (think drag and dunk).. lol. I use a quilt or comforter on my bed so you can hide messy sheets all crumpled from a night with the rat dog.. I use to put my dishes rinsed in the dishwasher... Now I simply try to wash as I use. My house is messy compare to how clean I use to keep it buty ou know Rat never complains... lol Toilets and bleach end of story.. lol Link to post Share on other sites

Cliff Hanger #3720LR 812 Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 I've been waiting several months for the wind to come up here in the desert. I seem to be away when it happens so I ain't here to open all the windows and beat the floor to get all the dirt and gravel moving out the door. I do keep a shovel close by in case the rocks get too big. ;^) Link to post Share on other sites
