When the trash men come by I just have them empty my house and leave the garbage cans. I have very clean garbage cans.

These are our cleaning rules, Our home is dirt friendly

1. Vacuuming too often weakens the carpet fibers. Say this with a serious face, and shudder delicately whenever anyone mentions Carpet Fresh.

2. If disturbed, dust bunnies cannot evolve into dust rhinos. Rename the area under the couch "The Galapagos Islands," and claim an ecological exemption.

3. Layers of dirty film on windows and screens provide a helpful filter against harmful and aging rays from the sun. Call it an SPF factor of 5, and leave it alone.

4. Cobwebs artfully draped over lampshades reduce the glare from the bulb, thereby creating a romantic atmosphere. If your husband points out that the light fixtures need dusting, simply look affronted and exclaim, "What? And spoil the mood?"

5. In a pinch, you can always claim that the haphazard tower of unread magazines and newspapers next to your chair provides the valuable Feng Shui aspect of a tiger, thereby reducing your vulnerability. Roll your eyes when you say this.

6. Explain away the mound of pet hair brushed up against the doorways by claiming you are collecting it there to use for stuffing hand-sewn play animals for underprivileged children.

7. If unexpected company is coming, pile everything unsightly into one room and close the door. As you show your guests through your tidy home, rattle the door knob vigorously, fake a growl and say, "I'd love you to see our Den, but Fluffy hates to be disturbed, and the shots are SO expensive."

8. If dusting is REALLY out of control, simply place a showy urn on the coffee table and insist that "THIS is where Grandma wanted us to scatter her ashes."

9. Don't bother repainting. Simply scribble lightly over a dirty wall with an assortment of crayons, and try to muster a glint of tears as you say, "Junior did this the week before that unspeakable accident. I haven't had the heart to clean it."

10. Mix one-quarter cup pine-scented household cleaner with four cups of water in a spray bottle. Mist the air lightly. Leave dampened rags in conspicuous locations. Develop an exhausted look, throw yourself onto the couch, and sigh, "I clean and I clean, and I still don't get anywhere."

No wonder he loves you so. Your the perfect woman.

What kind of messes do you create in the name of cleanliness and fun??

I hurt those I love to show I am actively involved in their lives, I scream at strangers on the street to make them into better persons, the best that they can be, I am right now involved in a messy court case of improperly crossing the street to teach the cop to have compassion and to stop lying, and I make my landlords all angry to show them they are not endowed with the powers to abuse me or my and other tenants' rights.

But I scream at people mainly and most importantly because I really enjoy doing that.

In fact it feels so good to do that, that I fear I am addicted to it by now.

Right now my house is messy. I just bought this trailer that needed to be repaired. Right now I am rebuilding my kitchen area. So have wood and stuff laying around. But, I can make it to the coffee pot

Gotta love a good project to keep things lively.

when Is'nt he??????...........................................LOL

Type
How clean is your house
into youtube and you will see bits of a tv programme we have here in the UK. You may all think your homes are messy or dirty, but wait till you see how others live!!!

actually mine is NOT messy and dirty.......I have a very good cleaning lady

Funny, thinking about it one of my neighbours is a cleaning lady and when I went into her apartment a few months ago to give her a parcel delivered to me for her I was surprised at the mess and dust etc. Not that I was running my finger over her shelves, but the dirt was so obvious. I suppose after cleaning up after others all day she can't be bothered with her own home. I find cleaning therapeutic and it is really good exercise. I usually like to rearrange the furniture according to whether it is spring or autumn (don't ask - it a peculiar thing I do) and therefore I can also clean the parts that are not usually seen. If visitors are coming, I make sure the bathroom and kitchen are spotless - the rest doesn't matter that much.
