That Maxine ain't no fool, she knows where it's at!!

I Could of wrote this It is my lifestyle except I don't live in the country live in a city but never inviter people over. When family comes they know my house will be presentable but not extra clean and maybe a little cluttered. I only clean good right before I go away for a while and that is because if something happens to me I don't want dishes in sink or floor needing vacumned
|
Sounds about as good as it gets to me.
|
Sounds like a winner to me!
|
It is a lifestyle choice that I heartily endorse...except I can't stand a dirty kitchen sink! Hey, we're all allowed one phobia!

The one thing I really hate and never seem to find the time to do is dusting. DH likes to 'rattle my chain' a bit about it ... like making fingerprints in the dust, etc. So last week I bought him his very own whole box of Swiffer dusters. I thought that was very nice of me to do that. |
I really envy you. I feel like I have non-stop family in all day. I am pretty sure they love me but would they love me as much if I did't cook. LOL If I don't cook they open a can of something so I have way too many dirty dishes. I do put them in the dishwasher dirty. If I had to wash them before putting them in the dishwasher I wouldn't need the dishwasher.

Thanks for the chuckles.....

I understand the concept of cooking and cleaning, just not as it applies to me. I read recipes the same way I read science fiction - I get to the end and think ........ Well, that's not gonna happen! I find it helps to categorize my chores: Things I won't do now. Things I won't do later. Things I'll never do. There should be support groups for women who can't put their dishes in the dishwasher dirty. Maxine taught me this lifestyle and I thank her for it! :mrgreen: Jan in VA Jan, I like your style. |
My Mom never told me I had a twin!!!!
