Um- I'd like a maid service to clean my house for my birthday gift this year- there is too much fur, everywhere. And I can't stand cleaning floors. And dh has yet to do his 1 chore of cleaning our shower. Being that I don't wear my glasses or contacts in our shower, I really don't see how bad it is, which isn't that bad- but the bottom of the door frame catches the VERY hard water & I can't figure out how to get those orange deposits off it. It's nasty. If maid service could do something about the clutter- that'd be helpful too- expect then I probably wouldn't find anything again. MY kitchen is a catch all. What about laundry?... doing it, folding, putting it away. Where do I start? Our basement floor is one big laundry pile, not sorted, not in baskets, just a pile of random materials on cement, that we step on going to the machine to wash the necessities- socks, undies, uniforms, and sheets and towels. But not pants:
Everything else is just- other clothes... we don't go out, so we don't hardly wear these "other" clothes, or it's too cold to anyway. As just as I hate to admit it, we are both hoarders. He says he "collects" things, movies, games, pre-order gaming crap, posters, figurines, xboxs. I, keep stuff to sort & get rid of. I can't stand useful/non-broken things being thrown away in the garbage. It's the new American way, the I <3 Organizers way, the individual packaged way, the "just toss it out if you haven't used it in 6 months!" So wasteful to the planet, and people in need who could use that whatever. So i have a stash of tp rolls, packing peanuts and bubble-wrap, an old emptied, cleaned spinning spice rack, cleaned 2 liter bottles & gallon water bottles. All these things that can up-cycled into something useful. So my house is a wreck. Also, I have clothes I don't want to part with bcz I may fit into them again, whether they are too big or too small now.
On a side note, I don't think I'll be having kids.
Ughh.
Hey Lisa,
ReplyDeleteI wanted to respond to your comment but I didn't know how else to do so as your email isn't listed. Anywhoo, thank for checking out my blog and I know there aren't any posts about sewing on patches so I figured I should throw it out there! Hope it was helpful. I have not tried to sew the enlisted ranks on yet but I will try it for the future and post it if I do. Thanks for the idea :-). Cute blog btw. I love that ribbon tree! Making a mental note of that!
thanks Patty for the response- sorry if I didn't add my email, I think if you write a comment on your post page I'll get notified though. Maybe... I'm new to this blog thing! I found one other blog post of a man that does he & his wife's uniforms, also. I asked him for some tips.... I will just practice on a riped top we have laying around first, I think! haha
