I totally get it! Nothing is more hateful than housework! Since I had several surgeries in the past few months, this weekend will be the first time in months I can clean, and the house is such a wreck! I hate it!!!
Don't let the horrid job eat you alive, girl! LOL

The problem with housework is that it just keeps coming back to haunt you. You do one or two jobs a day, and by the next week, they are back again.

I won't mention what I think of dishes.........aghhhhhhhhh!

That's exactly why I hate it so much. I love that I live in a huge house, but it's also a never-ending cleaning job!

Cleaning the bathroom creeps me out as well. I'm getting ready to start it too, so hopefully we both make it back out alive(and breathing non-chemical air).

Lorelei aka:Ladymermaid Oct 15, 2009, 5:51pm EDT

Lol..... well I made it..those two horrible little rooms in our home are clean

I think that I may have a little mental damage but hopefully I can recover from it.

My thoughts are with you
Be safe in there....

LOL. I made it out reasonably unscathed as well. At least it's clean for the time being and since I live alone, no one to mess it up either.

c'mon; you're looking at this the wrong way. Let it be an adventure!

Lorelei aka:Ladymermaid Oct 15, 2009, 6:12pm EDT

Adventure? Adventure as in canoeing down an amazon river with poisonous snakes, beetles and bugs trying to attach themselves to my body?

Somehow I miss the thrill of this trek into that vast unknown that we refer to in whispered tones as "The Bathroom". Brrrrrrr I shiver at the mere mention of the word..........

If I tried that at my house it really would never get done then.......

Not fun doing that! I spray disinfectant bathroom cleaner all over it and let it kill all the germs, then wipe it all off. I don't like housework but sure feels good to have it clean. :)

If I let Paul clean the bathroom it might not get done till 2015 and I kind of figured that it needed to be done a little earlier than that.

I clean my bathroom daily. That is one room that I can't stand to have dirty. Everyone is the house wipes down the shower when they are done. After they are all done in the am I spray it with tub and tile cleaner.

Good luck on your bathroom cleaning.

I really cannot because I have a rare illness that comes with fatigue issues. In the program that I was sent to I was taught to budget my energy like other people budget time. First I am to do the things that I must, second I do the things that I want to - so I have a reason to stick around :), and then if I have left over energy to do the things that I should but that it is not essential whether they get done or not.

I would love to have a spotless home, but my energies just won't allow it, and there are just so many other things that I want to waste my energies on....

I love my life. It gives me an excuse to do what I want to instead of what I should :)

I have Celiac Disease, and it also brings with it, fatgue issues. I also am well aquainted with the pacing oneself, and conserving energy. I've gotten pretty good at it. One of the best things you can do for yourself is to make sure you get between 8-10 hours of sleep at night. It helps so much.
