    I guess because I am an elitist fuck I have a cleaning lady. Once a week or once every two weeks. She does the one thing I totally hate - changes the sheets/comforter. I'd clean a toilet in a heartbeat, get on my hands and knees and scrub the floor - but I hate changing sheets.

    With a dog and two cats there is a lot of fur so we try to sweep as much as we can. And we make our kids do stuff too. Sunday is laundry day and I'm in charge of that. My husband is in charge of the litter box.

    I guess I'm an elitist fuck also,as we have cleaning girls come in on Wednesday.That said.we keep it sparkly day to day and in between.
    Not for nothing but I find the best foreplay in the world is doing the dishes,bathing the dogs and folding laundry.Plus I do all the cooking.Mrs rr loves that shit.:)
    everyone in LA has a cleaning lady....except maybe norm....pretty sure he does not.

    edit: fuck, I just remembered you're in Florida.....why do I keep thinking LA?....east coast elitist.
    I don't...really really would love to treat ourselves though.

    And what about cleaning men, hmmm?

    I was thinking the same thing... I'm sire there are some, especially in LA. All the starving wannabe actors have to do something to earn a buck.

    Buy a Dyson vacuum. I use it both for the carpets and the hard floors/tile areas. It has a switch on the front to turn off the brushes and works like a champ. I loan it to people everyone in a while and always tell them to vacuum with their regular one and then use the Dyson. They give it back always adding they went our and bought one. You will be disgusted when you see what your regular vacuum is missing.

    And last but not least, I think Rob needs a Degenerate Card check. Posts about cleaning? Really! What has the forum come to. Whats next, him giving knitting tips. You might as well admit to yourself elitist status is on its way to you my friend.

    and, I see your point but I think I can just be classified as a clean degenerate.....but still a degenerate, nonetheless.....at least I hope I can.
    Your eating 6 month old yogurt thread put you into a territory few degenerates go. Large bar to keep up to.

    I'm the overly picky one in my house with cleanliness and generally don't even want help as it must be done my way and extra thorough. I look around and think daily if it wasn't for those damn kids I would have a sports car, be able to travel around the world and would have a sterile house. Don't get me wrong as I love them and wouldn't change a thing. But instead of the above qualities I am a broke Father who drives a Ford and has a house he can't keep up with no matter how many hours I put in a week cleaning.

    Women may rail on men for whiskers in the sink but at least we don't leave a pile of hair in the shower, both from the tops of your heads and of the leg hair being shaved off. My wife is always pointing to the sink at me and I just point back to the bathtub/shower. Plus our whiskers don't require having to dump a bottle of draino down the sink like head hair does to a shower.

    I do clean my hair out of the bathtub after I shower...I've already burned out many vacuum belts thanks to my hair. I also don't shave (I wax), so no 'leg whiskers' in the tub either.

    Oh, and the thing in the doorway is called a 'transition piece'.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I've hung more than a few doors in my day....the "frame" of the door (sides and top) is the jamb...the piece across the bottom (if it has one) is generally either the threshold or, sometimes, a transition piece if you are going from one type of flooring to another.

    I have never heard of a "saddle" or "jamb rail".....no one has ever carried their bride across the "jamb rail"...what are you all smoking?

    We call it a threshold. The piece itself, when you buy it, is called a t-strip. The German word would be Schwelle. :lightbulb::lol:
    Oh, and I have a Dirt Devil with two changeable brushes, one with a washable attached mop of some sort. Cheaper than a Dyson, yet still nice and effective.

    I 'clean as I go'...so let's say I'm making spaghetti, chop everything, get pot of water boiling. Dump everything I just chopped up in the pan (i make sauce from scratch). Dump pasta in water, as pasta is boiling, I wash the cutting board and knife, put veggies away, wipe down counters. By the time I'm done washing, pasta and sauce are done. Tah-dah. Eat, and I wash the dishes after I eat.

    I don't have a dishwasher. Can't afford a cleaning lady, besides, that's weird to have someone come to my house to do that...I make the mess I clean it up. Can't stand when people mindlessly leave stuff (wrappers, tissue, etc) laying around, I have a trash can in every room for that reason.
    Though, I do have books, magazines, etc here and there, I don't have an immaculate house. Swiffer and vacuum as needed.
    (i have found that most people in my neighborhood do have a cleaning person).

    P.S. I hate sharing a bathroom with a boy.

    plz explain yourself here w/ this statement
    probably because his damn toothbrush takes up cosmetics space.
    Ha! Our shower has more than a dozen bottles of shampoo, conditioner, body wash, facial soap, facial scrub - all mine. His? A bar of soap (though I let him use my stuff whenever he wants).

    same here. I have a bar of Dial and a bottle (30% more for FREE!) of Suave.

    Well, you are kind of suave. Elitist suave but suave nevertheless.

    I agree. Most boys are gross! Never rinse the sink, never flush the toilet or flush it before they finish, never replace the tipi, never dry off on the floor mat, never hang up their poof, pee on the seat-rim-and floor...need I go on?? Finger and toe clippings, dirty laundry, let's not talk about the plunger, garbage not thrown away like empty tipi, tools left in the bathroom, never hang up towels...I have more lol.

    Women may rail on men for whiskers in the sink but at least we don't leave a pile of hair in the shower, both from the tops of your heads and of the leg hair being shaved off. My wife is always pointing to the sink at me and I just point back to the bathtub/shower. Plus our whiskers don't require having to dump a bottle of draino down the sink like head hair does to a shower.

    Buy a Dyson vacuum. I use it both for the carpets and the hard floors/tile areas. It has a switch on the front to turn off the brushes and works like a champ. I loan it to people everyone in a while and always tell them to vacuum with their regular one and then use the Dyson. They give it back always adding they went our and bought one. You will be disgusted when you see what your regular vacuum is missing.

    And last but not least, I think Rob needs a Degenerate Card check. Posts about cleaning? Really! What has the forum come to. Whats next, him giving knitting tips. You might as well admit to yourself elitist status is on its way to you my friend.

    Lol women do "rail" on men. Haha. It's so easy to rinse the sink. And if some don't like to clean around the sink in the little crevices then don't wait so long that you have to trim before you shave :lol:

    Oh please let it rain today.
    Those that can be trusted can change their mind.
  • ^^^^^^^^^^^^I do agree with you and there is a simple easy solution. Trimmers are all cordless now so you don't have to do it over the sink. I take it out onto the balcony and bulk trim over the rail. Finish work is done inside over the sink using the mirror which has minimal hair being cut and no big mess. My wife thinks I'm weird because of it. Maybe once I do the full job over the sink to get her to understand why I do it.

    Is it just me ,or when doing chores with a buzz on does changing the sheets and putting on the mattress pad seem like a monumental task?The shrink up and the elastic always pops off when you pull one side.I hate that.

    I got stoned and moved in a new couch, bedroom set and some other furniture my rich sister gave us. I didn't really want it as the stuff we have works fine but the wife couldn't resist an offer of 20,000 in furniture we couldn't afford normally. Plus I went to the gym. Not all stoners are lazy. Most yes, but some of us are actually quite productive.

    Yes, but did any of them ever get finished?

    I was focusing on gardening today and enjoyed myself out there in the summery weather for a few hours. My kid had to do the vacuuming - why else have them if you aren't going to put them to work?

    rr, that happens when you're the sole bed-maker. I do one side and then employ the "babe (+ big sigh), I really need your help with this". He does the same though.

    :yin_yang:

    imalive, I did that when I was around 18/19/20...the blow AND the multi-project things. They always turned out awful and half-assed. My god but the hyped-up mindset messed with me. Give me a good old bowl any day!
