dirty, smelly, nasty, yucky......... chores.
below is how I feel about chores.......
Every week it’s the
same thing….
You can’t deny it.
You can’t avoid it…
It always seems to
sneak up on you … and before you know it … you’re standing face to face with…………..
A DIRTY BATHROOM!!!
Dirty bathrooms are
the bain of my existence…. Mostly because no matter what you do … they are
ALWAYS dirty… even right after you clean them, they are dirty again the first
time someone uses the toilet, sink, and tub… whatever. If you have kids in your
house… especially boy kids ..or live with boys (or a man, which.. let’s be
honest.. are really like boys in respect to the bathroom)… then you probably
have pee on your toilet somewhere other than on the INSIDE of the toilet. This
is one of the grossest things I’ve ever experienced… it’s just so wrong. As a
girl growing up in a household mostly comprised of girls the toilet was always
clean… cuz girls are rad like that. Even if we by accident get something on the
outer rim of the toilet… we’re responsible and clean it up right away with a
piece of toilet paper. I think this is because we appreciate what it takes to have
a clean bathroom and want it to last as long as humanly possible.
Enter: dirty boys.
Boys… I don’t think
they care. They are dirty and smelly and make dirty and smelly messes in the
bathroom. Therefore I have deemed that the ONLY way to successfully clean a bathroom
is with bleach. It’s probably bad for the environment and I might get cancer
later in life for using it .. but it’s either cancer later or germs now. Since
cancer is only a possibility and germs are a definite…. I’m going with bleach!
Now bleach and me don’t get along well…. Every time I clean the bathroom I end
up spending the latter part of the day having trouble breathing and putting
calming moisturizer on my skin because I inevitably forget to put on gloves and
end up having a skin irritation from the bleach cleaner.
Enter… the wonderful boyfriend.
When my bf and I
moved in together six months ago or so … we started a cleaning routine and he
started cleaning the bathroom…. Because he hated seeing me in so much pain
after using the bleach… I’m thinking ..it’s his manly duty considering it’s
only him and his son that make the messes in the bathroom cuz I’m a girl and I’m
clean.
SO … bathroom chore,
not so much a chore anymore… *happy face*
Don’t even get me
started on laundry.
Really the only
chores I hate are the ones that are never ending… ones that no matter how often
you do them, they need to be done as soon as you finish them..
Which.. come to think
of it.. is all chores.
So I guess I hate all
chores.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm….
Makes sense.
Laundry and dishes kick my butt every time. I'd clean the bathroom any day over doing dishes.
ReplyDeleteVery funny! Bathrooms are the bane of my existance as well, considering I live with two boys and an old cat whose suddenly decided to start going potty in the bathroom (only he doesn't use the toilet). And I'm right there with you about the bleach - It's the only way! Thanks for stopping by today!
ReplyDeleteZack and I split the dishes, he vacuums and steam cleans, and straightens up, and I do laundry and clean the bathrooms.
ReplyDeleteIt's a pretty even split, and our place is almost always clean :)
