We all do it... ....or maybe just a few

[LilbitChicken]

I always clean...BUT I don't always clean perfectly! (2 little children, and pets! time is maxed out!) Unless I know a holiday is going to be spent at our house with all the family.

I DON'T ever peek around a neighbor or friends house!
I guess why do something you don't want done to you!

Clearly, we don't ALL do it.

Only in hotels, where I am paying for a clean tub. My house, despite what many relatives and friends seem to think, is NOT a hotel.

My household rule is generally that downstairs, the kitchen, dining room, half bath and a sitting room (parlor, living room or den) are kept clean for visitors. Everything upstairs, they are not invited to see and it's kept a bit messy. I used to clean it all scrupulously every time someone was visiting, but then I got many not-so-welcome visitors who would drop by and assume that my house was their personal free hotel whenever they were in town--never at my convenience or by invitation. That got old.

there is a difference between dirty and lived in..

dirty..
when you go to use your friends washroom and you need to bring your own Lysol wipes to wipe the toilet seat and the floor cause her 12 year old son refuses to lift the seat and he pees on the seat, the floor or what ever happens to be in the path. No joke I was at her place once and i was using the washroom and when i stood up to pull my pants up, my pants were soaked with urine from her son!

I try to make a a salad in her kitchen (we were having a pot luck bbq) and i have to move dishes from dinner 4 nights ago.


Lived in...
my DD bathtub toys are still in the tub from last nights bath
clean laundry in a basket on the steps waiting to go upstairs
tooth paste in the bathroom sink at noon

oo and i cant forget my fave...chickens in the diningroom

my silkies that i bought at an auction are in my brooder in my dining room as a make shift quarantine

Rosalind; unfortunatly my aunt is one of those types.. we were outside one day attending goat births and DA (D is for dingy) decided to stop by.
She entered the house, made her way upstairs, ate some food from our fridge, ate the bars on the counter, looked through the mail, and emptied our garbage. My mom gets in and my aunt was all 'Oh, I think I'll clean your house for you today!' and my mom said that she just clean and my aunt pointed out that she had emptied the garbage, and my mom said it was too windy to burn so she had left it, then my aunt went on about how the bars would be better if they weren't burnt, even though no one said she had to eat them, and they were only a little crispy on one side. Some people..

haha toys are ALWAYS in my tub clean laundry is ALWAYS laying around (unless people are coming over..that at know of...but I live so far out no one ever just drops in. I had chickens in the house but they got too messy for my boyfriend.

Question: Why do short haired dogs shed more hair EVERYWHERE than any of my longhairs used to? I swear, my smooth (double coated BC X Kelpie sheds a whole puppy's worth of hair daily in my bedroom. God love him. It looks like he has a new litter of pups every day.
(Oh yeah, if I do get a surprise guest, dirty laundry or whatever goes into my shower, then I have the guests use the kids' bathroom. It's a bathroom shared by two teenaged girls - enter at your own risk)

IDK! Short haired dogs do shed ALOT!!

I never thought to stuff it in the shower...I have clear doors though.
I just stack it in a corner and put a towel over it to make it not look so bad lol​
