Company will be here in a few hours. Why am I online instead of cleaning the house???

[GreenPartyVoter]

It didn't help that I spent this morning (Well, not the scratching part. At least, I don't think I did.)

Somebody send me vibes of cleaning energy and super speed! LOL

[PoliticAverse]

1. Sounds like you just need a Dynamic Industrial Renovating Tractormajigger. n/t

[GreenPartyVoter]

10. Yes. Yes I do!

[intaglio]

2. Because your house is diferently clean (and tidy) n/t

[GreenPartyVoter]

11. I think most people would agree with that. LOL

[siligut]

3. Look at the tasks individually, not as a whole

Looking at the whole job is what is overwhelming. Do the things you least dislike first. And . . . just vacuuming can make all the difference.

Plus, and I know it is weird, extra sleep can tire you out.

[GreenPartyVoter]

12. Yeah, I did a list for each room and have been crossing things off all week. But I still

played around and left too much for the last day. Oh well, it's looking and smelling pretty decent now.

And I know about too much sleep being bad, but it never feels bad when you're doing it.

[fizzgig]

4. because you're like me

i often need a boot to the butt when i have to start cleaning.

[GreenPartyVoter]

13. Yep. Husband wants to know why I never clean like this for us. LOL

[Brigid]

29. Tell him he knows where the vacuum cleaner is.

[GreenPartyVoter]

30. Teehee!

[Lokey]

5. When you find that energy

Send some this way. I keep thinking about it--then I open the laptop again. Gotta get going shortly otherwise the stress will set in.

[GreenPartyVoter]

14. I have done what I am gonna do, so here's the last burst of my energy! *zoom*

*insert superhero smiley here*

6. I cleaned the house yesterday! Then the 1yo and 6yo conspired

and now I have to do it all over again within 2.5 hours. See ya later, good luck!!!

[GreenPartyVoter]

15. This is why I don't clean kid areas until the end. I waited until both

of mine had showered and brushed before tackling their bathroom.

Hope you got things straightened out before company came, and that you got good help from the little ones. I miss those days, when cleaning was still a fun game to them. Teenagers just whine their way through everything.

[Paulie]

20. Yep, made it in time.

But, now thr little ones helped trash the house again and tomorrow at 7am I have a 2 hour round trip to pick up my mom for her turn (my inlaws were owner today).

My 6yo is practicing for teenagerhood now... Wish there was that much effort on piano.

Calgon, help a brother out and take me away!

[GreenPartyVoter]

23. LOL

[nolabear]

7. Because you want to go where nobody knows your name.

And you ARE company. Merry Christmas, GPV.

[GreenPartyVoter]

16. Heheh I like that! *hugs* Merry Christmas to you as well!

[LiberalEsto]

8. Serve them some kind of Special Holiday Punch immediately

They'll never notice a thing.

[GreenPartyVoter]

17. This would be the perfect plan except that they don't drink.

[A Simple Game]

9. Because the ones that don't care won't see the dirt, and the ones that do

will find some no matter how well you clean.

Relax and enjoy the holidays.

[GreenPartyVoter]

18. Ain't that the truth. Thanks for the reminder, and you have a great holiday as well!

[leftyladyfrommo]

19. Cleaning is such a waste of time.

The dust and stuff always just come back and then you have to start all over.

Better to just except it and spend your life doing better things.

[Paulie]

21. If ya let it go in this house

You're stepping on Lego bricks and cereal. It's just not comfortable to walk the house with steel toe slippers.

[GreenPartyVoter]

24. Generally, I do that, but every 3 or 4 months I feel like I need to clean up. Usually

when I start walking into the cobwebs.

[libodem]

22. You tell me

And well both know. I have a du addiction. Must taper off.

[GreenPartyVoter]

25. I have a DU, Facebook, and Cheezburger addiction.

[Brigid]

26. You're here because you love us.

[GreenPartyVoter]

27. But of course!

[LiberalFighter]

28. You aren't cleaning cause it will get messy again.

[GreenPartyVoter]

31. It already has. *sigh*
