Don't make sense to me either but, as Jeri says, JUST DO IT!

Saves a lot of hassle in the long run.

You may as well give up Bobert... these here Mudcatters seems ta be agin ya on principle rather than fact.

I got one. My x useta say I should pitch in more (I did laundry, cookin, vacuuming, mopping, dishes... you name it... AND I, ME, MOIS, JIMMY SUIS, did the buildin, fixin, tree cuttin, snow shovelin... I even paid for and fixed stuff she broke after I told her not to do what she was doin on accounta it would break what she was doin it to.) so I would ask her "what"? When I got, "I dunno, look around.", I shoulda known she would be an x.

All that supposition above makes me wonder what the hell you all womenz are thinkin when you say Bobert oughta do the job he's payin ta have done.

Did I miss sommat?

Set your broken nose when P-Vine hears how you are talking out of school about her closet.
Have you lost your mind?

Well, sheet fire, folks...

I do pick up my stuff and put it away... The P-Vine, on the other hand is an olympic trained clutterer... Ya'll oughtta see here desk or her closet... Then we make the same deal every time we get the dining room table uncluttered that "we'll" keep it that way... Then two weeks go by and it filled again with...

...you guessed iT... Her stuff!!!

But seriously, she had me vacuumin' this morning... Ain't that fall in the category of cleanin'??? And she wants mne to, ahhhhh, dust her clutter this weekend??? I mean, for gosh sakes!!! Clean clutter??? What am I missing here???

I know, "Just do it and shut the heck up, Boberdz!!!"

And, yes, I did go to Massanutten and we had inpsections once a week and then pop inspections now and then and yer stuff had to be put away and clean all the time...

But I am wonderin' what this cleaning women is gonna do if the P-Vine works my boney fingers to the bone cleaning for the next week???

B~

Go figure, mine makes me make up the bed and clean up the room when we are on vacation and in a hotel room .... "can't leave it looking like that for the maid, what would they think"


somehow the logic eludes me but my advice is to say "Good Idea"
and just do it as Jeri said LOL

I once had a live-in cleaning lady - she was homeless; I wasn't wealthy.
She cleaned and cleaned and cleaned. And when she wasn't cleaning she was cooking.
So she decided to arrange the kitchen according to her needs - I am still looking for a beloved bowl and a certain spatula.
By the way, Bobbie, how many spatulas do you own?

Like Claire said.

Our cleaner can be counted on to put anything left on the kitchen counter in the oddest possible places, so the kitchen must be tidy before she comes. Likewise shoes and boots left in the front hall -- if I don't put them where they belong, she will stash them. If I ever find them again, it's purely by accident.

Besides, I want the cleaner to spend her time doing the stuff I hate to do and don't have time for -- i.e., vacuuming and washing floors, and scrubbing bathroom fixtures. That means doing the tidying up myself.

Not that I expect you are looking for a serious answer, but way back when I could afford such a thing as a cleaning person (long time ago now), I learned that you don't want them putting your stuff away or sorting stuff for you, or you're liable to lose track of things you love or need. (I had to go through the trash after one decided to get rid of all the little jewelry boxes I kept on my bureau. Another one tended to throw out bills with the junk mail. A third completely ignored all the things that really needed cleaning and did my dishes for me, leaving them to drain on some fancy paper napkins I'd bought for the party I was about to give, all carefully unfolded and laid across every surface in my kitchen.)

You want them to clean (scrub, vacuum, polish...), not tidy, which means they have to be able to get to the surfaces in your house without being distracted by clutter...which means YOU have to tidy.

Drag, isn't it?

Bobert, if you are like MY husband, you have piles of 'Stuff' sitting around. Do you want the WIMMEN to deal with it? Bin it, hide it, 'put it away', etc? If not, GO DO IT!

Seems like I mighta asked this before but if I did I don't remember the answer...

Here's the situation... The P-Vine has found a woman to come in and do housework a couple times a month... The problem is that at 6 o'clock this mornin' the P-Vine woke me up with a demand that I start doing housework for the lady who is going to be here next week??? I don't undertand this logic...

I mean, if we are payin' this woman to do housework then how comes I gotta do it before she gets here???

Can ya'll womenz answer me that simple question???

Por favor...

Bobert
