Just a quick note this morning! If I could have kept this house as clean and orderly with everything fixed and painted, I would never have wanted to sell it and go on an adventure.
But, at least for me, keeping any house clean isa full time job. I just don't know how some people do it.
I have a sister who has a perfect house. No husband, but a perfect house. I would rather be me.

Amen to that!
ReplyDeleteI didn't get to see your last post..."a funny thing happened on the way to the signing" ....that post never showed up on my computer!
I think that is the hardest part of selling a house..keeping it 'show ready'. I didn't get to read your last post either. I can see it on the reading list..the first paragraph at least..but when I open it to read, it just says it's not there :(
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, I never liked housekeeping. Did a lot of it when I was a kid. There were 5 kids and we did all of the housework as soon as we were able. So now I don't like to do it.
ReplyDeleteYour house is probably messy because of all the jobs and repairs and painting, etc. you guy are doing - both inside and outside. It would be really hard, if not impossible, to keep up with that.
ReplyDeleteWhen I had houses for sale, it was always a pain to keep them perfect all the time and I'm a real neatnik. It's such a relief when the buyers sign the papers and you can relax a bit. :)
I had the same problem with your last post. It had such an intriguing title, but alas, I couldn't read it. What happened at the showing?
ReplyDeleteI am not into housekeeping. Wasn't when I had a house and still am not one now in the fiver. It's just not high on my list of priorities. Spent a lot of my life apologizing for that and feeling bad about myself. But not anymore. I am happy with myself and life is much more pleasant that way. When I met Harry it all just came together so easily - we each have our areas that we take care of - and vacuuming etc. is on Harry's list. :) Works out great for both of us. I do other things that he doesn't like to do, like cleaning out the litter box and washing dishes.
ReplyDeleteI also am intrigued by the title of your last post, and wondering what it was all about...????
What Jessica said!! I just have so many other things I would rather be doing than cleaning the house.
ReplyDeleteMe neither - couldn't read your post. I can't even keep this small fifth wheel clean. So glad I don't have to worry about a house to sell.
ReplyDeleteWaste of time! There are so many rewarding activities, aren't there? I doubt anyone on her deathbed ever said, "I wish I could scrub that floor one more time".
ReplyDeleteThat is what hired help is for. Have them keep things up....
