Cleaning

This May Or May Not Come As A Shock To You All..

But Glen Uses A "Strap-On"....

Yes You Guessed, I Was Refering To A Back-Vac.!!.(dirty minds.)

Does Anybody Else Here Use A "Strap-On".

I Think Their Great.

No Draging Some Cumbersome Cleaner Behind You.

Hitting And Damaging Your Furniture..

Wherever You Go, It Goes Too.

Just Thought I'd Share That With Youlls...

DING.!! Methinks, I Think I Hear The Bell For Round Nine..:lurk5:..



Cheers Glen.

 

That's awesome. It sounds like you both have some great qualities. I am someone who needs praise all the time. I need it for everything from peopel I love. Andy's family is the opposite, they never give out praise, besides telling me how good I am for Andy, that they love me like I am related to them and that stuff.
But like, when I sew them things for gifts, I don't hear that it was nice or anything. Finally after mother's day I got a thank you card from my MIL because I sent everyone on my list a handmade gift package with handmade soap and candles and bath salts and washcloths. But it wasn;t that they were pretty or nice, no raves like my family gave, just a simple thanks. It's not that they're mean or don;t appreciate my gifts, it's just that they are very religious and reserved people who don't like a lot of praise or attention for what they do for others.
Andy was the same way when I met him. He never thanked me for anything, but he was appreciative. He learned to say thank you when he is feeling appreciative and connect that word with that feeling (which is actually really hard if people weren;t raised that way) and I've learned to let it go when he forgets and remember why he doesn;t say it.
Your going to be okay Adam, both of you are. Just remember that this is for the long haul and childish games, prpving your worth to each other, all of that doesn;t matter. Your kiddo is the one who matters and you not fighting around the kids especially.
I don;t have kids, but I can imagine it would be very difficult to not fight around them.
Fitzy can tell you though, that we both run a tight ship and if people don;t immediatley give me their comments on my food (for culinary, own recipe type stuff-not like simple stuff, that stuff Id on't care), I will go ape shit. Neither one of us really stands for disrespect from one another and we are appreciative of what we do for each other.
but it took awhile to get there. before we got married I was a bitch. I can honestly say I wasn;t a good partner. I spent all the money, racked up the cars, bitched at everything, was mad when Andy worked too much. Learning to effectivley communicate and give what the other needs takes time.
I can tell you one thing though, if you go to family counseling, they almost always take the man's side. They're not going to make either of you feel bad, they are going to build you up as individuals and together.

 

my room is pretty much always a big mess. clothes everywhere, shoes everywhere, books and blankets and pillows and papers and everything everywhere. it`s more cozy that way
but i don`t like any kind of dirt and dust!!! it can be very , very messy but always clean

 

I hate those backpack vac's. They don't seem any more efficient than a normal vac and for some reason I have to lug the weight around on my back instead of rolling it around on wheels? WTF?

We have an older model, and you can find 'em cheaper. But that's my preference when it comes to sweepers.

 

I can also tell you, this isn't about a clean house-no way. I don't know what it is about, but it's not the house.

 

I don't care wtf it's about. It never should've been posted here. That's childish and petty.

Some people have no sense of privacy or decency maybe?

 

Every couple of months I cleans house to get back some organization.

 

I am sorry about so much of it getting out in the 'public' but I was just trying to vent it out, I usually find confort from people here, it was not an intentional attack to you at all, it wasn't even to be meen or snotty. I'm just frustrated with it.

When you were gone I was actually talking good about how YOU do things around the house... but you only seen the bad part of things that aren't done.

 

Yea, I semi clean things here and there, but I usually have to take a day to do more detailed cleaning though....

When I'm upset I clean, it keeps me occupied and takes stress off my mind. it's kinda like theropy. haha

 

i enjoy a clean house but i hate cleaning- it's quite an issue sometimes.

 

Cleanliness with people and places.Absolutely 1 million % important.

Altho I've never cleaned a house myself.
Not wishing to be sexist, but guys cleaning houses sounds a bit gay..

 

what? your mom still picking up after you?

 

it depends whos stopping by..
Currently my house smells like a skunk..
