Yup. All that slacking off with the kids in the last two weeks was going to catch up with me one day and today was that day. I dropped them off at school this morning and reluctantly returned home to survey the damage all that laziness created.
Of course I hadn’t abandoned all house cleaning while they were on school holidays, I had just been performing at the minimum acceptable level. Unfortunately that meant today I had to go above and beyond to catch up. Bugger….
I’m not saying this was exactly the little voice in my head while I was washing and scrubbing, but it was something pretty close. 😀
Ha, ha, that’s brilliant!
There were a few versions of this song (rant) on youtube but this one was the best. It could have had another verse…. “I HATE VACUUMING!” 😀
It was a great song (rant), yes, I think you add I have vacuuming to that as well LOL!
It’s a cruel life, dragging you back to housework with a bump like that. They should let you be weaned in slowly. xxx Huge Hugs xxx
Absolutely! I think one dish at a time would have been a far better introduction.
lmao – oh this could be my theme song as well!!!!!! Love it. And commiserations, I’ve been trying to catch up on a bit of housework as well. And it sucks.
Yes. Housework sucks. Where are the housework robots The Jetsons promised us?!
Well… I do have my little robomop. 😀 It’s still working just fine. Unfortunately it’s only really good for picking up dust and say a light sprinkling of pet hair.
Believe me, once there’s a bot on the market that will vacuum my floors AND wash them I’ll be first in line to buy one. But I will save a place for you though. I’m nice like that. 😀
Aww, thanks. I bet that queue will be a very long one! I’m glad to hear robomop is still alive, I thought he might have met an untimely end by now…
The first toy robovac I tried didn’t last long. This one though, maybe because it is such a simple design, is still going strong. Love my toys when they work!
Every day laundry doesn’t bother, or dishes but a backlog drives me nuts… I hope it is at least a nice day so you can get the washing dry, and get sidetracked wandering around the garden when hanging it out. I’m not doing much of anything today. Early this morning I leaned over to wipe up a puddle of water that had overflowed from the kettle on the kitchen bench, and put my back out. Having to do nothing at all is so much worse than having to do something, I’ve decided.
Ouch! Poor you, I hope that the cuppa you made from that spilled jug was magnificent, otherwise that back injury is made even worse. 😦
Yes, the sun has been out but sadly its frozen rays are doing very little to dry any washing. I am easily sidetracked though and it takes very little to entice me into the garden.
I hope you have a few good books within reach or there are a lot of good things on tv for you while you are laid up. I hope you feel better soon!
Thanks… patience is not my thing. I hope you are catching up and can put domestic duties aside for more entertaining pursuits.
It doesn’t really take much encouragement for me to dump my housewifely responsibilities and find something more entertaining to do…. 😀
