I loathe vacuuming to the point that when we bought our house, I had tile floors installed throughout.0

Kill the person who is making you vacuum... But seriously do you *have* to? Lower your standards, woman, and welcome to the world of once a week vacuuming!
We have laminate floors mostly though and my kids are a bit older now (11 and nearly 9). Used to have to do it about every other day.

I'm so glad my husband vacuums. I didn't really realize I never did it until he posted a picture of me on Facebook that said it was the first time he'd ever seen me operate a vacuum cleaner... and it was after having lived together for more than 3 years. Oops.

I don't mind washing, drying, folding, and sorting. But putting away? That *kitten*'s for the birds!0 -

Ha! I was just thinking last night that I wish someone else would vacuum my house. And I have wall-to-wall carpeting!

I'm terrible about vacuuming - usually only in time for our quarterly inspections!! (Low income rental property, so state mandated...LOL).0

... work up the enthusiasm for driving 4+ hours this Friday and Sunday. That drive suuuucks.0

Bahahaha I'm there with you. I've lowered my standards until I sit down and realize how dirty my house is. And when I say dirty I'm looking at the laundry basket on the floor, the blankets and pillows used to make a fort, and socks galore, I think there is a shooting match going on behind my back with dirty socks. Not so bad now but gonna suck when we have to wear socks again. lol

My poor fish would appreciate it if I did a partial water change for them, but I've been going all day like the energizer sunny bunny and have to finish work before they get a clean tank. They don't understand are I think they are giving me the stink eye.0

I've been trying to figure out how to fit a cleaning service into my budget, LOL. Even once a month so I can have a week off.0

Hahaaaa Sajyana! You vaccuum sucks up your soul!! Wow! That is one powerful vaccuum!! Mine barely gets all the dog hair! Not sure I want to switch brands for your though.DebraWilliams1 wrote: »I've been trying to figure out how to fit a cleaning service into my budget, LOL. Even once a month so I can have a week off.
I hear you! I rent three of our 4 bedrooms to students. Allows us to live on our income, but MAN ALIVE they do not clean and it's hard to keep up with them. I'm trying to figure out the same thing. Maybe bartering? Do you have a skill or something you like to do that they might trade for? that is quite a thing now adays around here. lol... although... I put that out there and have not investigated it myself. Gah! I'm too busy sweeping and cleaning crap off the counters! lmao!0 -
I haven't vacuumed in like a fortnight. Our house is mostly tiled so I sweep the kitchen but Spring is here and the cat is molting everywhere and we've had a couple of parties. It really needs to be done because there's another party on the weekend. My daughter is having a dessert bar party for her birthday.
I would SO swap doing laundry for the vacuuming. Seriously! You have a deal.
Netflix? I wish. I'm in Australia with the freaking slowest internet. I tried streaming Netflix. It keeps stopping to buffer and the sound doesn't keep up with the pictures. *sigh*
I didn't vacuum. I baked instead. Then tidied up, then looked around the net for the cost of building a gaming pc, then played Candy Crush and tried to fix the shower head. God, I hate vacuuming. I must do it today though.0 -
I gave up on cleaning, I swear the time it takes me to clean from one end of the house to the other is precisely how long it takes spider webs and dust to re accumulate.0
-
Not much of a house cleaner either. I just wait until its really dusty and use a leaf blower. It works well0
-
Gave up on the vacuuming and got myself a Roomba. Love that thing!0
-
I've drooled over the robo vacs. How well do they work?0
-
I hate toilet cleaning. As the only female in the house, I get miffed that I'm the one who cleans up.0

I love mine. I have her scheduled to run automatically every day downstairs on the laminate floors, and I pick her up and cart her upstairs every other day or so and turn her loose on the carpeting. She gets tangled up with a cat toy every so often, and I make sure there are no electrical cords in her path. Keeps me in the habit of having no clutter lying around, and the best part is she fits under the sofa!
I still get out the big vacuum for the stairs and baseboards and some tight spots she can't get into, but I love not coming home to cat-hair-tumbleweed every day!

I had a Roomba several years ago, and it got an incredible amount of cat hair than my central vac missed. Had to spent a lot of time cutting the hair out of the brushed though. Very expensive but it worked great for couple of years and I was very happy with it then the battery stopped holding a charge. My wife had got one for the carpet in her office, same story, 2 years later it became run down and too tired to work. I also got a cheaper model Rumba for my basement workshop, good for it getting under machinery where I could not get a regular vacuum. After 2 years the computer caused it to tun in circles and/or randomly turn off in inaccesable spaces and become useless.
We ended up replacing the carpet in the house with wood flooring. my wife pays someone to come in and do her office and waiting room and I move the machinery in my basement to vacum under.0 -
Errr... I'm completely okay with cleaning. I'd rather have a clean house/room than a dirty one. Now if you help me find a place for all my fricken books that'd be amazing! I have a huge collection of books0

I have several thousand, but I'm on a campaign to give away anything I haven't looked at for 5 years and every time I buy a new book, 5 have to leave. Gave away over a hundred yesterday. I've run out of spaces for new bookshelves.mcpostelle wrote: »Errr... I'm completely okay with cleaning. I'd rather have a clean house/room than a dirty one.
