By the way, what's Facebook?

The online equivalent of crack cocaine

I found 'clean me' written in the dust on the sideboard!

When things were getting to breaking point with my brother and his ex, he went round the house and wrote the date in some of the dust. She wrote F*** off without the asterixs and left it there when visitors to see. Funnily enough they're not together anymore.

Personally I just thunk it shows the dangers of being 'drunk in charge of the computer'. Next time, put down the mouse and step away from the keyboard Sir.


Or just don't tell anyone

All I'll add to that is; if the people who noticed that housework isn't being done ever bothered to notice when it was being done, they might have someone more willing to do such a boring, thankless task...

Well said!

No-one ever thanks me for cleaning the house, but then no-one ever complains when it isn't done.
No-one ever complains if dinner is later, or compliments me on it when I put a lot of effort in.
No-one thanks me for the laundry, doing the shopping, mowing the lawn. Nothing.

I might as well live on my own....


...Oh, I DO live on my own.

Your diplomatic skills are urgently required in Copenhagen, the Middle East, various hotspots in Africa...

My opinion of housework is that it is always there waiting to be done so why rush.

[Glutton4...]

Nice one Bren! My sentiments exactly LOL

Housework - that's a form of shovelling isn't it ?
(Well I only do it when the floor gets crunchy. )
I blame my housemate, she is no good at housework. We had an agreement, I've told her straight she is responsible but she just whines and farts around, sleeping on the sofa, watching TV all day. I will say, she sweeps a little bit of the floor just before teatime, but only if she is sitting down !
Still, that is golden labradors for you.

I must be the lucky one here!

TOH will comment when the place is a mess - the standard reply is if you can see a problem - deal with it!

That said, if I have been doing housework (and I'll accept that it is rare and should be done more) he notices and comments.

He cooks well too!

Good grief, you are treating her like a child, the poor, poor woman! She is an unpaid slave for goodness sake! She is probably lonely, bored and needing stimulation. Housework is a complete waste of time, its not her making the mess so why don't you and the kids clear up?! I cannot believe I am hearing this rubbish in the year 2009.

Chill, petal - he has seen the error of his ways! And give him credit for sharing - I reckon his Mrs has had a good boost from this thread - let's hope she joins in the forum too!

[petal]

Aah, was he drunk when he wrote it then?

[Jeanied]

Um, I think three sheets to the wind would describe it!!
