BillyVance 34 #3 April 5, 2013 Quote I'd say, remove this post if you ever want to get laid again. Just get a roomba, throw your dirty clothes directly in the hamper and not on the floor, dishes go straight into the dishwasher instead of the sink, etc... In short, don't create bigger cleaning jobs.

JohnMitchell 16 #9 April 5, 2013 Quote I hate housework!! I just can't get motivated to do anything Maybe a touch depressed? Seriously, you've gone thru a lot of changes recently. Keeping a squared away place is mostly developing habits, IMHO. Like Billy said, put stuff away as you use it and it tends to stay cleaner. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just can't get motivated to do anything and right now I can't afford a cleaning lady like I used to. What to do??? Nothing. It's your place, live anyway you want. It's your dust/dirt/clutter, and if you don't mind living in it, then go right ahead. When it bothers you to the point of wanting it gone, you'll get rid of it.
