Now that I’m finally a single man homeowner. I finally get to live my life the way I want to. One of the things I enjoy most is when I come home after a long day at work or a time spent away from home, is that the house is clean.
See, many of my past relationships where unfortunately shared with people who are insanely lazy and do things like:
- not do the dishes
- rarely do any house work
- never do any yard work or help with it
- leave their clothing wherever they land as they come home
- leave food open and on counters, couches or end tables
- leave multiple unfinished drinks laying about
- never cleaning up after themselves
Thus leaving me to do the majority of the work or finally managing to talk them into doing some housework.
I’m the type of fellow that rarely has to all out clean the house. I pick up after myself. I can carry my dirty clothes to the basket a few feet away. I don’t let dishes pile up. I’m capable of putting laundry away shortly after the dryer stops. I clean up anything I spill. If I see dust I take 5 minutes to dust. Etc… These things take mere minutes and it always baffled me why people live in such pig-sty homes. Sadly because I’m a delivery driver, I see so so so many gross homes. Me? I can’t wait for spring so I can get my yard cleaned up (snow hit as I closed on the house so leaves are an issue) and power wash my siding. Would make for a couple of nice sunny afternoons outside. Maybe I can meet some people or lonely ladies in the neighborhood 😁
In short, I’m very happy to come home. Every time. My house is clean and company ready. It’s really not much of an effort if you just take a moment or two to clean up after yourself.
