Yes, it is time for another goofy MPD poll. Today we are going to find out who we really are when it comes to keeping house and taking care of the homestead.

So be honest and tell us what is going on in your abode. How big is your house? How often do you clean? How often do you do the bed linens? Do the clothes pile up or do you keep things put away?

MPDland stays pretty darn clean. Mrs. MPD has never been a housekeeper - that has always been up to me. Before she got sick with COPD she would do laundry and keep the kitchen fairly clean, but now all of that has devolved to me. I keep a clean and neat house, but I'm not a neat freak. I keep the clothes put away and I'm not as good on the bed linens. I have to admit that we only change them every two weeks, but that's not the end because we don't have sex anymore, so it's not like the sheets are semen stained and nasty with funk. (Is this too much information?)

The house is a little over 4,000 square feet and I clean it a couple of times a week to stay on top of things and generally do laundry every 3 days.

That's me. What about you?

What about you?

when i walk out of the door people are spitting in front of me, permanently
its like once you notice it it doesnt stop, not that its so bad.. but its some attitude which i get mad about,
utterly respect less..nothing against when you have a runny nose and are ill and no tissue
but people here just do it because they are used to express their lack of manners which was
derived by the society which spits on it all, lack of happiness, lack of success, expression of filth

people throwing their empty cigarette and other packets, food rests out of the car, at the same time complaining
about people walking 2 meters next to the pedestrian crossing while its actually law to treat the crossing 5 meters before
and after as a safety crossing.

dogs are running all over the place pissing at every car, bicycle, houses, benches,
leaving heaps of shit in the middle of the boardwalks turning the once with channelization (sewage) fought for hygienic streets
back into cloacas making it impossible to concentrate at other people or enjoying the walk having to watch the floor permanently
for land mines.. at least here where i live!!!

maybe its really a good idea i just sell my toilet for a good meal which i can shit into the park again
just here close to where i live. i dont care then anymore about people looking stupid, the dogs do the same y shall i not either!!!
is that artificial dogs stuff which they eat any more hygienic then the brown stuff coming out of my ass?

my girlfriends has a dog he shakes himself clear of fur every once in a while, cute dog besides that he is super selfish and believes
it all belongs to him haha, i can be as angry as i want, but she would not clean it regularly, the dog for sure neither so i have
those nasty ugly hair all over my breakfasts and dinners, i am sleeping in them and have then in my underpants
i am living in this stuff it doesnt make me happy, cleaning the floors for her just that i can walk barefoot from time to time
which i love so much not having to have to scrape of tons of hair dust and stones which the dog brought into the flat
which i try to keep tidy in those matters...

but at the same time i have pyramids of chunk clocking up my desk.. old glasses, tins and cups full of rests and mold
i guess i am not that clean after all either.. so i guess there is always something which we are precise about
and other things which we rather give a shit about...

but at least we all say.. shit happens... whatever that means

Laboratory is clean and sterile. Cleaned daily.
Office is messy however everything has a place. (empty desk:empty mind) Cleaned weekly.
Growing areas are neat and clean. Cleaned every other day.

Don't be ashamed if you have a cluttered desk!

Oh, God. The desk in my office is never neat! I love my office though. The dogs lay in there with me all day on work days and we listen to great tunes and talk to clients. It really works for me.

Depends...

When I'm properly medicated on canna-pills... steadily... for at least 3 weeks? I'm a neat and tidy person.

Unmedicated or improperly medicated (just enough to smoke... not enough to make pills) I'm a slob. :(

Medicated? My wife looks at me and says "Who are you??!??" "You're patient with the kid, you have mood control and a great memory and you're keeping the house clean? Where is my husband?" LOL

Talk about chasing a stick.

Stay Safe! :blowbubbles:

At my job, I am highly organized and OCD neat. I can put my hands on whatever I need almost instantly.

At home, it's really good that I married an understanding woman. My den is a dusty disaster area. The rest of the house is neat as a pin due to her efforts, not mine. My den is sort of a colony of slobbiness surrounded by order and light. :biggrin:

Controlled chaos is a good description for most of my work area. My grow area is always neat, but the periphery looks like a bomb went off. When I do clean up I'm extremely anal, it just takes awhile to get to the point of cleaning.

Roomba rules my carpets --- we have 3 house cats and i can't believe how much cat hair it sucks up. Every day. i will never live without a Roomba.

wash my kitchen floor with a sponge every fucking day. no, i'm not obsessive, but my cats live down on the floor and then get into my bed.

I'm a bit of a slob, but when i do things i am a bit OCD, i think that's why i don't get things done, because when i start something it takes me forever to do it.

It sounds like i'm not alone...

Our house is pretty clean, depends on our schedule...if we are working a lot the house might get a little messy but for the most part we share the chores and the house stays clean.
 
Are you a neat freak or a slob?

A dull roar is how I describe my house. Yeah I have some unfolded clothes permanently on the couch, maybe a few dishes in the sink, hell I likely didn't dust this week either. But the sheets are clean, the floors vacuumed, and my kids leave in clean clothes and smelling fresh.
Overall I'm at about an 85% house clean level.
My garage otoh is a mess. Welder cords, torch hoses,other implements of destruction, piles of scraps and projects everywhere.

Slob? I prefer the phrase, "high tolerance for disorder." I'll be priceless when the zombie wars commence.
