Houses are a lot of work!

Posted by on Mar 31 2008 | my house

I haven’t gotten around to posting anything here for a long time!  I’ve been way too busy trying to keep my house clean, which is no easy task!  Sheer clutter and dirt aren’t my only problems.  It seems like if you live in a house long enough it may start to self-destruct on you!  This doesn’t necessarily have to be anything serious, just annoying and time consuming.  For instance, I think that just about every light bulb in my house has burnt out in the past month!  What’s up with that?  And some have even been those supposed long lasting bulbs- nothing lasts long around here.  Also, the island in my kitchen can’t manage to stay together anymore.  The continual beating it takes from little feet day in and day out has finally proven to be too much, and now I have resorted to affixing the corner trim piece with masking tape until my husband can get around to fixing it with something more permanent.  Yes, I could do it myself, but I’m way to busy dusting, vacuuming, mopping floors, wiping things down, and cleaning toilets.  Speaking of toilets… is is just me or do they purposefully make the seats out of cheap plastic that stains so easily that you are forced to replace them every couple of years?  Really, I do clean toilets often, and yet the stains always appear anyways.  And that’s just the tip of the iceberg!  Houses are a lot of work.  And don’t even get me started on yards!
