I am a Cleaning FREAK!!!


jen wrote: I don't know if it is a nesting thing or what! But I can't stop cleaning! I have been on my hands and knees cleaning the base boards, the windows, mirrors, decorations, etc. Dusting, Shampooing my carpets, cleaning the keys on my keyboard LOL! laugh.gif I even started on the garage and burst into tears because I can't move some things! then I worked on our closet and organized all the clothes according to short sleeve, long sleeve, long sleeve with buttons, sweat shirts, sweaters etc etc..........I am driving myself crazy!!! My DH is trying to tell me that our house IS clean and organized and I am telling him it is a MESS! but I know it is clean, I was cleaning all the time as it was, just not like this!!! Our cats have to eat in the garage now because I can't stand to pick up dried "wet" food off the floor where they eat sloppy....HA! Poor kitties but they are slobs!!!

*Once I am finished with my house, I will travel! laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

Kirstenmumof3 replied: laugh.gif Sounds like nesting to me! I went through this with all 3 of my children, in fact when I went into Labour with Claudia I was putting clothes in the dryer and my water broke! Tell your DH to be patient, it will pass soon! Just don't wear yourself out! laugh.gif

coasterqueen replied: Sounds like nesting to me too wink.gif I love a clean house! LOL!

Maddie&EthansMom replied:

Where in Texas are you? LOL!

I haven't started nesting yet. sad.gif

A few weeks ago I was cleaning out closets, but only b/c I needed room for some things. I just don't have the energy to clean *all* the time like I should be. I love a clean house (and so does DH), but it will have to wait until this baby is born. tongue.gif

jen replied:
I am in Willis about 3 hours away! LOL! I will leave now and bring my new vacuum cleaner!! ha ha!

I even caught myself making a schedule of things I planned on cleaning this week and things that had to be done and a diagram for DH on how I wanted things moved around in the garage!!!!! HA! I have never been so elaborate in planning on how I am going to clean!! HA!

Maddie&EthansMom replied:

Wow! You really aren't that far away! wink.gif

I make schedules all the time...I just don't stick with them. LOL! It's like once I have written it down that is good enough. It really stresses me out when I start thinking about all that needs to be done. emlaugh.gif
