"C - Chore you hate: I've gotten much more sanguine about all chores since I started "unfucking", but I refuse to dust."

I'm also unfucking my habitat, it is very slow going but I am making progress, which is hard because of my 13 year old boy... Currently his stuff is across 50% of the dining table... oh well he is very artistic. :)

I bought two things to make me happier about dusting. 1, which is boring but awesome in its own way, is those green microfiber dusting cloths, which can be washed, and they hold the dust so that it doesn't fly around and get up your nose. 2, which is only awesome, is this amazing good smelling organic polish that I get at my local organic store. It has essential oils of lemongrass and lime and I spray it on purpose it smalls so good. :D Howard Naturals Wood Cleaner and Polish.... so now many of my downstairs surfaces are dustfree, which is a great thing for me because of my dust allergy which wars against my love of *things*. Dusting has moved out of the intensely hated list of chores into the weekly enjoyment of taking care of my things and smelling a very good smell. :D

Happy 40s, beautiful!! :)

I have gotten so much out of ufyh. It's helped me keep my house cleaner than I have ever kept a house in my life, and it also helped a lot when I moved with both getting rid of a ton of stuff, and packing up what I kept. I am fortunately not allergic to dust, and have hardly any things. I have a texture issue that won't allow me to touch microfiber cloths, though my mother swears by them as well. but something that smells good might help when I do need to dust the few things I do have :D

I know some people hate these, but I love them. You find a lot out about people from these! I'll be doing mine in a moment

Breakfast is always fab, even if it is cereal!!!

Thanks

if I had to give up all foods but one for the rest of my life, the one I'd keep would be cereal. Though I do love cooking breakfast food, too. om nom nom.

:D

mmmmmm, gumbo.

I never had it until very recently, and knew I had to learn to make it! though many would complain it's not really gumbo as I don't put okra in, but whatever. idgaf. okra is gross and also really hard to come by in the pacific north west.

hi, lady! hi! <33333

I've been on it for a while, but I was on pink for almost seven years, so we'll see how purple fares compared to that :D Before pink it was red and before that orange, but they only lasted a bit over a year each.
