5. I'd never be done if I did it that way! I can have no distractions.
Once I sit down, I might not get back up!! :)

I've gotta finish my deadline. Then I start cleaning.

Yet, what am I doing? Frittering time away on DU.

8. Try to stay away from DU at home.
I waste enough time at work here. LOL.

As for Thanksgiving, the house needn't be clean. I'm going to Ma and Pa's house.

11. Tough Break....LOL.

Just kidding. While it's a pain in the ass to spit shine everything, it's nice to see family. Not to be intrusive, but, is your house really big, or is this doable?

12. It's doable. I never let it get too out of hand.
That would just creep me out too much. There's a limit to how much "texture" I can take.

Two dogs + wood floors at my house = Daily cleaning duty. Hair clumps freak me out.

15. Please do not go there. I'm in the middle of a huge
fight with Mr. Wonderful over "cleaning the house".

I told him this morning he can cook his own Thanksgiving dinner, I'm done.
