Have I ever mentioned how much I
HATE CLEANING?!
I love having a clean house.
but I hate cleaning.
(is that an oxymoron?)
I have developed, what I believe, is a subconscious problem.
(even though I wouldn't know about it if it was subconscious....just go with it.)
Cleaning Induced ADD.
I decide to hang up the mountain of clothes I tried on and threw down during the week.
I hang up 2 shirts and find myself laying in the floor.
doing absolutely nothing.
just laying there.
hanging out.
I decide to fold clothes.
I fold 3 wash cloths and then realize I've been on Facebook for an hour.
I decide to wash dishes.
After I scrub a couple of plates,
I decide to find my hubs and give him a hug.
Not a normal 5 second hug,
but an extra long 10 minute hug.
hubs: What, what are you doing?
me: shhhh don't talk. I just love you babe. I just love you so much.
I like to have upbeat music playing when I'm cleaning,
but after listening to it for a few minutes,
I start dancing around and trying to do every dance move I've ever seen on VH1.
I put a load of clothes in the washing machine
decide it's time to give myself a mani/pedi
and 24 hours later I realize I forgot to put them in the dryer.
Sometimes I rewash them;
but most of the time I just put them in the dryer with a bunch of dryer sheets..
you know,
in attempt to cover up the sour smell that I deny I smell.
I will admit though,
I have done better with the clothes washing.
Because a couple of weeks ago,
Tyler came home from work
and had this conversation with me:
hubs: Babe...I was really busy today. I had a lot of people going in and out of my office.
long pause
me: ok?
hubs: All day, I thought that everyone who came in smelled bad. Like sour feet.
me: ...
hubs: but when I was in my truck...by myself....I smelled it.
me: ...
hubs: you know why? Because my shirt is sour. I was smelling myself all day.
I leaned over and smelled him.
me: ...I wonder how that happened...
hubs: ...............
My name is Autumn,
and I have a problem.

Cleaning Induced ADD... Yeah... That's what it is. A medical condition! Thank you! ;-) -Marci @ Stone Cottage Adventures
bahaha i can so relate! this is me all the time - and then i have to do a 4 hr long cleaning sesh right before we have guests over. it's ridiculous.
since don't have our own washer/dryer it's been a while since i've dealt with the sour clothes issue. however, i have been known to not do laundry for weeks and then my husband comes home and says "babe, i ran out of clean work shirts".....and then i hand wash 1 or 2 in the sink just to get me through the week lol
I think this is a legitimate disease. because I experience all these symptoms every time I clean.
Yay!!! I'm so glad I'm not the only one that suffers from this =) hahaha...your posts always make me smile!

HAHA, I know the smell because I also forget to hang out the clothes sometimes! I always have to re-wash them though because sadly, it's usually my clothes that smell like that and I can't stand it!
Haha - been there, smelt that! I hate cleaning, too. And what's worse is that now we are in a teeny tiny apartment, and I'm still a slob. WE are still just as messy as we were in that big ol' house we lived in for the first 10 months. I was hoping that moving into a smaller place would give me more motivation to clean, but no such luck.
What's the treatment, doc?
Hah... this is too funny!
