My House

My house is a home because...
 
You can tell its been lived in...seriously. so what if it's mega cluttered and a bit messy, but that's what makes it our home. Someday it frustrates me that its not perfect, that its not spotless, but its okay. This is us, and this is our home.

Clean Sweep

Do you like to clean or do you wish you had a maid? Why?

If I have enough time to really dig in and clean, I really don’t mind it. However, I wouldn’t complain if we had a maid. Who doesn’t want to have to clean up their own messes. But I really don’t mind cleaning, I’m just too lazy to do it sometimes. Plus I always think, “I’m at work for six hours, I don’t want to spend my down time cleaning!” So if I have a day off from work (Saturdays and Sundays don’t count), then I don’t mind spending the morning cleaning.

Clutter

What part of your home has the most clutter? How can you de-clutter?

My whole house is pretty cluttered, but the room that is the most cluttered is the side room. I don't think it's ever been NOT cluttered since we moved in. I mean massively cluttered...like there are little 'paths' to the important things. Try to get in the back corner...nearly impossible.

How can I de-clutter? Kick my husband out of the house....haha, kidding, but really, a lot of the stuff is his. He doesn't like to throw stuff away, and I don't like throwing stuff away without his permission (unless he isn't here and it isn't HIS stuff), then I don't mind. I tell him that when we get a real house, I'll give him a room where he can stash and store whatever he wants, and I won't say a word. But it's all right. I don't think I'd know what to do if my house WASN'T cluttered...

Bathtub

What do you like best about your home?

We have been in this trailer for the past nearly 8 years, and it's been a good home for us. Sure it's given me a few (LOT) of gray hairs, but it's been a good starter home. I would have to say that my favorite part about it is our tub in the master bath. That thing is HUGE. There is a step to get down into it (which has been nice, since I know have the joints/muscles/bones of an 80 year old woman.) It's nice to be able to lay down and just relax after a long day of work. I will admit that I will definitely miss that tub when/if we ever move. My dream home will have a massive tub for sure!

Dream Room

If you could design a room in your house to suite only your needs, what would it look like?

Good question. I’ve always been obsessed with scrapbooking, so my room would be full of scrapbook supplies. Floor to ceiling shelves of papers, stickers, etc. Even though I don’t do much traditional scrapbooking, it will still be full of stuff to do it. I will also have a new mac on a cute little desk with an awesome printer in case I wanted to do a bit of hybrid scrapping. Basically just an awesome room where I can go to scrap in peace. Oh, and it'd have an endless supply of 'snacks' (aka junk food) and awesome music!

Clean or Not?

On a scale of 1-10, how clean is your house? (10 being the cleanest)

Well, it all depends on what you consider "clean". If you mean like super sparkly, shiny clean...then -5. But if you're basing the scale on an average person's house, I'd go with -4. Just kidding. I'd say like 5? Haha. Our house isn't really dirty. Like, it's not one of those you walk into and cringe, and find ways to cover your nose without being obvious (at least in my opinion!) Sure it's super cluttered (thank you Greg), but it's not gross dirty. We vacuum, wash dishes, take out garbage, etc. This is a tough one...
