[personal profile] sapote has made a disturbing discovery about housework:

The thing is that my usual technique for dealing with life issues is not particularly suited towards housework, because things that do not work with housework:
- making a chart of chores that need doing and the intervals that they need doing in
- making a diagram of different chores and the equipment needed
- writing an essay about chores and how they make me feel

The only thing that works is being at my house, during an appropriate hour, with bleach and paper towels and actually doing the chore until it is done. Bluh. This seems like it can't possibly be accurate.

Context is locked. QWP.

MADNESS AND DEVILTRY.

It's like discovering that the only thing I can do with my computer to help me get up and do work is shutting its lid. This is quite off-putting.

I know! Why the hell have they released all these expensive, inconvenient updates & not fixed the problem?!? I don't understand why there isn't a big hubbub across the Internet about it....

Spot on! :D What I find also upsetting about housework is that it doesn't stay *done*! I do it, and then the next day, a few days later, a week later... I have to do it *again*! Grrr!

Yes! I just did the dishes, and then I had dinner and now there are more dishes! That's not how it works!
