Topic: ONEROUS (03/02/17)
Whenever I come home from work, I usually find dishes in the sink, so I end up doing them. I feel that it is a burden for me, but it has to be done sooner or later.



Whenever I take food out the fridge some of the stuff falls on the shelves, and I find that very tiresome. Sometimes I have trouble closing the fridge door, so I have to slam it shut. I get angry when I am in a situation like that. I curse and swear under my breath when I accidentally spill stuff on the floor. I end spending 5 or 10 minutes cleaning it up. It took about 15 to clean up the syrup off the floor after I spilled it on the floor.



I don't like cleaning bathrooms especially toilets. When my husband forgets to put the toilet seat up, then I have to clean the seat. I find it a challenge to clean out all the dirt out the bathtub.



Whenever I go to church, I can focus on the bible. During that time, I don't think so much about the chores at home. Also when I attend the YMCA, I can focus on swimming laps or aquafit in the pool

I can certainly identify with the challenges of never-ending housework.
It looked like you hadn't finished the article or something went amiss when you were submitting it?

You categorically state your feelings about chores that many will relate to.

It certainly nails the topic!

Blessings~

This has a good foundation and some great points. I'd love to see you go farther. Even the most horrible tasks. We don't always see the blessings in them, but if we serve God first, others second, and ourselves last our blessings will be overflowing for sure. Nice message.

Congratulations on your 2nd place win in the Beginners category this week, Cheryl.

I can relate with the frustration you shared in your story. Sometimes I wish I could just hire a cleaning service.
