It's a ton of house bro. Lots to consider there...not just the extra cost of replacing things, but just the simple act of cleaning it all.
Money solves that problem. :troywax:

3,000 sq/ft is a ton of house. At least that's what the link that :dubshow: posted lists it at.

:haus: is gorgeous doe, 5/7 dig it. Just be wary of the commitments in upkeep. Your :crotchfruit: would love growing up in that place too.

I hate cleaning the house. I do it because I have to, but I really hate it. There's so many other things I'd rather do. Our house is way too big for us at 2,500 sq ft, I can't imagine adding another 500 to that...then :baby: :baby: on top of that.

But if that's your thing, then right on man. House looks pretty stellar, and it's certainly something you wouldn't grow out of ever.

Ask a neighbor who they use. If a cleaning lady can add you to the same day they're in the neighborhood anyway doing someone else's :haus: might get you a small break on their rate.

No. The money move is all of you morons realizing that since you can reject crotchfruit so easily, it is but a small step to also reject fucking dogs and cats, but it seems like none of you motherfuckers can connect A to B. No need for a "petsitter" and you have to clean 1/4 as much, unless you are a complete pig.

So we cast aside the black irons of crotchfruit, but instead of spending a week gambling in Monte Carlo like James Bond, you supposedly "free" people are spending thousands on vet bills, dog food, cat food, pet trinkets, and all of that shit like a Petco groupie. You have freedom beckoning to you like the Lorelei, but you reject her utterly. Idiots.

While we’re at it, let’s prohibit all womenfolk from nesting within the confines of our abodes. The real cause of the mess at hand.
:wrong:

my womanfolk is the cause of clean spaces. I am usually the offender. But she did want the dog. So divide by zero?

We've tried. All the cleaning people our neighbors use are "booked" and "not taking new homes".

Ohhhhh we've connected A to B. While we love our dog, we're sick of how much she ties us down. We eschewed crotchfruit for freedom, and the dog is the last thing tying us down. When she passes, that's it for us. Our cat is clean AF, but when she's gone, that's done too. Zero living things depending on us is the end goal.

Mine is ridiculously tidy and apt to throw anything she doesn't deem important away. I'm a bit less so. She likes a clean house, so we've found the divide and conquer approach the best. I do dishes, clean bathrooms, and take out the trash, she does floors and dusts. We both share laundry and outdoor cleaning.

BUT WHO FILLS THE SOAP?
:lolol:

That's a collective effort. She loves soap and has a bunch of different bottles at each sink area. When one runs out, grab another.

Same with TP

These are my feels too. My dog has its share of problems, like the aggression towards smaller dogs, but doesn’t shed much. Holy fuck Michelle’s dog sheds like it’s his fucking job. I can vacuum the floor right before bed and then wake up the next morning and it’s like I did zero cleaning at all. I’m trying to get her to be better about furminating him, but I know you’re not supposed to do that overly frequently with dogs like huskies, so I don’t really know that there’s a solution to the problem. Maybe she’d control shampoo, but I doubt that’s that effective.

I LOVE our dog. She's not even that messy, and relatively low maintenance overall. She's about as ideal as a :doge: can get, and still is a PITA and ties us down.

I don't know how you folks do long haired dogs. Ours is short hair and sheds...I always make it a point to furminate and give hard pets outside to get the hair out. Works well to minimize hair inside the house, but it's still present. Long hair would be :nope:
