The plane is waiting but I have to hoover, dust and clean ! WHY ???

Mr Google says -

Ohhhh phewwwwww..... I'm not on my own... but I am left still with the question WHY ?? Im like a dog with bone.....

Thank you again.... ?

Same here cleaned washed ironed mowed lawn yesterday now packing and checking lists. As usual packed too much thankfully ferry not airplane so no weight limit.
Just about done so about ready for our yearly pilgrimage for a fortnight in Jersey

I do it too and have started taking a black plastic bag for all our dirty washing so it can go straight in the basket to be sorted when we get back, I'm turning into my mother.

My house is never spotless ??

My house is spotless on Chrustmas Day. I then proceed to do nothing for about a week and just sit amongst the debris.

I'm glad it's not just me. Yes that's why we do it, so we come home to a lovely clean and tidy house. Have a great holiday Serendipity.

Well firstly THANK YOU for replies, it seems to me I am just CRACKERS haaaaaa.

Fanny I am off to see my son in Canada and I HAVE MY 2 75ml OF MAGICOOL with me and alllllll thoughts will be on you because it was you who gave me good feedback on it.....

I had to laugh at your post Bellanonna about the burglars..... despite finding it funny, IT BETTER NOT HAPPEN!!!

Thanks again for posts, it still a puzzle and being a gal who likes to know WHY A,B and C takes place, THIS 1 is gyrating on me ..

Me too. I'm the same at Christmas. It's as though Santa won't call if I've not vacuumed under beds and washed behind the fridge.

I do it so that the house is clean and tidy on our return. Then it’s only the unpacking and laundry to do.

My MiL always scrubbed,cleaned and washed on NYE so the house would be pristine for the new year.

I do it too. It's lovely to come home to a nice clean house and think "it's quite nice here isn't it!"

Exactly its so that when you come home the lovely relaxed holiday feeling is not ruined by coming in to a messy house that needs cleaning. I always do it all before going away.

A friend mentioned doing this to me many years ago. And I started doing it too, after she said it.

It's because I hate coming home to a dirty/untidy house. I want to walk in to a lovely clean home. It stresses me to walk into mess/dirt.

I also hate people that start unpacking downstairs. Take the case to your room and unpack there! Keep the place tidy.

Serendipity, perhaps you’re afraid that burglars will break in and feel shocked if you don’t leave the place sparkling.

I guess, though, you just like to come back, probably tired from the journey and your cleaned home will be a joy to get back to.

Have a great holiday. I don’t share your zeal.

I don’t know Serendipity, but I’d love to know where you are off to!
