Keeping house with Fibro

I bought myself an Irobot that does dog hair and dander and I Love It. I just turn it on and it does the work for me. It cleans better than me and my old vaccume. The only drawback is, I have to empty the bin in the middle of cleaning because I have 5 great danes (we rescue the old and unwanted ones from Rocky Mountain Great Dane Rescue in Denver). Other than that it's great!

When my DDs were in middle school & high school and would be ground, I found out that they were talking on the phone. I would unplug the phone and put it in the washing machine and throw some towels on top. I knew they would NEVER do a load of laundry so I didn't worry about them finding it. If they need to get a hold of Dad or Me they just has to go next door and use their phone.

Fibromyalgia is not an invisible diease, I'm right here!

Two years ago at Thanksgiving oldest DD who was 27 at the time asked if she could help me. I told her to peel the potatoes. She didn't know where I kept the potato peeler. Got it out and handed it to her. A few minutes later she is still standing there holding the peeler and a potato and she says "How do you peel a potato?"

I guess you could say they were spoiled as I never fixed instant potatoes back then.

most self perpelled vacs are the way to go I had a canester vac I love but they make them to break now Ive gone threw many we live on a dirt pile,so my husband gets a shop vac..has anyone tried to vaccume carpet with it dont I should put that in "stupid things my husband does, dont"

house work for me is bad because I never could surface clean and I dont feel my house is clean if I dont re-arrange it,now I can barely do a thing and Im not one to ask for help then I get mad because no one does help its a circle but one thing I have done was try to re arrange my kitchen to make things easier to reach if I use it alot and heaveier things on more level for me to lift,you really have to think how the kitchen is more functinal for you..
