The Morning After

Philliam and I threw a Halloween party on Friday the 30th. Today is Sunday, November 1. We've officially finished cleaning and his house looks great! Well, we finished cleaning on Halloween but this morning we did another thorough cleaning throughout the house. It was exhausting. No pictures until I upload. I have a test this week. But here's a dialogue between me and him during our back breaking cleaning session on Saturday morning. Me: Babe, I need a scooper for the debris I piled up. Him: Sure, just give me a minute. *Philliam leaves the master bedroom and comes back after 4 minutes* Him: Here you go. *hands me a ripped up wheaties box* Me: Huh??? o_O He put some thought into making it because it has a nifty handle that scoops up the debris just fine. I guess I should be proud that he's following my footsteps in trying not to feed evil consumerism and being an environmentalist. Or is he is just being lazy? If you're wondering, I did use that Wheaties dust pan box until I no longer had anymore use for it. I'm thinking about either: making him a dust pan from items I have lying around, buying him an organic one (pricey), pay a visit to my local thrift shop, or go the Target way (because sometimes it's alright to be a hypocrite).

That is cute, that he put thought into it lol. It could be a combo of both lazyness and really thinking about that stuff. If he has a broom why is there no dust pan? You can get a cheap ass dust pan probably like at dollar tree, or target or walmart or some asian supermarket

it's probably because he doesn't see it being necessary to own a dust pan since he uses the swifter (which doesnt pick up debris that well - i own one at my parent's house).

yeah same here.. My mom is serious about her broom and dust pans lol.. She is picky lol... likes only asian ones but yet the broom leaves pieces of bristles. Yeah I just vacuumed the floor at my apt. instead of sweeping it.
