SEAN says "If we cant do it now, a tool isnt going to make it so."

Not so fast. What about a fleet of those robotic vacuums? I am not sure if they make them heavy duty enough to vacuum up socks and other clothing, but when they do, put me on the list for one. It's going to have to have off-road tires to handle going up and down on throw rugs, and has to have the ability to suck up wet cat hair balls too.

It would also be nice if they could not only support the weight of said cat, to give the cat something to do, but would support my weight too, so I could ride around on the vacuum. If the apartment was a little larger, I'd go for a ride-on mower, with the bag attachment to handle all the problems of anything on the floor.

I would then learn to pick more things up, or I would have mulch from ottomans and clothing and area rugs.

I have always been messy. I also have bad back problems, that makes it hurt really bad to bend over. Hence, I don't bend over. Too often anyway. Climbing is a problem too, so I had the great idea of getting a floor mop and using it on the walls. Perhaps if it has a swiveling head, that would have worked. Perhaps if it had been a regular sponge kind it would have worked. But no, I HAD to pick out the one with the "Magic Eraser" head. It's kind of solid.

So mostly what happened is I had water dribbling on my head and running down my arms, into my shirt, passing over my underarm area, and being absorbed by my bra.

My ideal home consists of something similar to a zoo enclosure in which I could just hose down the place. Furniture too. Maybe just some nice patio plastic chairs and a lounge chair. Hose it all down. It makes SO much sense. Nice big drain in the middle of the floor. Doing it naked would take care of the shower part too. And could also just leave dishes on the floor (like in the Sims game) and hose those off too. Guess the floor drain better have a garbage disposal in it.

It's not our fault that we have problems with messiness. It's just that they don't make houses with center drains and ride-on mulching vacuums.

It's another manifestation of not being able to get out of bed, or go to get badly needed meds. I once coached another friend with bp by phone to get her dressed and into the car so she could go get back on meds that she clearly needed...

i can't really clean or organize for others, i'm not focused enough, i a.d.d. all over the place. what i do as a designer is coming up with ideas and let other people build and paint and all that, while i come to supervise every once in a while and change my mind about things and drive them crazy.
