to ask you what life is too short for?

[Rhinosaurus]

Absolutely fed up with the usual Saturday routine of housework, weekly shop, sorting out crap in the house....

After recently reading Shirley Conran, and in the spirit of her phrase "Life is too short to stuff a mushroom" I would like to say......

Life is too short to bloody well dust skirting boards!

to have friends that really aren't enhancing your life.

I'm with you jazz

to not have a bit of what you fancy Mnetting while waiting for DH with my KFC

too short for being a professional offendee over every silly little thing someone posts on fb :)

life is too short;

to iron definitely
to tidy up too often
to worry about, an estimated 80% of what people post in AIBU about (particularly offhand, trying to be nice comments made by old ladies, people at the bus stop, shop staff etc)

whinging, pessimism and generally being constantly miserable

Sometimes there are things worth complaining about but lifes too short to spend your whole time moaning - at least try to enjoy yourself.

And ironing obv (excluding work clothes and outfits for special occasions).

Washing pots.

I'll never regret not washing enough pots.

Life is too short to worry about things I cannot control!!

Life is too short to worry about what others think about you. I for one don't care less.

Life is too short to...
Iron,
Worry about other peoples opinion of you,
Be miserable,
Worry about money, there's no pockets in a shroud and they can't take what you haven't got.

Agree with StellaAnd Fries:)

Life is too short for:

Ironing underpants and tea towels
Pagan politics,
Taking it too seriously.

With this in mind, we bought a caravan

Every weekend i would clean, do laundry, shopping and meal planning..every weekend.

Now we can just sling some good food into our caravan and naff off for the weekend, life is too short for humdrum week in week out rituals imho.

Life is too short to make lasagne.

By the time I've done the mince AND boiled the lasagne sheets, I'm thinking "What? I've got to make cheese sauce too??!"

Then you've got to assemble the blinking thing.

Whats wrong with spaghetti and mince and cheese grated on top, I ask? :o

Clothes shopping.

I loathe it.

scraping poo out of toddler pants, rinsing them, soaking them, rinsing them then washing them in the machine only to have a shitty smelling washing machine that makes all the rest of your clothes smell shitty for ages after.

just bin them. so much easier.

to fret that I've just let DS watch TV all afternoon, beause DD is having an unusually long nap and I just can't be arsed to do anything...

too short to not treasure every moment with my son or to lose any opportunity to show him i love him

..for a fucking football match!

I should add, for the day to revolve around it.

life is too short for sulking after an arguement for days

for regrets-past is past.end of

for cleaning heads of screws on furniture with a cotton bud

Agree with ironing, cleaning the oven, cleaning the car, cleaning pooey toddler pants!

I would add cleaning and tidying the garage. FIL and DH are determined to do this over the summer. I couldn't care less.

Iron
