OK - what are your most slatternly habits....?!! Fess up!

Mine?

I left a cat poo in the litter tray (cat must have been desperate as she does go outside) for over a month. I kept remind (ok nagging hubbue to do it until it became a matter of principle that I didnt do it!)

Plus - I stuff chocolate wrappers down the side of chairs!!

Cmon - I cant be the only one (surely??!!)

I kick coat hangers and other bits under the couch so I don't have to take them upstairs

Leave the top of the oven for DP to clean (every time!!) I think I've cleaned it once since we moved in almost 2 years ago

Take anything I don't want to deal with upstairs - a LOT to do up there!

Never clean inside oven.

Hardly ever change bedding, have a NM so do change them now before he is due to visit.

I only iron the collar and top front bit of my shirt for work in the winter as it is under a jumper.

I let the dog lick the plates before they go in the dishwasher.

Oven hasn't been cleaned in years.

I rarely move furniture when I vacuum - just do the visible bits.

There's a reason for this nickname, you know.....

'Dust' surfaces with my sleeves or jumper when I can see the layers in the sunshine, rarely clean the upstairs windows inside, never move furniture when hoovering, except when I change the rooms round at Xmas!

I put tissues down the side of the sofa. I kick all sorts under the sofa rather than deal with it.

I'm a totally lazy housekeeping slut really

i use baby wipes to clean anything and everything if I'm feeling lazy.
