It takes so long!
It takes a long time to clean your floors! First you have to pick up the large items, then you have to sweep and remove the crumbs – THEN finally you can mop and scrub the grime from you floors. Who has time for all of that?!?!
It’s tiring
I don’t know about you, but all those steps wear me out! Cleaning your floors is a full day’s work and by the end, you just want to go to sleep!
You feel so dirty after
After being elbow deep in mop water, picking up trash and sitting on your knees scrubbing away dirt, your floors may look clean, but you certainly feel much dirtier! All that dirt was just transferred to your body!
Cleaning supplies are so expensive!
You need a mop, and a broom, and a scrub brush – plus you need gloves, a variety of soaps, a mop bucket, maybe some Swiffer covers. All of that adds up and it’s not cheap! PLUS, it has to be replaced – especially when you have to clean your floors often! Bottom line, cleaning your floors requires some expensive materials and we hate it!
“I can’t, I threw my back out.”
We’ve all said it! Our bodies cannot take continuous bending and stretching. Our backs go out and put us out of commission for days at a time. Bending over your floors is exactly the kind of evil that will put those words into your mouth.
Slippery floors
Your floors take forever to dry! You basically become trapped into the small, dry hole you have cleaned yourself into. If you don’t wait, expect a new bruise to form on your butt because you’re a slipping and sliding all over the house leaving a new trail of dirt with you.
Your furniture is heavy
Cleaning your floors is like your own personal weight lifting class. Your furniture is so heavy! Nobody likes lugging it around the house to clean the floor around it.
They don’t stay clean for long
Your clean floors will maybe last a day or two before your husband tracks in new mud on his boots and your kids bring in dirt on their sneakers. Then you are starting all over again.
Where do you put the dirty water?
Do you kill the grass with your dirty mop water? Or do your dirty your sink and poor it down the drain? How do I even lift it up high enough to pour it into the drain without spilling it all over the floor? These are serious questions and we have no good answers.
It will never be perfect
No matter how hard you scrub, or how much soap you use, your floors will never look squeaky clean. There will always be that stain you can’t get up or that mark that just won’t budge. After all your work, your floors will never be perfect and WE HATE IT!
