Catching up with memes

Ok here we go! First I was tagged by Mariuca, a little while ago. She tagged me for 3 memes but I'll only do 2 of them. The first, which applies to Mama( poor thing is a domesticated diva...),the second one is basically targeted to 2 legged people, talking about pizza, coke or pepsi, stuff I can't eat or drink so, I'm skipping that one and doing the third one which is short and sweet so let's get started! Mama, your turn to share some of your "most interesting" activities you do in your life, aren't you excited?

MEME 1

Mama says:

According to the rules, I am to list down the household chores I hate and why I hate them. Then copy the image provided and tag as many people as you want. Add your blogs link to the domesticated divas linky love and leave a comment at Stripe and Yellow to be added to the master list. Seems pretty simple enough and of course, there are plenty of household chores to choose from but I'll limit myself to 3! ;)

1. Ironing ( worst of them all, agreed 100% Marzie!)
It really gets on my nerves especially when the fabric contains some sort of "stretch" and when one side gets all smooth and the other gets all wrinkled, then I fix that and the smooth side gets wrinkled; you just can't win...

2. Washing the bathroom
Everything is nasty, smells bad and requires a lot of hard work to scrub it all off not to mention the harmful vapors from the cleaning products. Wearing gloves is not pleasant either!

3. Doing the dishes and keeping the kitchen in order.
Although the dishwasher helps, there is always the need to rinse off the food from plates and silverware if you're not starting a load right away. Unless I have guests over, the dishwasher takes about 2 days to fill up with dirty dishes etc and I never turn it on half empty, not worth it.
That means scrubbing them all before they go in there for a proper wash.

Ok Done!

Thanks Mama, now it's my turn ! Or do you wanna do this one too?

Ok I'll let Mama do this one too!

And last but not least, this adorable and very simple meme came from AikoAiko, thanks so much!

Marcia Torres said...

Sushi... I'm gonna sound like crazy but I'll tell you one of my secrets!!!!
I LOVE TO DO HOUSEWORK!!!!!!

spymama checking out blogs she have not been too...

Jean Chia aka Ms.Yummy~licious said...

Oi sushi! hehe.. woof woof, A&B loves walking in the park too! and Ariel used to loves treats but due to her heart condition, she cannot take too salty treats which means no treats at all. Poor her, rite!

i always thought it would be easier to hv a dishwasher but hearing what your explanation on the dishwashing, it is still back to square one. ><

thanks for doing the tags, sushi! I'll add you in my lists at once. Have a great weekend! :)

Claudia Lima said...

Sushi said...

Hi Marzie, the memes were fun and Mama enjoyed doing the "domesticated divas" one! I already sent you an e-mail so you can tell me what kinda boo-boo I made, thanks dear! Woof, woof!

Sushi said...

Yes, you do sound like crazy Aunty M. Your house must be so spotless with no dishes in the sink, no crumbs or dirt on the floor, all the ironed clothes hanging neatly in the closet...and considering you have my wonderful little cousins at home, you're a such a great "domesticated diva" hahahaha! Sure, when you visit, Mama will be sooooo appreciative of your help with all these horrible chores!

Sushi said...

Hi Aunty Claudia, you're welcome and hope you have fun doing the memes. Uh-oh I think it's already past the Blog Day...
I'll check the one you recommended, thanks again and have a nice holiday! XX

Sushi said...

Thanks for checking me out spymama, and welcome to My Pooch Life! I just paid you a visit too!

Sushi said...

Woof Jean, sorry to hear about Ariel's heart condition... I hope she will live longer than the doctor told you, which I think she has right? And that's great!
How old are my fellow Woofies? I'll be 3 years old 17/09! Woofies and specially to Ariel.

Marcia Torres said...

To tell you the truth my place is NOT as clean as you think it is... It's usually very messy!!! It's your two cousin's playground!! They really play at home... all their toys are spreading all around and they don't put them away ... NEVER... I have to beg, to ask, to scream, to yeall and sometimes they do their job... But I know they are acting their ages, sooooooooo let them play!!!!
But I like to do housework because it's very expensive to have a maid to help me around. Sometimes I invite a woman who comes here once a week... but still it's very expensive...
It'll be a pleasure to help your mom or even do the housework for her.
Bye-bye!

Sushi said...

Hi Aunty, are my cousins spoiled rotten? It sounds like... My advice is for you to watch the TLC show John & Kate plus 8. A couple with 8 kids,twins and sextuplets and their house seems to be in order. She is very, very firm and sort of strict with all her children!! So, if she can do it with 8 children you can do it too! Good luck!

Marcia Torres said...

Oh! Sushi!! My boys aren't that spoiled!!! They're just too much messy!!! H is less messy than F. H's also a lot more careful with his stuff than F. But F's very funny and sweet ... sooooo in order not to have an argument over every single thing I allow them to make a mess at home.
But I'll try to watch the show you mentioned ... Or I'll try Super Nanny!!!!!
Beijos.
