Some things are just not worth my time (cleaning related)

[TimeforMe]

I was cleaning my toaster oven a little while ago and took out the little rack/grate to clean it. I was scrubbing it with a brillo pad using quite a bit of elbow grease and was getting agitated that I couldn't get it perfectly clean when it occurred to me that it didn't really need to be. (although I must say it's still nagging me a little that I gave up)

Do you obsess over little things sometimes?

Um, you're more than welcome to come clean the rack in my toaster oven...I don't even remember the last time I took it out and cleaned it...hmmmm

That rack comes out? Who knew, I learned something today.

Wow. You're supposed to clean those????

I use a little sprinkle of Bon Ami powder on a scouring pad to clean the rack of my toaster oven. It shines once I'm done but it still does take "elbow grease" to do it!

And YES, I obsess over almost everything!

That's an example of a task that I just didn't even know existed until I grew up

I swear by Bon Ami too!

Oooh, Bon Ami it is. I never tried that. Glad I'm not the only one that obsesses over small things. Believe me, though, my house is hardly spotless. It's just that one I do something, it's gotta be 100% or I don't do it at all. Needless to say, lots of things don't get done
disneygals: Yep, being a grownup brings about all kinds of thankless tasks, doesn't it?
