Plus there is so many other things I could be doing. I'm on vacation. I hate pesach cleaning, it is annoying. I wish the house would just clean itself.
The funny thing is, no one even asked me to clean. My mother is not making me, they didn't say "only come home if you are going to help." If I don't help no one will even notice.
But there is this guilt inside of me, and this dreadful feeling I get every year that somehow, our house is just not clean enough.
Thank G-d for the bracha that exonerates us from the chometz.
Now I am off to not clean.
Thats why ur supposed to buy ur ticket so that u come home erve pesach:)
ReplyDeleteToo bad I wasn't flying.
ReplyDeleteOk, or when u drive in. Same thing.
ReplyDeleteEven though i don't want to clean, seems a bit selfish to show up the day of and enjoy the results without the work. But of course, no one expects anything from guys.
ReplyDeleteNot really. Its part of not living at home. & the not expecting things from guys is incorrect. I was brought up that the guy can (and should) do the same sort of things as the females. When I am home, I do just as much cooking / cleaning etc. as any female sibling, and my father and mother are the same way. I just think that is the way a normal household should run
ReplyDeleteThen you are just proving my point. Why show up erev pesac if you could go earlier to help out? Especially if helping out is expected and required of you? Just cuz you dont live at home doesnt mean you shouldn't pitch in.
ReplyDeleteI have never before gone home so late. Ive always made sure to give time to help. This year im finishing work friday, so I have no real choice.
ReplyDeleteThere is always a choice.
ReplyDeleteSnippy snippy.
ReplyDeleteChoice? What choice is there? I have a job, (a responsibility) which ends friday. No two ways about it.
ReplyDeleteSometimes there really isn't a choice. I'm not getting home until late Saturday/early Sunday morning, and not because I chose to, but because my last final for law school is Friday afternoon. If I could be there to help, I would. But this year, I don't have a choice.
