~ Dam* Line of Dirt ~

I was cleaning the house today, and the same question goes through my head every time I sweep. “HOW… do you get that last little bit of dirt up?” You know… the one that builds up in front of the dustpan? No matter how much you sweep it towards the dustpan, there is still that ‘tiny’ little line that stays there on the floor… just starring at you.. laughing… and mocking you….. because you cant get it to go into the dustpan…

stupid little line of dirt…. i’ll get you one day….. hehehehehehehehehehehehehee… but for now… ill just sweep you under the fridge so no one can see you…. including me….

So tell me… what do “you” do with that little line of dirt??? hhhhhmmmmmmmm??? lol.

Even a bit of damped bog roll will do it.
But what’s wrong with shoving it under the fridge? Every now and then you will have to get hubby to shift the fridge for you, to get rid of thousands of little dirt lines. YOU put under there.
Once you have got rid of those you will only have one little dirt line to shove under the fridge, to start the prosess all over again.
It’s good to share the housework together with hubby.

You could of course get a sniffer dog, that should do the trick. Yeh forget all that guffle up above and down below, it’s gotta be a sniffer dog.

I use a lint roller on it, because 9 times out of 10 it’s mostly cat hair.

Yes I know, but you always have a dog to blame for the mess then. Umph, do I need to explain EVERYTHING? You could always make patterns with the lines, could make it look quite pretty with a bit of practice.

The the idea of the sniffer dog in the first place, Is that the line of dirt will be stuck up it’s nose. Then put it outside untill it’s had a good sneeze.

Problem solved?

Hehe, I usually just use a damp paper cloth. If there isn’t one available, I sweep the dirt into a corner.

You just aint reading the answers are you. I said up above when it’s sniffed the dirt up it’s nose, you put it outside until it has had a good old fahioned doggy sneeze.

Problem solved?

The original Swiffer sucks. It still has that little cloth thing to stick on it, that picks up dust and that sort of stuff, but with the vac it actually picks up crumbs, hair, etc….It works really well!
