Subarashii
if anyone's wondering why I've gone quiet, we got hit with two day's notice of inspection
Subarashii
so I'm mostly just cleaning a lot
Shirt Strippeur
Like I always, say! Do what you need to do!
Shirt Strippeur
RL > RP yadda yadda
Subarashii
yeah like
Shirt Strippeur
Hope everything goes well...nonetheless
Subarashii
my mother has EXTREME anxiety issues related to cleaning, so
hotline
oh man. do what you gotta do, hun. big hugs from here.
Subarashii
a lot of my time goes into just making sure she doesn't flip out and muscle spasm
Shirt Strippeur
My mom is practically OCD when it comes to cleaning. So I partially understand
Subarashii
she's been getting a lot better because she's been seeing a therapist, but when she got the notice she flipped out at me and I had to calmly talk her down
Shirt Strippeur
u,u Stupid short notice.
Subarashii
generally the house is okay I just have to make the side room look presentable, vaccum clean, wipe the windowsills, scrub the toilet and the tub, and take out ALL THIS TRASH
Subarashii
I took out some last night, but I still have four bags left along with a container
Shirt Strippeur
As long as cleaning is maintained to a degree, it's usually not horrible
Subarashii
yeah like
Subarashii
she flipped out and like in 20 minutes I had the kitchen and front room looking okay
Subarashii
again it mostly just needs a little picking up and a good vaccum but
Shirt Strippeur
Unless all the nooks and crannies are important, too. That's some extra time spent
Subarashii
she came from an abusive household where she was constantly berated by her family and her grandmother was never satisfied with her
Shirt Strippeur
Fucking...wrapping a thin rag around a pen and urgghh
Shirt Strippeur
That;s awful
Subarashii
and previous landlords have used that anxiety to yell at her
Subarashii
like the one we had before, FUCKING MARCUS, was never happy with how we cleaned
Subarashii
(he was grossly incompetent anyway and broke shittons of michigan landlord laws but)
Subarashii
like he actually came in our house once when we weren't there without giving us notice
Subarashii
that's expressly illegal in our state unless there's an emergency
Subarashii
he gave the excuse it was 'bed bugs' which isn't an emergency
Subarashii
and mia always flinched from the maintenance dude after that, most likely because he sprayed her with rubbing alchohol
Subarashii
(because she was. doing her job and probably attacked them, she never liked marcus to begin with)
Shirt Strippeur
This sounds like a whole mess of nightmares.
Shirt Strippeur
wowooooow
Subarashii
Mia already has the hallmarks of a previously abused animal so
Subarashii
thanks for doing that shit to my dog
Shirt Strippeur
@_@ Ommmmmggg
Shirt Strippeur
What a shit human being
Subarashii
we got her from the shelter at one year old and for a LONG time she'd flinch or try to run away whenever I held like. a book or a laptop closed in my hand
Shirt Strippeur
It took our dog 6 months just to warm up to SOME of our family because she was horribly abused too. =x= That really boils my blood
Subarashii
she doesn't do it anymore but she still will NOT come when called
Shirt Strippeur
That's so sad
Subarashii
or she will just to get scratched for a few seconds before darting back to her safe place
Subarashii
like more often than not she'll walk away if you call, it has to be on her terms (most likely when she's woken up and I'm lying down)
Subarashii
she's gotten a LOT better about it but it's hard not to notice she's always slightly nervous whenever I'm petting her
Subarashii
(I have held her down to do things like comb out her fur and get rid of underhair, which she needs because she's double coated or work out knots in her beard, which she hates)
Shirt Strippeur
Well yeah, but if abused animals are mistreated, they can regress >:T
Subarashii
but it's like LISTEN GIRL, I HAVE TO, THIS IS FOR YOUR OWN GOOD
Subarashii
she's a terrier mix, by the way - we're pretty sure mostly beagle and russel terrier
Subarashii
if you've ever seen benji, she basically looks like that but white and tan

Aww, you got this!
