The stroller picks up so much gunk that gets rolled into the entry that it's not worth it. Once the snow stops coming, I'll clean them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2088426 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 11:31:25 +0000 Freckles 2088426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: ours is the hand scraped style flooring and you can barely tell when the floors aren't clean. :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2088416 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 11:28:32 +0000 chopsuey 2088416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The mudroom! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2088392 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 11:20:49 +0000 meganmp 2088392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The inside. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2088379 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 11:15:05 +0000 StrawberryShortie 2088379@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hear on the white tiled kitchen floor.

I always feel like there's something dirty there. The inside of the oven, behind the fridge, the grease on the hood of the stove, ugh it's just impossible to keep clean. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2088230 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 10:11:46 +0000 littleredhairedgrl 2088230@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>our hardwoods.. they are very dark and with the salt and snow being tracked in and our dog it is so hard to keep them clean. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2088214 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 10:01:39 +0000 Cole 2088214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I am in the all of it camp! Specifically the kitchen, our bedroom and the powder room- our black dog likes to sleep in there (?!) And it's white tile on the floor and walls so it looks dirty ten minutes after I clean it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2088210 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 09:59:32 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 2088210@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All of it. Gahd. I'm so unmotivated. When the baby comes, I'll be "Mrs. Clean" Right...RIGHT?!! :meh: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2088208 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 09:58:22 +0000 autumnlove 2088208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Freckles: Yeah, maybe a wood grain tile will be more forgiving for crumbs and paw prints!</p> <p>ugh, our kitchen desk is a disaster too!

You can see everything on espresso coloured floors. </p> <p>For me it's the desk area of the kitchen. No matter how often I declutter it, crap continues to pile up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2088028 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 07:49:21 +0000 Modern Daisy 2088028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The floor and wall around my sons high chair.

When we come in to the house, it's just the natural place to put whatever is in your hands, so even when we clean it off it is covered in mail, shopping bags, etc. again within hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2088024 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 07:44:48 +0000 looch 2088024@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The garage.

So those three rooms are an absolute mess at the end of the day. Everywhere else stays reasonably clean (a cleaning lady comes biweekly) and I pick those rooms up when DH gets home. </p> <p>If I don't keep the house clean while we're cooped up inside this winter, I'll start to feel like this...</p> <p>[attach=2478/15/nkecog.516x600.image.jpg]</p> <p>ETA: sorry for the terrifying picture :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2087235 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 15:49:16 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2087235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right now all of it because of morning sickness and DH working long hours. Usually it's my office. I just let things pile up in there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2087231 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 15:48:04 +0000 Mrs. J 2087231@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Um all of it. By the time I've picked something up, LO takes it out again/makes a different mess. Bathrooms are rough too, esp because DH won't clean them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2087224 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 15:45:38 +0000 artsyfartsy 2087224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The kitchen is the worst. We come through the garage door into the kitchen coming and going, so that's where all the clutter hits. Plus food and dishes. Yuck. </p> <p>But it seems like my whole house is always dirty no mattr how much I clean!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2087211 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 15:40:06 +0000 Ginabean3 2087211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The kitchen! We spend most of our time in here and the minute I vacuum and mop it's dirty again! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2087203 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 15:38:02 +0000 mrscobee 2087203@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All of it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-area-of-the-house-is-impossible-to-keep-clean#post-2087202 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 15:37:14 +0000 avivoca 2087202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All of it.
