They're still going through some serious mental and emotional issues that are kind of clouding their ability to be sober in mind and to know that they need to take care of their home. I do believe you have extreme cases like that, and there are some generous souls out there who are willing to clean these homes free of charge with their own equipment because they just want to help people get back on their feet. We thank God for those people

These are not rocket science things, but they're things that somebody has to show you how to do, or you have to care enough that you're going to go research it on YouTube, whatever. And I think people just don't. I think after three years of being locked in and locked up, our houses are more used than they were before we were spending more time inside of them. And so that wear and tear has shown. I would love to be a perfectly organized person

Hey, Karen, thank you so much for your response. I loved every point that you laid out, and I completely agree with every one of them. One of your points that really stood out to me was when you mentioned how people probably aren't being taught proper housekeeping anymore. And it reminded me of some TikTok videos that I saw where people were teaching others basic household skills. They were teaching people how to clean the lint tray in a dryer

Dirty is like whenever you come in and things are really out of place, and you got, like, food wrappers on the table that you ate from McDonald's last night that you forgot to throw away. Maybe you left a pot on the stove, or you left Bates towels on the floor in the bathroom. That's dirty. Just a little dirty. But filthy is where you got all this mess. When it's really nasty, like you ain't trying to do nothing

Now, as you said, there are a lot of people who didn't a lot of younger people who didn't grow up with that, or maybe it got outsourced because of a lot of changes in American society. People who would have done these things for themselves before, now they can pay somebody to come in and do it because it doesn't cost an arm and a leg. It used to be that having a housekeeper was for rich people

And I was talking about this on Sunday. Some people enjoy cooking. It's enjoyable for them, right? If they stress out, they'll go in the kitchen and cook up a whole big old meal and they'll cook up cakes and pies and all that kind of stuff. There's other people, when they get stressed out, they clean up like they do deep clean. And then there's other people that deep clean every day because they just really love to clean
