Sally cleans the cat litter for 45 minutes (that seems like a long time for cat litter...)
ReplyDeleteMax empties the trashcans for 30 minutes
and Jamie vacuums for 15 minutes.
Sally cleans the cat litter for 45 minutes. (How many freakin cats do they have? Or is she just really lazy?)
ReplyDeleteMax empties the trash for 30 minutes. (Did he empty a dumpster?)
Jamie Hoovers up the dust for 15 minutes ("So called because Hoover was first in the market. Now if Gobbling had been first in the market, I'd be gobbling up the dust.").
You both had it right.
ReplyDeleteSally - Cat litter - 45 minutes
Jamie - Vacuum - 15 minutes
Max - Empty trash cans - 30 minutes
Personally, it takes me a lot longer than that to clean out the litter box since I avoid it for as long as I can!
