...or not :wacky:

So living alone for as long as I have you would think I'd know how to operate the washing machine properly, cook, iron all that usual bollocks that comes with living alone

I use 3 whole dials on the washing machine...3, 4 and 6. I'm fucked if I know what the rest do. Those 3 are just the temperatures. It was only since I moved to this house that I started checking clothes labels for what temperatures they need. It's no wonder I used to dye things or wash the print off the front :gasp:

And everytime I iron I either burn my self or burn what Im ironing, I have learned to iron everything inside out so any potential burn marks can't be seen :wacky:

I can't cook for shit, I still don't know how to work the cooker at my mums, I was never allowed near it and I hate the hoover. With a PASSION

I think housework and all things are a hazard to myself.

So who here is housetrained?
 
I'm the perfect housewife tbqh. I can cook, I clean, I wash the dishes and I'm just as bad as mother if something's out of place. :wacky:

I'll be fine. :gmonster:

Oh God Kelly, you really need someone do things for you xD

Anywho, yep I can do these things. I know how to use the Oven (self taught! :wacky:), the ironing I can do, just, and I can clean and wash dishes.

Woo, I'm house trained :gasp:
 
I'm not too bad at most things, I can cook moderately (though I have a habit of forgetting to keep an eye on the food and badly burn it :O) I can iron fine, I can clean well enough and generally keep stuff tidy (or at least to the point of not tripping over stuff or walking into them :wacky:). Though washing machines and me don't get on... Why are they so darn confusing? :gasp:
 
I was the dishes
xD

I can't cook, although I can make rice pudding.
I've never tried ironing, but if I did I'd probably burn something. I can vacuum quite well and I can fix doors, mend sinks, all that kind of stuff.
 
I can cook a very little. I think all I can manage is sausage/burger and chips and spaghetti bolognese, but even that is out of a jar. :wacky:
I've got the washing machine sussed out, that's not hard at all. I just need to remember which little bit of the drawer the tablet an conditioner goes in. Other than that, I'm about as house trained as a monkey on Pro Plus.
 
I can cook anything that involves a microwave and a toaster...which generally means toast and something else. :wacky:
I can do the ironing and wash the dishes too! Although when it comes to anything like using the washing machine/oven and stuff like that I don't have a clue what to do.
 
I can operate a washing machine, dryer, dishwasher, oven, and such. It's really pretty simple. I've been cooking rice ever since I was five years old (without a rice cooker - we used a pot and cooked it on the stove and just had to be on the look out for it) so I guess I've been house-trained, yes. Um, my dad's very strict about that. Cultural thing, you see, which I'd rather not get into.
 
I like hoovering and ironing and stuff like that. I've never tried using the washing machine before though so wouldn't know how it works. As for cooking I say that I can't cook but really I just don't cook. I'm sure I could manage if I followed a recipe though, I used to be able to make a good stir-fry. I used to go to food club after school but forgot all of the things I made. >_> I was alright but occasionally had the random disaster like exploding chocolate bread in the oven. :wacky:
 
I've well been doing great recently, I finally aquired my first EVER full sized ironing board for the first time ever since living alone for about 8 or so years and I havent burnt myself recently so no more scars to add to the collection

I have been COOKING more regular aswel, I have done sunday dinners two weeks in a row and been making random meals during the week which have turned out rather well and I have been hoovering regular which I despise doing, although I think my hoover broke with the shock of actyualluy being used so now I need a new one >_>

Just to er point out, I have flooring throughout downstairs so I swept it was just upstairs that got abot neglected :wacky:
 
I actually cook pretty well, I took it on as a hobby of mine some months back. As far as all of those others "clean-y" things, I handle those alright. We have a pretty simple washing machine (thank God for that), and ironing isn't all that difficult. Then again, I don't iron very often (never). =P
 
I can't cook for shit, I still don't know how to work the cooker at my mums

Aye. :monster:

I can cook rice...at least.
I can't iron, scrub floors or garden.

But I can fold! XD

EDIT: I am pretty OC when it comes to my bed though. I MUST have it fixed before leaving the room. Regardless of where I am.
