I have a roomate who lives here part time. She lives with her boyfriend a few days a week, and the rest of the week here. We're moving into a new place this week, and I want things to go differently. (Fresh start, and all that).
I think because I sleep in every morning, it seems like I am lazy and have nothing better to do? People feel this way...they forget that I work nights when they have their free time. My parents always call at 830am, and bitch that I am sleeping my day away. They don't understand I go to bed at 3am.
Anyway, I am kinda busy. I have horse stuff to do, and work...and school when classes are in session. So I guess I don't feel like it's fair that I do ALL the housework. She said she hates vaccuuming, and is no good at scrubbing. Ok...but whatever, just clean up the bathroom once in a while? Or the kitchen...or mop after I vaccuum. Or hell, sweep.
But I'm such a passive person...I don't know how to say "hey, can you clean once in a while?". I've said before that when she's alone she doesn't even bother to eat sometimes, and then bitches about being tired or having headaches. I don't want to act like anyone's mom.
It's just a little thing, but I know with school coming again it's going to bug me. What's a good way to deal with this? It's hard to bitch at her because she's my friend and all. It sucks because it feels like this is something I shouldn't have to ask for. I know she's not there the whole week, but still. Her hair sheds all over the bathroom...just to clean up once in a while, is all I want from her.
