My new apartment has wood floors.
I'm so excited to be running around with Murphy's Oil Soap. It's such a nice pleasant clean smell instead of a chemical one.
Can't you ever get your mind out of the hellmouth?

I wish my apartment had wood floors. It's got white carpet, which gets stained really easily and which just builds up dust. I can understand why they went with a neutral color for the carpet, but tan or something would have worked just as well without showing every stain.

Moving was big fat trauma, but I will not miss that floor. White linoleum. Scrub it for an hour and it looked clean for about a minute and a half.

holy cow. I got home from visiting KT around 12:30. I decided to just climb into bed, about 3 hours earlier than I normally do. I turned off all alarms. Slept NINE hours, AIFG! Woke up, and worked on tidying up the bedroom. Appears my stomach is twarting me. Had to stop for brunch. Now on the couch. this could be bad.

I've got tile in the kitchen, which is pretty but really hard, so anything that I drop breaks.

Ugh.
We have hardwood floors. It's pretty old, so it's peeling in places, but it's still so much better than carpets or linoleum. Even better? Both the bathroom and the kitchen have tile floors.

I really need to scrub floors, but vinegar. The smell kills me.

You do get used to it (well, I guess maybe not everybody will get used to it...), and it does dissipate after a couple of hours.
And I'd rather smell vinegar than some chemical smell.

I don't like either, which may explain the state of my floors. Of course, scrubbing takes time & effort, neither of which I have in abundance on a regular basis.

I generally try to sweep each night (though I've been slacking on that lately), and then scrub when they're starting to look too gross. I probably should mop every once in a while in between the scrubbing, so that they don't get too dirty, but my cleaning tends to be in spurts, rather than any sort of organized everyday thing.
