Do you do jobs around the house that other people could have done?

Fleur @Fleura (31474) • United Kingdom 13 Feb

Do you do jobs that you don’t really need to do, just because you can’t bear the way other people do it or the time they take to get around to it? I know I do this, especially with the laundry. If my partner does it, then when he...

When did you last play hopscotch?

Fleur @Fleura (31474) • United Kingdom 16 Jan
