Maybe it skips a generation?
Submitted by Marta on April 19, 2010 – 4:20 am6 Comments
My mother is descended from a race of people who are compulsive clean-freaks.
The stories of my great aunts who each had their own personal broom and dustpan are legendary.
These people cleaned things. Every. Day.
And liked it.
Sadly, that part of my Cuban ancestry must be recessive.
A big THANK YOU to my husband, Eric, for understanding that about me. I love you, too.

Until my 20th birthday. Then, the gene kicked in. The rest is history.
It is part of my lineage also. And the apple don’t fall far from the tree.

I remember coming home from school and my house smelling like Pine-Sol and Clorox! I knew that my mom had been working hard that day! She was obsessed with clean floors :)
