I just got done cleaning our showers and I had a blast! I find that one of the things I have most been surprised at in our community is that cleaning has not been an issue. I figured that we would have problems with people not cleaning up after themselves or not wanting to follow our cleaning schedule but it has gone great! Dishes sometimes pile up during the day but usually they are washed before we go to bed. Our bathroom is usually very clean and equipped with all we need. For those of you that don't know the women (I think the men also) have a cleaning chart and we switch jobs every week so we can all do all the jobs at some point. I have not only been surprised at how well the cleaning has gone but also how fun it can be to clean and cook together as a community. Cooking meals and doing dishes together have been two of my favorite things to do because I am helping everyone in the community as well as having a good time with others.
Some of you might find this post as ridiculous but the fact is that we need to do the cleaning so why not have fun doing it!
Life at Ubuntu is always exciting whether we are having a bonfire and a hymn sing, singing in the kitchen till 1 am, or looking at bridal magazines and hanging out with each other! Come visit!
