kind of thinking of making a rule sheet for our own apartment too. luckily my roommates and I share many of the same habits so most of this stuff we never had to really talk about. and we all agree that we have to tell each other before taking any guests home. and ask each other before agreeing to let anyone stay overnight

#i fear the sheet might just be really obnoxious of me actually #specially since we very rarely have anyone over bc we agree the apartment is a place of Rest and Peace!!!#but some things piss me the fuck off with a burning passion #like leaving the living room lights on. closing the bathroom door when it's unused. not closing the toilet lid #leaving trash in the sink (that's what the bin is for!!!!) vaping inside. leaving personal shit in the living room (including shoes)#leaving personal shit in the bathroom sink (we got cabinets for that one reason!!)#putting the shower mat thing up when not showering so that it doesn't mold. putting the bathroom mat up too so the cats dont pee on it #the glass cups go together and there's a specific order for them (orangeish in the back. clear in the front)#the coffee Must always be properly sealed so that it keeps good (i have actually taped a note about that in the package and it has helped)#the flour stays in a plastic bag so that it doesn't get wet if we put it in the sink #some of this is common sense and some of this is etiquette and some of this is my (our) own rules #that's for the common areas what they or they guests do inside their rooms is none of my business god bless 🙏#so the rule is like. we each live our own way inside our rooms. the common areas must be clean and tidy for hygiene and practicality #doesnt have to be Too clean or Too tidy bc none of that got the energy or the discipline to do that #but to a minimum. like it's okay if the couch throw is all bunched up and scrunched. it has to be on the couch tho. so we know where it is #the kitchen cabinets can be messy but you dont put cups in the pan cabinet or pans in the cup cabinet. regardless of the state of the world #and everything must be kept to a minimum of cleanliness (clean your spills!! don't leave sticky surfaces behind!!)#and none of this is stuff we argue about because our habits very much coincide #only thing i get kind of pissy about is bc one of them gets impatient and annoyed about stuff in the dish rack #so she rushes to put it all away. and she doesn't have the patience to dry it with a cloth OR to wait for it to dry naturally #so she often puts it away kind of still wet #which. not optimal.#but thats the only mildly misaligned housekeeping habit i can think of in the house #we got very lucky in so many ways lmao
