Like, when I allow other people to wash my dishes or clean anywhere else in my house, I always am wondering if they actually cleaned it or not because The military really taught us how to focus on spots that most people are not even consciously aware of.

Any day when I could just do something mindless (swabbing the decks, anyone) was great, especially if I was hung over from the night before. I mean, I heard field days were good after a night of drinking. I always found something to clean behind the racks or in the laundry room in boot camp, which meant I could catch at least 10 minutes of sleep. I loved field day!

I never lived on base, but I was required to go to the barracks and clean. I hated it because no one ever came to my apartment and cleaned. It just rubbed me the wrong way. But hey, a tight Marine unit we were. I was on many different ships during my tour, and I have to say the LS class ship was the worst to clean. For some reason the Marines always got stuck cleaning the storage areas. But I guess it's a necessity right? I mean, there is a purpose and reason behind field days. Funny that it actually shaped how I take care of my home now. My kids wonder why I'm such a clean freak. Great post. For me field days sucked.

But I guess it’s a necessity right? I mean, there is a purpose and reason behind field days. Funny that it actually shaped how I take care of my home now. My kids wonder why I’m such a clean freak.

Great post.
