Clean Concrete

Now you'd think that after the few posts about my Land Lady that she couldn't clean soap. However there is one thing that she cleans to the best of her ability.
The concrete in our back yard.
Daily she is seen sweeping the backyard with the same broom she uses on the house. After sweeping the concrete she pours bleach on it and scrubs it with the broom. After which she hoses it off.
One morning she made everyone get up at 7am...and I am pretty sure it was on Saturday...and move their cars so that she could wash under the truck parked in the backyard. Now there is nothing wrong with cleaning your back yard...but not daily....using bleach. Im pretty sure that it's against the rules here in LA to use water like that...because we're in a draught/water shortage...thingie.

The craziest moment came our new roommates were partying the night before and spilled water on the cement. The next day she was seen scrubbing the water off the concrete....using water.

And of course she doesn't clean it all off so when the sun gets hot enough...which is everyday it activates the left over bleach in the cement. So now the backyard can't be a chill spot...because she chopped down the only source of shade (See blog titled: Lord of the Flies) and on a hot day the bleach fumes are pretty strong.

I have probably been exposed to more hazardous chemicals now than my whole Navy career...and I spent 5 years on a ship that had asbestos on it.
