Such is Suchi : A penchant for cleaning!

S(h)uchitra----Well, she has an insatiable liking for cleaning, dusting, and anything remotely connected to spick and span! She's a spinster and this suits her--she can keep bossing over all the poor innocent kids that enter her house. She is always examining some kid's mouth to see if all her twenty-odd teeth are brushed properly, or looking deep into some kid's ears--ear-wax you see!! You can constantly hear her yelling at her nephews and nieces--"Hey, your left foot's outer corner has a brown spot--go wash it well" or "Don't scratch your head before cutting your nails" or " I can see 1/10th of a mm nail on your thumb, go and cut it off--oh! Wait! I shall do that for you".
Other than these personal grooming supervision of all the kids in the house and outside, she has other idiosyncrasies as well--she always wears her dresses at flood level--that's always a few inches much above her ankles--she says that this is to prevent any dirt from soiling the hemline!
She keeps sweeping off invisible dust from every surface atleast a hundred times a day! She must have microscope lenses fitted instead of ordinary human eyes. When she's around, we can forget our cleaning chores--she takes care...only problem is that she gives us too a once over everytime! Whether we pass muster is anyone's guess!!!!
She has to redo any cleaning after anyone does a job, just to be sure that the job has been done neatly--so why bother--we just dedicate all our brooms, dusters, washcloths, sponges and brushes to her cleaning prowess and delegate her to do all these important chores! Phew!! No sweat--it's unclean!
