Housekeeping 101 ~

I knew I should have
been more diligent
about sweeping
the floor
 and
cleaning
the refrigerator
it's all in
the hindsight

That has made me laugh.
Having spend the day with a duster in hand I can now sleepy assuredly knowing my house will not fall down nor rot.

Hope your week is great

Good to see you're still doing housework the way that I taught you!

I have a little sign in my back hallway that says
"You may touch the dust, but please do not write in it."
I wonder if that's where it all begins. =)
Thanks for the smile!

Love this Susan. I have been so meticulous about keeping the new house spotless - all the while knowing it won't last. I'll soon be back to my regular self. I hope it doesn't fall apart too quickly thought :-)

Ha! Love it.

We just hired a guy to come and re-grout the shower. (Previous guys came and said it doesn't need to be all re-tiled; just re-grouted.) Anyway, some tiles were loose, so he took them off to re-glue them and found mold back there. Now it's going to be a lot more expensive than just doing new grout.

But your words and photos gave me a sense of humor about it all. :)
