Wordy Wednesday

23 September, 2009 by halfpintpixie

What does it say about my household cleaning habits that whenever I say “Ok, let’s clean up this room”, Littlepixie jumps up excitedly and says “Woo hoo, Who’s coming to visit?”

Hmmm…. I do clean, really I do (even when we have no guests due), sort of, occasionally, you know how it is ;-) Actually I bought this postcard for the fridge while I was in London at Easter, everyone who calls by is impressed at how well it suits me (and the outfit is virtually identical to my housecleaning clothes, uncanny!):

a_clean_house_is_a_sign_of_a_wasted_life(apologies to those of you who do have clean houses, I’m just bitter and jealous, don’t mind me :) ).

Actually, note to self (BIG note) – Declutter house… one of these days.

    That’s one thing I like about living alone… I can go weeks without anyone seeing my house, and if I don’t feel like cleaning – I don’t do it :D

    Ha! Lily asks me the same thing. And… It’s usually true.

    Love that postcard.

    Hahaha! I love that postcard! My house is clean….just not neat. Ever. And it never looks better than when I have guests coming over!

    No worries. My son claps when I vacuum.
