big sigh of relief
last week i came to terms
that my house will never be
as clean and immaculate
as others
and then…
we made plans to have company
while they don’t care a smidge
about my domestic skills
(or lack thereof)
when someone comes over
i take the opportunity
to tidy up
at least a little
and that can be a good thing
however…
i could get used to this
seeing the top of the dining room table
having some place to put things
on the kitchen counter
not having to move things
out of the way
to turn on the TV
(stability balls interfere with the signal from the remote)
finding no hairballs in the corners
etc etc etc
but don’t worry
this is not the demise of yet another horrible housekeeper
just a blip in the radar
