Embarrassed if anyone came over and sees our house (it’s been 10 years)
4/10/2009 at 9:56 AM
I promised my wife I would post this , so new year 2005 extreme cold , pipes burst in basement we get about a foot of water , called a Plummer , there is crap literally floating in basement , my wife is running around the main floor , cleaning , picking p stuff just short of dusting. I am socking wet ask her what is up with you crazy women, what are you doing.
Same thing comes out of her mouth that always comes out.” I am too embarrassed to have anyone over” …
It’s not like we live in a barn. The Furniture is les than 3 years old , hardwood floor so no carpet or carpet stains, what she is complaining about are kids toys, Box, or boxes my stuff , that will be in and out within a week ( work ) , paper work on kitchen counter , cloth on banister that type of stuff. NO food, dog crap, dirty laundry, muddy shoes, I am not sure whet else … but nothing like that.
Every women I talk to about this, or ever place I go, its hello please come in
“Excuse the mess” even if the house is spotless and you may be able to eat off the floor. Ladies and the few men out there RELAX, it’s OK, you live there, it’s not a show home or a gallery and if you have kids it will never be
Any comments … remember I need help making the wife feel better, so if you’re not on my side start your own thread. :-)
