Hint taken

A conversation a few days ago...

Mike: "When are your parents coming to visit us?"

Me: "Not for a while since we will be heading their way in a month or so, and again later in the summer for my cousin's wedding."

Mike: "Hmm. Guess it will be a long time until our house gets a good clean."

Me: "Grrrrr. Ha ha - very funny."


Today, after we had some church folks over to our house for a class...

Mike: "Aren't you glad I rescheduled the meeting for here instead of at the office? Now we have a clean house!"

Me: "Wait a minute... did you do that on purpose?"

Mike: "Uh... no."

Sad, but true. I had let our house go with all of the hecticness of summer. Why is it that having people over is about the only way I would get motivated for the deep clean that it needed?? Y'all, I even cleaned baseboards! [mom, aren't you proud!] In his defense, mike did help some.

Subtle Mike. Subtle. Maybe cleaning the house should be like flatulence..."he who smelt it dealt it" - "he who seeth it, cleaneth it"! Novel concept. Get to work Mike!

Ha, this is so funny, because recently whenever we are cleaning up the house, my 6 year old ask me "Mom, who's coming over..."
