I don't want you to leave here thinking I could never have her over to my house. She'd think I was a total slob. No. I want you to walk out onto my front porch dusting cat hair off your clothes and thinking Well, Jesus, at least I vacuum occasionally. I don't get done as much as I'd like but at least I'm doing better than caro. And she's all right, so I must be all right too.
Many bloggers post photos revealing the details of wonderful domestic surroundings. And I don't know about you, but none of them ever looks quite like my house. So, as my contribution to that genre, I am beginning a series of photos, to be taken as the whim strikes me and posted as I get a chance, to share with you the real beauty of our home.
I call this first one "Hi Daddy."

Ha, what a genius idea! Maybe I will take some filthy pictures of my own, because God knows I have ample subject matter.
ReplyDeleteI may have to join you in this. And you may just leave my house with a bit of dog hair, cat hair, and possibly a chicken feather stuck to you.
ReplyDeleteOh my god, my totally gave me a great explanation for my housekeeping: I am making my guests feel better about themselves! Awesome! As for the pictures, brilliant. I was just thinking this morning that I had planned to do a post showing my house but it's just never clean enough all at the same time, so I was thinking I could photograph the rooms at their cleanest times and save up and post later...
ReplyDeleteYou are hilarious! This is a great idea. When I have taken pictures of my house to post on the internet, I usually go out of my way to clean first. Everyone knows I am really a slob.
