Housekeeping Tip
These words of wisdom come from a friend who loves Maxine of Hallmark Card fame.
I think this is one of Maxine's best bits of advise: Always keep several get well cards on the mantel..... so if unexpected guests arrive they will think you've been sick and unable to clean. 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl

Re: Housekeeping Tip
Hi Beady,
I have heard that one before with the addition that the company will vacuum and clean for you. I am getting get well cards soon also. Do you think someone who reads this wants to spot clean my rug? Joan River's - throw sheets on everything and tell your company that the painters are coming any moment. Hyacinth Bucket |

Re: Housekeeping Tip
Leave your vacuum cleaner out. It looks like you were just about to clean or cleaning when they arrived.

Re: Housekeeping Tip
Hi,
Why not leave all of our modern day cleaning supplies out. That way someone will know that you are planning to do a major clean up or just simply say "It is the maid's and butler's day off and I am at a loss." HB |

Re: Housekeeping Tip
It's been so long I almost forgot this. My Grandma Annie used to pretend she had an imaginary maid named "Mary". When people would come over unexpectedly, she would call "Mary, Mary . . . where is that lazy maid." Then she'd ask people to forgive the mess and swear she was going to fire Mary. I was a little girl and really believed there was someone named Mary for quite a long time. My Mom and aunts used to laugh. They were quite a nutty group of women -- kind of like us! lol :joke:
