If you feel a disturbance....
 

...in the force, know it is because I have disrupted an extremely delicate ecosystem.....damnation, I had to dust the furniture today....:1rotfl:

Just felt compelled to issue a warning.....:D

:1rotfl:

Thanks for the warning. :girlneener:

Gonna be even worse...I washed the bathroom curtains!

Say it isn't sooooooooooooo.......

:clap2::clap2::clap2:

What is TV coming to, dusting, washing curtains?? I thought we left those chores where we come from.

On Halloween????? Y'all tryin to scare the bejesus outta me? sheesh

A friend I used to ride horses with, knowing my aversion to housework, sent me this poem years ago. I have it posted on my fridge.

Dust if you must, but wouldn't it be better
To paint a picture, or write a letter?
Bake a cake, or plant a seed;
Ponder the difference between want and need?

Dust if you must, but there's not much time,
With rivers to swim and mountains to climb;
Music to hear, and books to read;
Friends to cherish, and a life to lead.

Dust if you must, but the world's out there
With the sun in your eyes, and the wind in your hair;
Sunny all day, or a shower of rain,
This day will not come around again.

Dust if you must, but bear in mind,
Old age will come and it's not kind.
And when you go (and go you must),
You, yourself, will turn to dust.

Great poem! Alas, this time I Really, REALLY, REALLY needed to dust...:22yikes:

Not me Pooh
 

My dust is still intact and it will be for a good long time. I refuse to be a polluter.

:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Well, we've been here 7 years and the cleaning fairy hasn't shown up once! Wonder where the heck she is?.....so you understand why I really, REALLY had to dust...:D

Sorry Red...be on the lookout!!! :D:D

It doesn't help to dust. It'll just come back.

I blame my incidents of atmosphere disturbance squarely on visitors--the ones I invite on purpose to force me to clean.:throwtomatoes:

. . .and I cleaned my refrigerator!

...once a year whether it needs it or not:shocked:

Yep

I just advise anyone that the dust is a scientific experiment, thus.....do not disturb

My dusting skills are such that I would not impact the eco system. :smiley:

Old adage. " House should be clean enough to be healthy but dirty enough to be comfortable"

A house becomes a home when you can write "I Love You" on the furniture.

Sorry but that is something that will never fall out of favor. We clean extensively once a week. I am by nature an orderly person. I cannot sit in a room until it looks as if no one ever used it. Somebody STOP ME!:D

That's kind of sad, Rubicon. I guess I can never invite you to my house.
