I will be the first to admit that I'm not overly house proud and that my place can be a bit of a tip at the best of times - the joys of living on my own; no-one to mind except me. Esp the kitchen / dining area becomes a dumping ground for everything and on the weekend I usually blitz through and get it all back to ship shape and then it all starts again....

And oh dear - got a call this morning from my SIL to say she was not far from my place and would it be OK if she let herself in to use the loo? which of course isn't a problem - but she's a clean freak. I don't even want to know what she was thinking when she walked in and tripped over two boxes of stuff I'd ordered and collected yesterday; but not moved out the way (I'm not home, so no need until I get home this evening). Yesterday I made the most of the warmer weather and sat outside with my laptop, a glass of wine and some food until about 10pm; the house could wait (obviously not)!

oh dear oh dear oh dear

Aww Ria, don't worry. I hate it when people drop in without me having a tidy round and cleaning the bathroom, but tough! This is your home and you are entitled to take your time and enjoy your glass of wine in the sunshine! What's the point of anything if we can't grab the nice moments as they come long? Tidying can wait!
I'm sure your SiL was just grateful to have a wee I know I would be

after the winter/spring weve had
the garden takes priority
and if your SIL tidys up
you can sit outside tonight

Good thinking there Saundra.

Like your thinking Saundra

It's your home Meriad, enjoy it.

When I look back at pictures of our house in England, compared to how we live here - it's poles apart

But I was working full-time and like you, things got left until the week-end.

Now every day is the week-end

Aw Ria I must have a go at my bathroom .....er...sometime

Thankfully the bathroom is the one area that tends to be tidier (well sort of) because I have the cat litter boxes in there so the floor gets swept at least once if not twice a day

LOL - I texted Nadine to apologise for the mess and said I hoped she had survived the mess and she sadly hadn't volunteered to clean up Saundra - tut tut tut

That's exactly what I was going to say I wouldn't have cared less about the tidiness or lack of it
