...obviously never did any housework. It is Saturday and my day to clean the dang house. Today, however, it's turning out to be a dragon I'm not sure I can slay.How is it that you can live in a place, look around, and be satisfied with it's cleanliness, but when company is coming all the sudden it is a cluttered, dusty shack not suitable for habitation.
Needless to say, I've spent the last 4 hours cleaning my house and I still have a list a mile long of stuff I want to clean, dust, sweep, vacuum or wash before Mandy gets here. The upshot of all this is that no matter what I do, it will still be a 70's-era cabin by the lake with orange carpet and ONE BATHROOM. For Daniel and I, it does just fine, but when we have company it gets a little harder. (We love having company by the way)
Well, we do the best we can I suppose. The hardest thing is figuring out what to do with Daniel's sword collection. Mandy's kids are 3 and 2 and we don't want them getting hurt. I can see 5 swords from where I'm sitting, and the kids would be able to get at or touch 4 of them, so they will all have to be moved. I should have made Daniel collect stamps.
I am so looking forward to this visit from Mandy even if I don't get my house up to "company standards". I hope we have a great weekend. And I hope Mandy's expectations aren't too high. :-)

Totally don't worry too much about any of this. I am betting it will be even messier by the time we leave. I spent all day Saturday washing walls and I couldn't believe how dirty they were and how many little finger prints were everywhere. We are going to have a great time no matter what. Can't wait to see you.
