     I was just in Home Depot this morning and in a bathroom display of tiles, counter, cupboard etc, I was dismayed to see the toilet seat up! Argggh. Pet peeve of mine. I HATE looking down the throat of someone else's toilet. Especially as a lot of people don't bend down and clean under the rim! UGH! Yell

    What a great family you have!! Love the pics!!  I want to see pics of everyone.  I often wonder what you all look like.  Coonie, do you look like a racoon??  Dejaboo.....I hope that's you dog! I already know that faith does not look like a sun flower!  I found that out on facebook!

    I have been very busy this morning shopping and replenshing everything the kids ate/drank this week!  I also had to but my soon to be 14 y.o. son new shorts.  A few weeks ago when I took him shopping for shorts and summer clothes, he informed me that he doesn't do shorts!  Well, 1 day of 90 degree weather made him change his mind!!  Tomorrows going to be 90 too!  I should make him wear jeans.......

    Got my hubbie out the door to work. Now I need to help my daughter a new university grad to gfind a job. Any of you ladies want to take her off my hands.  She is 23, very pretty and has a degree in bussiness marketing.She loves to travel so moving down to U.S. would be welcome to her and her mom.  I love my daughter ladies but I also love to have the house to myself.  OOPs forgot this was the housework thread.Oh well what else is new.

    Mak as a matter of fact, I probably DO look like a raccoon. It seems since chemo, I can't get rid of the dark circles under my eyesSurprised

    Mumayan I'll be in your shoes next year at this time. My DD is graduating with a degree in Early Childhood Education. Hopefully, she won't have a hard time finding a job as a teacher. My DH and I were just talking about the raise we're gonna get when she starts making her own money.Tongue out

    I interrupt this college tuition discussion to make an abrupt announcement!!

    I am about to clean -- well at least significantly "de-pile" my house. I just talked to DH and he is in the car, driving north. NOW.

    He'll be home, HERE WITH ME, tomorrow....... if the wheels keep turning round and round, round and round. [oops that was yesterday's theme song.]

    Mark the date on your calendar. I'm going to clean.

    Could a couple of you swing by & supervise my efforts?? I have no idea what I'm doing. LOL

    I wish I had a house to keep clean. Live with 'friends' One's an old widower, the other's a 32 year old still living w/ Dad. Neither knows how to clean a house or even pick up after themselvs. I have my hands full just keeping the kitchen from sprouting hair. Sorry I sound so negitive. When my friend was diagnosed with breast cancer 5 years ago I used to cook meals for her family, and go clean her house 2 times a week. I ran her to chemo and radiation...her DH wouldn't even go to a doc's appt with her! It got too overwhelming. I still keep in touch...oops, off subject. sorry.

    OK. As per usual. The "house" and it's many piles has me over-whelmed.

    So I'm gonna take Barbe's advice and just clean MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

    That will please him a whole lot more, anywho.

    Welcome Lursa.
