My house looks like a bomb went off....sigh

[bicentennial_baby]

I don't know where to start. The livingroom and kitchen are complete disasters. x(

On top of that I'm all stressed and panicky today and have no desire to deal with it. :(

Help! :o

1. What happens if you put it off til tomorrow?

There's always time to do housework. Why make yourself crazy?

Or, if you must get something done, try to shove the mess into one area! :)

[bicentennial_baby]

2. Well, I don't want to make Sniffa come home to this disaster

He's out working in the cold, and basically the kitchen is un-useable (the pileup of 3 days of eating and drinking, while being away for a lot of it) and the livingroom is a minefield of papers, gifts, empty boxes, etc.

I'll figure something out, even though I'd rather just crawl into bed. Boo.

3. Perhaps you should distract him from those two rooms when he comes home.

Dinner in bed? :)

[bicentennial_baby]

4. Heh, if only I could get to my stove!

:rofl:

[_testify_]

6. Just fix him a bowl of cold cereal

and meet him at the door naked. It'll work, trust me! :rofl:

8. Hehe...

5. Start with the kitchen.

Me thinks your mood will improve when it looks ready to be sullied with the detritus of new cooking efforts.;-)

Maybe that just works for me. A dirty kitchen depresses me. The dust kittens can own the rest of the place and I wouldn't care.

7. I usually do it the other way around, but...

maybe you're correct. I keep shielding my eyes as I go to the coffeemaker. :P

9. Cover me, I'm going in for more caffeine!

:patriot:

10. If you have empty crates and sturdy trash bags

Then just stuff all the crap into the crates and bags and put those in some closet or garage, sponge the tables and counters then crawl back into bed.

and deal with all the crap another day



or get drunk then clean

[bicentennial_baby]

12. I like the way you think!!

:rofl:

11. Next time, have the orgy at someone else's house

:hide:

13. Get your mind outta the guttah, boyo!

:spank:

14. Me too.

It looks like Santa's Workshop exploded. There's toys and elf guts and wrapping paper all over the place.

[Tektonik]

15. are elf guts vegan?

:hide:

[LeftyMom]

18. No, but the cats seem to have taken care of the problem.

:shrug:

16. 10 second tidy?

from the Big Comfy Couch?

just do a little at a time.... :)

[bicentennial_baby]

17. Update: It is done...

I did the kitchen, then the livingroom, despite my hypochondriac panic. Tomorrow, either the kitchen cabinets or the bookcases. :D

:woohoo:

19. Good for you!

I had the same problem, with friends coming in tonight. I just didn't have the energy. Now, it's done, and they're almost here. Happy New Year!:thumbsup:
