SOMETIMES I'M TOO STUPID TO GET OUT OF MY OWN WAY

There won't be any photographs in this here post, my dearest stitchy friends. I made the monumental decision to do a little Homekeeping today (*), and after cleaning the kitchen to within an inch of its life, I suddenly found myself with the Swiffer wet mop in my hand.

I'm dangerous with that thing, I tell ya.

Normal people use the Swiffer to wipe up spills, shine the floor, chase the dust bunnies, or to spruce up the joint.

But this is me we're talking about.

I've now trapped myself on my office chair because I had to wash the floors in the kitchen, entranceway, and then finally in here and now I have to wait for them to dry so that I don't smudge them all up with pink fuzzy slipper prints.

Yes, I have literally mopped myself right into a corner.

Progress pictures tomorrow, and I promise that there will be no discussions of anything remotely related to my insanity.

(*) Martha calls it Homekeeping. I call it a major pain in the a**.

  2. At least Swiffer dries faster than paint!

  3. Not a tragic place to be trapped. Although the big comfy stitchin' chait would probably be better.

  4. What about little paw prints on the wet floor? The pc isn't the worst place to be trapped :)
    Looking forward to see your progress pictures

  5. How would you like a vacation in Arizona? I could use someone with your penchant for cleaning and organizing--the more obsessive the better. lol I just had an epigastric hernia surgery and I can barely move, let alone clean anything. I am, however, getting plenty of time in my stitchy chair.

  7. All you need is a pair of those Dust Mop Slippers:
