Our home will be bursting at the seams with nearly double the normal 'occupancy' ... ahh yes, THE HOLIDAYS are here.
Sister in law and her family are headed our way from across state. They will be spending 2 days at a local hotel and then one night here. We will be feasting upon great mountains of turkey, stuffing and the like. WalMart certainly entertains our budget this time of year.... food for double families is not cheap! LOL
Besides the blessed food and nourishment that awaits.....we have had our track shoes on running a miracle marathon cleaning and preparing for our family to visit. Laundry piles under control (or hidden away), every last dish, fork and bowl clean and sink polished and shining... the carpets all freshly vaccumed and nar'e a farkle to be found. Beds fresh with linens, bathrooms smelling lemony fresh and floors mopped and clean. Ahhh yes, the clean, pristine home of a family of 7 - soon to become the home of 12 for a few days and alas, the maid will have left the house and chaos shall reign. There will assuredly be clothes, toys, dishes, and other misc things strung from hell to high water and yes...we will all sit back and visit and have fun. Oh and I am certain that everyone will in fact remember that at one point YES the house WAS clean. LOL
Why do we do this again?
HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!
