To clean or not to clean

When she falls asleep, draw a little mustache on her face with permanent marker. I promise the condition of your home will never come up in her stay.

My thanks button is gone.....but Thanks for this great suggestion. She would, of course, kick my a#$ LITERALLY, but it is fun to think about doing it.

Just have fun with some electric blue eye shadow and take pictures.

Sisters you just have to clean their room/bathroom and the kitchen and get what they like to drink.

Moms/mother-in-laws are the only ones who need a full on Martha Stewart clean (after which they will still be apalled by your squalor).

All excellent points...but in the case of my sister, it's accept it "as is" or spring for a beach rental--she's lucky that I don't charge a cleaning fee and bed tax.

In our family it is exactly the opposite. Mom rolls with it. My sister has always been type A squared.
The cleaning is as done as it is going to be, now I have to get to the store for beverages and some nice fresh veggies to roast on the grill. I wish I had gone to Destin and picked up some good cheeses
Maybe she'll enjoy some CheezIts and Mad Dog

Yes, my family is definitely the opposite - Scooterbro's cleaning skills make filling station bathrooms look like a good alternative.

Mama Scooterbug brought her own dishwashing gloves on her last visit. :roll:

Does the Sandestin Chan's have cheese? Chan does good cheese.

I took her to Pizza Bar last night and plied her with muscles, pies and Terrazo Cocktails. All is well.
Bonus: the house is spotless, all five kids that still live at home are going elsewhere starting this weekend and staying elsewhere for at least a week . We will miss them desperately but ChefEd and I have NEVER had the entire house to ourselves for more than 10 hours...and it is clean already so no chores. OMG....a clean house, minimal laundry , dishes, cooking or groceries for a week.
I'm getting verklempt.

I figured you'd be ecstatic.
