There was some weird looking dirt in those rooms!

Anyway, I got my place 47% clean.

Screw the guests. I'm not asking them to eat off the floor or go peeking in my shower!

that says something along the lines of "Welcome Friends! If you came to see me, come on in. If you came to see my house - make an appointment."

to your aunt...

I feel the same way. I don't like it when people just drop in without calling anyway.

But I always suspect that when they say they came to see me, not my house, that they're really making a mental checklist of the crumbs on the counter and dust bunnies and dog hair tumbleweeds on the floor...

I use a rag. This is AZ, a duster just stirs shit around, you need a damp cloth to catch dust. (if you bother LOL)

I use a damp paper towel. We don't have a lot of furniture, so I'm lucky there.

I am sentimental, plus the ranch is the dumping ground for the whole family (and friends) who can't throw their shit away either. PLUS I let the pets in the house. fur and dust combined with lazy slob equals run out to the gate to talk to people and never invite them in.

It's your home. You work your ass off all day outside. Who the hell wants to come inside and start a whole new workday all over.
