Dust if you must.

[Jemisa]

LADIES!!!

Remember ... a layer of dust protects the Wood beneath it.

'A house becomes a home when you can write 'I love you' on the furniture .'

I used to spend at least 8 hours every weekend making sure things were just perfect - 'in case someone came round. Finally I realized one day that no-one came round; they were all out living life and having fun!
NOW, when people visit, I don't have to explain the 'condition' of my house .
They are more interested in hearing about the things I've been doing while I was away living life and having fun.
If you haven't figured this out yet, please heed this advice..

Life is short. Enjoy it!
Dust if you must ........
but wouldn't it be better to paint a picture or write a letter, bake a cake and lick the spoon or plant a seed, ponder the difference between want and need?
Dust if you must, but there's not much time . . . ...
with wine to drink, rivers to swim and mountains to climb, music to hear and books to read, friends to cherish and life to lead.

Dust if you must,
but the world's out there with the sun in your eyes, the wind in your hair, a flutter of snow, a shower of rain. This day will not come around, again.

Dust if you must, but bear in mind, old age will come and it's not kind...

And when you go - and go you must - you, yourself will make more dust!

I keep a crowbar by my front door.

People don't say anything even if they do think it's dusty :)

That's a lovely poem, Jem.

I'm not a house proud person, I like to see it tidy though & I like to think any one that visits feels comfortable.

Three thing my old mum used to say... "Make sure the beds are made -
The washing up is done, - & The fireplace is cleaned. You then can welcome anyone into your home. . A bit old-fashioned now but the princible is the same.
