Philosophy of Housecleaning
I don't do windows because ... I love birds and don't want one to run into a clean window and get hurt. (I am compassionate.)
I don't wax floors because ... I am terrified a guest will slip, hurt themselves, I'll feel terrible and they may sue me. (I am careful and poor.)
I don't mind the dust bunnies because ... they are very good company, I have named most of them, and they agree with everything I say. (I am imaginative.)
I don't disturb cobwebs because ... I want every creature to have a home of their own and my family loves spiders. (I am kind.)
I don't Spring Clean because ... I love all the seasons and don't want the others to get jealous. (I am fair-minded.)
I don't plant a garden because ... I don't want to get in God's way, He is an excellent designer. (I am courteous.)
I don't put things away because ... my family will never be able to find them again. (I am considerate.)
I don't do gourmet meals when I entertain because I don't want my guests to stress out over what to make when they invite me over for dinner.
I don't iron because ... I choose to believe them when they say "Permanent Press". (I am trusting.)
I don't stress much on anything because ... "A Type" personalities die young and I want to stick around and become a wrinkled up crusty ol' woman!!!!
