Meh… it’s kind of like selfpunishment…I edit and edit before I post ANYTHING…so if I still get it wrong, I just rub my own nose in it. Keeping it real?? Perhaps. Thanks for the tip – I’m going to look so sharp from now on.

You CAN edit your comments — or anyone else’s — on your own blog. Just look for the word “edit”; click, repair, voila! (Or does editing sound too much like housework? )

And, honestly, I wasn’t being rude; I know this is a family blog.

I concur. Really, I don’t know what a antepenult is, but I’d like to take a guess and assume you mean what I think, and so I will just concur and try to sound like a writer should

The last time I got out the broom it was after watching Cuca the cat romping with a dustbunny playmate.
I think for “chihuahuavorous” the primary stress should rightly be on the antepenult, with the secondary stress on the first syllable.

You see? I’m not alone! Bad housekeepers of the world, and vaccum avoiders of Australia, UNITE!!

Thankyou,Lavenderbay, it seems my job here is done! And I wish I could hear you SAY the word ‘chihuahuavorous’..can’t you just picture those chihuahuavorous dust bunnies…they have vampire teeth and messy hair and they ‘vill get you eef you don’ look ouuutt!’

First the chihuahuavorous dust bunnies, then the cream discussion. This following your comment on pussy-who-sits-by-the-fire, and the Search Term Monday running joke. Tears are streaming, I’m howling with laughter after what was an incredibly crummy day (which I won’t post about for at least two weeks), and E.g. wants to know what’s so funny.
“A recipe!”

These are the best hints for an apologetically messy, always reforming housekeeper like myself. Love the denture tablet in the toilet trick. Lol, that is new to me.

Ooh thanks for that! I will come back to this for next time hubby is due home.

I’m having a bad housewife moment(hence my most recent post). Today it is chocolate fudge that is on the agenda! hehe.
