- Put the dishes in the dishwasher. Don't worry about neatness, just throw 'em in. Or, stack the mountains of dishes neatly in the sink. You know, a neat mess is impressive.
- Close the doors. I use this one on the kiddos' room all the time.
- Throw the dirty laundry in that room with the closed door.
- Spray something that smells good. Out of air freshener? No worries, dog perfume works just as well.
- If all else fails, grab yourself a drink, plop down on the couch and look scared to touch anything. Then just introduce yourself as a guest in the house and look slightly horrified by the mess you are being subjected to.

ReplyDeleteHey Cole! Just poppin' in from SITS! This post totally cracks me up! I have a candle handy at all times for just such emergencies! I've also been know to tell people my toilet is broken to keep guests out of the bathroom, lol! :)
ReplyDeleteYou and I clean the house the exact same way! Spraying a nice scent or lighting candles always helps!! If the house smells good it must mean it's clean!! Right?

I love the dog perfume idea! Funny. I often hide things upstairs where no one goes it's the same as closing doors, stuffing closets works too!
ReplyDeleteLove it!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe last one is the best ;-)
