Over the years we have always told everyone that if you are coming to see us that are door are always open and we welcome freinds and family alike to come and visit. Now that my my children are grown, I am beginning to wonder if I should keep this open door policy. I am mad today. I really hadn't wandered into the back end of the house where the "kids" bedrooms are since before the holidays when I was cleaning and preparing for the visits. I have told them in the past to make sure they clean up afterthem selves and prepare the rooms for the next guests when they are getting ready to leave so that i just need to fix a few things and clean the bathrooms. I am having guests tommorrow and went backt here tonight and dam it not one single room is clean-dirty clothes in the floor and unmade beds and what not. I am going to have to work my but off tommorrow after work to get things ready fjor guests. As it is I feel stupid about them coming and we still have the windows boarded up and broken cabinet doors and such from when difficult child went off now on top of that it is a mess!!!!!!
I am embarassed to say that my house is a mess but I thought that it was semi clean so I wouldn't have that much to do. Next time my kids want to spend the night -I should charge them a dam "cleaning up after your lazy ass fee" or make them put down a deposit and they only get it back IF the room is clean when they leave. I would have never done that to my mom--I always made sure the room was clean and ready for the next guests--the dishes were clean and put away - the kitchen floor swept - the living room picked up and the bathroom was picked up and laundry in the hamper or IF I had time to do it before I left.
It is not that I am lazy but I got hurt years ago and have nerve damage so in order for me to do it I have to have either --done it a little at a time , over a period of time or jump in ,get it done, have the next day off to recover so that I can take enough pain medication to handle all the pain.
UGH!!! Sorry guys just needed to *****
