I've slipped into a completely different mind-set.
My house does not have clutter.
It has.... character! :)
dented or otherwise damaged cans, what do you do?
This article in yesterday's paper caught my eye. Looks like mould to me. But. Forget the sensational headline for a minute and focus on the can. Notice how it's a little blackened around the bottom rim? I'm not sure it shows, but it looks like the can has been standing in wet conditions, the wrapper looks a little wrinkled too at top and bottom. Was it like this when it was bought? If yes, why buy it? If no, then how was it stored in the home environment? Use by date. Usually irrelevant, unless the can has been opened. We all know that once a can is opened the contents need to be used immediately, especially baby foods. She mentions somewhere in the story that the contents appeared "a bit runny". This happens when food is given to the baby directly from the can, (or jar) with saliva from the baby's mouth being transferred to the contents, which then begins to break down the molecular structure of the canned food. This isn't immedia...
My studio has so much character I can barely move!!
ReplyDeleteGood one.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely character filled here too.
ReplyDeleteThat's the way to look at it! You go, girl!!!
ReplyDeleteMine, too, has loads of character! I think I'll ring up "Better Homes & Gardens"....they will be able to put on a a two-hour special about all of our character-filled abodes!! :)
fishducky; I'd like to see that :)
ReplyDeleteMargaret-whiteangel; I thought it was a brilliant move, a brand new look at things.
Elephant's Child; I like character filled houses, there's so much to see.
Lee; if you do phone them let me know so I can run the vacuum around, maybe a mop too.
A good mind-set. I've always been a weird housekeeper,
ReplyDeletecaring more about the outdoors.
Yep; attitude is everything. Our house has character out the wazoo. And I'm not getting fat, either... I'm getting fluffy.
ReplyDeleteHaha...everything can be justified with the right attitude.
ReplyDeleteBelva; I like the outdoors well enough, but I like my indoors to be comfortable and if that means vacuuming once a year, then that's what I have to do.
ReplyDeleteSusan; I'm not fat either, I'm comfortably huggable.
Cheryl; sometimes finding the right attitude takes a while, but we get there in the end.
My work room out here has so much character you almost get lost in it. There is a sign on the sliding door that says DISASTER AREA as a warning to anyone entering here.
