The House Of Lies: What People Try To Hide!

I have finally decided to uncover the truth to the world. This may shock or horrify you, but I believe its time. My own family is guilty of this, and so is most of the world.

Generally, your home is in a state of comfort. That means there may be a few dishes, unwashed, in the basin, some newspapers on the table, some breadcrumbs scattered around. Nothing will be done about this...... Until someone is coming to visit. Then, with the madness of the Dunkirk evacuation, it must be cleaned. Innocent (mostly) teenagers are kicked out of bed, orders flying through the atmosphere. Harassed mothers use flannel cloths to wipe down anything that doesn’t talk back, heavily stressed with a manic look in their eyes.

And I cant help but wonder why.

We are just human. The visitor is coming to see YOU, not a five star hotel. They understand that some people work full-time and don't necessarily have domestic help. Its  unfair to expect a house, any house, to look like a property brochure.

So here it is: HOUSES CAN BE CLUTTERED! ITS NOT ILLEGAL!

I think its time that we stopped lying to ourselves and others. Accept what you see or walk into.

So now, I will have coffee, and leave the cup unwashed.

Yeah, bad ass alright.
