My mother was the queen of this company coming behavior. My Dad, brothers and I might as well have moved out of the house when my mom started preparing for company. We couldn't sit in the living room, dont use the company guest towels, don't sit on the beds etc.<br />She would drive us crazy. Of course a bit of this behavior rubbed off on me, but not to the degree my mom went to.<br />We are too funny.<br />SherrySHERRYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15287372955609491433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081468613531112998.post-27300904374790156682015-03-18T08:13:31.193-07:002015-03-18T08:13:31.193-07:00I used to be the same way you are when I know comp...I used to be the same way you are when I know company is coming. Now that I live by myself the house stays pretty clean, except when I am putting out my decorations then it can be mess. Today I am putting out my Easter and spring decorations. I really like your new header. Have a blessed day.

Picture perfect! She knows where she is welcomed with love. I know you would always be the most charming hostess! I wish I were.<br /><br />Why are we like that, having to ensure everything is "just so!" ? I suspect I learnt from watching my Mother do the same thing. Her hone was always clean, neat and tidy and yet, she would have to do just as you describe. She does the same if they are going away for a night or longer! Everything has to be washed, ironed, scrubbed and spruced and it has always driven my dad mad ��<br /><br />I am also a pyjama girl. I do not get that from my mother! <br /><br />Howard is a wonderful man! I have one like him, too! We are so lucky ��Desnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081468613531112998.post-25801673339856936762015-03-18T05:36:17.043-07:002015-03-18T05:36:17.043-07:00I love having company.
