My friend, hearing this, asked me if people would find my home in a state of perfection when they came over.
I thought about it for a moment, and then a giggle made its way out, as I imagined handing out white gloves at the door, so she and others could search for the spots I missed in my last clean up.
My verbal response to this was, 'It's not about perfection'. I proceeded then to share a few confessions about my home and even my dishwasher, that some may find humorous.
Then a week later, the conversation came up again. A couple dear friends were at our home visiting, helping us enjoy a fabulous meal.
Afterwards we were washing the dishes the topic came up again as my friend went to put the clean Tupperware back into the dishwasher and saw something very unusual.
So, for some inspiration and also 'just for fun', here is one small fact about your local pro-organizer that you may not have known...I keep a calendar in my dishwasher!
Ok, giggles aside, it is one of the things that could be considered 'unusual' about my home. The thing is, we don't use the dishwasher and the calendar makes a handy reference for my fiancé. Besides it takes up very little space. The truth is, when we have guests we do make a special effort. And yes, I can provide white gloves. Yet no guarantees of perfection.
