This Little Piggy Went to Market....

We are renting our house out for Market, so I have been a little out of pocket blogging. It takes a lot to get ready for this. We have family that rent their house so they gave me all the inside information on what to do. Basically, make our house look like we don't live it in. No cruddy corners, cleaned out drawers and closets. Fresh crisp towels( I had to go buy new ones, no one would want to use the ones we have), clean out refrigerator etc. etc. Can you imagine? We have two children that have dirty hands all the time! As I type, my house is as clean as it will ever be again. It almost doesn't feel like our house any more. I will admit that I have a "Monica closet". Did you ever see the friends where Monica, the clean neat freak had a dirty little secret? The closet that no one could go into, it was so stuffed with junk that it about self-imploded. Well, that closet is in Marschall's room. As I started to panic on Sunday before our people were coming, I started throwing things in his closet, dirty clothes, clean clothes, hampers, toys, towels... you name it got put it there. Surely, our people won't go snooping, if they do...a self made bomb may go off.
This is the first time we have done this. So far, it has been a good experience. Our people are only staying 4 nights, so it is not too labor intensive this week. We are all staying down at Pete's parents house, which is actually a little treat. We have a ton of help with the kids and meals!
I use to say I wanted to run a bed and breakfast, not so much anymore. I really don't like handling other people's dirty towels and making beds that other people have slept in. Don't get me wrong, they are very clean. I don't know, maybe I am a germaphobe. I just like our own germs and dirt.
Well I gotta run before the place goes to pot again.
