    Okay, I've had my good laugh for the day!!!! At my house, I blame it on the dogs. I say, "You wouldn't know I cleaned yesterday, would you?" Of course I didn't clean yesterday, or the day before.....

    Hey now!!! what a great idea. I also use the "spray Lysol around" method. IT WORKS...folks believe you have been cleaning, just not in THAT room they are standing in!!

    I am serious. ONe time when I had kids in grade school etc, I had worked insanely to get house cleaned up. It was pristine, excpet I had not been able to get to the kitchen floor. After tracking everything I owned thru the kitchen, it showed mess lolol. OUr garage was off our kitchen. when husband came home, first thing he said was THIS KITCHEN FLOOR NEEDS TO BE WASHED. WHAT YA BEEN DOING ALL DAY!!! ... he was NOT normally this grumpy. SO, I got to sprayiing Lysol in each room, everyone thought I had been wildly cleaning lolol --- to this day, he has NO IDEA!!!! Inventive revenge! LOL
