Note to mothers of boys.
1. Please make sure boys know what detergent goes into the dishwasher. Especially if they are kind enough to try and clean their girl friends parent's kitchen after cooking. Skidding through suds are only fun when you're six. Really.
2. Only a mother of said boy, wife or significant other should see his drawers on the floor. Just saying.
Please note: boy is actually 24. Don't get any nasty ideas about my letting my "young" daughters sleep with their boyfriends. I may be progressive but not that progressive.
3. Dumping beer bottles into your recycling bin every, single, night - not cool. We have neighbors. I'm strange enough I don't need to be known as a beer guzzling menopausal woman. I personally bought bubble wrap and asked them to wrap the bottles before they threw them in the bin. Bubble wrap is recyclable. It's also good for getting your angst out or flamenco dancing. Face it, it's about as good as popping a zit.
4. Every man should know how to clean a bathroom. No, hear me out. Every man should know how to clean a bathroom. It bears repeating. Every man should know how to clean a bathroom. David doesn't. His mom failed. I'm beginning to wonder about the boy. Not that I'm suggesting any lack on her part. She'll probably end up being my daughter's MIL. We want happy family holidays. Not interesting but much less stressful.
Just some helpful hints. Thankfully, the boy and the daughter are moving out the end of this month. I wish it could've been sooner (sorry my darling girl, pain in the butt, beautiful one) but in our world the economy sucks so it seems to take a little bit longer than when I was young.
Don't worry, David loves me and is hiring someone to come in and clean the bathroom. I just can't touch it. Some diseases aren't worth being exposed to even for a clean bathroom.
Happy Father's Day to all those great men out there, especially those who clean bathrooms.
