Susie Homemaker - Friday

You guys exhaust me !!!! Was up early though this morning and have gotten a load of wash done already and have the bedrooms all cleaned and the hallway. Still don't know where Jessi is going to sleep when she comes home. Well, I should say I don't know if her hubby is coming home with her and if I need to make up that bed too. We have bunk beds back there and they usually sleep together in the bottom one. I know, I need to get a sleeper sofa back there but just have not done it yet. Since the cats and I have taken over that room, I take off the good bedding and just cover the bed with old sheets. So that needs done yet. But I have to clean up the bathroom, living room and dining room and then continue with my fondue makings. I will assemble everything today and get out the wine glasses, platters and all. I too have to figure out how to decorate the ice cream cake. They say the icing is half ice cream and half whipped cream but I don't know if that will work for the piping or should I make regular confectioners icing for the decorating? But I am sure it will all keep me busy until dinner time and then the anticipation of seeing my baby when she gets home. Can't wait, it has been since Christmas since I have seen her. Good luck with all the chores you have on your list........Gay

Wow Gay!! Sounds like you have more to do than me today!! About the icing...for the piping, I recommend doing the regular icing. The other probably won't be the right consistency. Just my opinion though.... Enjoy the weekend!!!!! I know you will have a wonderful time. Susan

OMG Susan!!! You are on a roll!! Want to come do my house to????lol I could really use a good house keeper! You sound like just the person for the job...lol. I am ashamed to say it but I rarely get the big burst of energy to do housework. My mother and father comes and helps. My husband is a lazy old fart. Works great on his job but with the drive to Northern VA everyday I can't get him to do a damn thing. My son will wash dishes once in awhile and take out the trash but I have to remind him serveral times to do it. I wish I could quit my job and stay here and get this stuff done. My parents love coming to help me for some reason? My mom at 60 has more energy than I will ever have....lol Lisa S.
