Mrs. Cleaver Syndrome The week is over; the weekend is here. I have used the last of my vacation days for the year. No more days off until my anniversay hire in date which comes in the spring. I will spend today routine cleaning, doing laundry, one "big" chore like cleaning the stove, grocery shopping, and finally taking a big breath and saying "that's enough". I realize that I am a throw-back to the mentality that says it should be my birthright to stay home and just "take care of the house." In today's ratrace I have a good job, but my house always needs cleaning. I know, I do set my priorities, that is why my house always needs cleaning. But sometimes, I just want to be Mrs. Cleaver. To be able to scrub my house until it shines, to cure all the worlds problems with warm cookies and have a wise answer for everything. I know if this were to be my lot, I'd be bored silly after a week or two, but just sometimes I want to be Mrs. Cleaver. |

Ms deVine you are "spot on" the best of both worlds would be having mrs cleaver on for all the drudge work, and come home to a clean house, dinner cooked and a plate of warm cookies.... [This message has been edited by abbe (02-08-2003 10:53 AM).] |

It might not be boring if Mrs. Cleaver had an occasional visit from Mr.Klean. ![]() |

LOLOLOL @ Mr. Clean and Mrs Cleaver. Now THERE'S a sight! I wanna be Mrs. Brady. She had a husband who made enough money to do EVERYTHING they wanted, she had a maid, and STILL didn't have to work (not that I can remember). I could find enough busy work in life to keep boredom away.... *Sigh* |
