Housework Can Be Dangerous

Okay, so if you didn't read the last post (Surprise In the Dishwasher),
just know that the above picture is REAL.



This really is a snake and it really was in our friend's dishwasher after their house flooded last week.




It made me consider just how dangerous housekeeping can be if done properly.



Just today I went to do some laundry and BAM.....................




No laundry today........................




I must consider my safety ........I mean, who would pick everyone up from school if I was dead on the bathroom floor from a bite from this guy?





Then I thought about doing a little dusting since you could pretty much write a novel with your finger on any surface in our house............but BAM.............



EEEK!.....................safety first.





I "WANTED" to cook something fabulous for dinner

but......................................





..........looks like it's another Chick-a Vay kind of night.



And with all this spare time I had left........

since I couldn't do my normal "Wednesday housekeeping" schedule,


I EVEN considered going upstairs for the monthly viewing of "What In God's Name Have The Kids Been Doing Up Here".........



but, alas........................................



Blocked. No upstairs for me today.




Finally, I considered bathing Ruthie since she smells like rotting wet gym socks,

but even THAT plan was ruined.





So I guess I have no choice but to sit on the couch and clean a few Oprahs off the ol' DVR.

I think my friend's snake-in-the-dishwasher episode was God's way of saying, "Take it easy on the housekeeping.........things could get dangerous."
