I am bothered when they are at the house because I can't relax - I feel like no matter what I decide to do they will interrupt me with a question and I will need to be prepared to answer. I am a bit like your children in that I want to watch what they are doing. But they do not care about the condition of our houses or anything else that we are doing. I talked to a cable guy about it one time and he said that most houses he goes into are absolute disasters and he doesn't even think about it anymore or think about what the people are like. <abbr><em>Kim Woodbridge´s last blog post..<a href="http://www.kimwoodbridge.com/how-to-embed-flickr-photos-in-your-wordpress-posts/">How to Embed Flickr Photos in Your WordPress Posts</a></abbr></em> This is great – you verbalized what so many of us feel.

I enjoy people but I loathe having someone in to do a fix-it. I gave up trying to make the house look respectable. I seem to miscalculate all of the areas of the house that'll be on display. Our water tank is in the only closet on the main floor. So it's bedmates with shoes, coats, gloves, hats, shopping bags, brooms, mops to supply a family of five. There is no possible way to organize that area and keep it looking decent beyond the first 'find your shoes and jacket' shift. The last person that had to open that door to do a repair guffawed uncontrollably. I give up. The last time I had someone in to do a job I made my husband take the day off.

Clean, or at least pick up the house, before we have a contractor show up. Like, do they really even care? I'm thinking they're only seeing the dollar signs from the job. What you do is the same thing I do. I'm always afraid I'll miss them and then have to reschedule for another day-and then wait AGAIN. I love the part where you wrote, "...but I left a couple of toys on the floor. I think they call this “staging” in the real estate business." That's precious. I love your humor. :) P.S. I hope you're feeling better. <abbr><em>Barbara Swafford´s last blog post..<a href="http://bloggingwithoutablog.com/like-bees-on-honey-learn-to-attract-comments-to-your-blog/">Like Bees on Honey - Learn to Attract Comments to Your Blog</a></abbr></em> Hi Tracy – Why do we do that?
