Acceptable Mess And Unacceptable Mess
Wednesday, November 10th, 2010Acceptable Mess And Unacceptable Mess
I have to confess I always find those photos in the glossy magazines about housekeeping to be horribly out of touch with reality, especially the reality of having children and pets. One particular case in point was one article where various designers had to comment on a house that was decorated in pure white for everything - sofa, carpet, walls, cushions, the lot. Did the designers say that it looked horribly sterile and lifeless, and that it was totally impractical and would be completely ruined the first time someone spilt the tiniest drop of coffee or red wine? Get real!
The other thing about these glossy-mag homes is that they always look like museum exhibits. Everything is “just so”, even children’s bedrooms (I suspect that the children in question were sent to Grandma’s for the week while the photo shoot was done).NFL adult Jersey NFL youth Jersey adult version of baby female version version of NFL Women Jersey3, sizeWe can distinguish from the size of the formulation jersey.Fans Edition (including offset and advanced version) size is along these lines: S, M, L, XL … ….Youth version of the wording is: Youth S (8-10), Youth M (10-12), Youth L(12-18), Youth XL (18-20).

Peg Bracken, in her delightful I Hate To Housekeep book also sneered at “designer mess” ‘the feather boa across the back of the chair, the opera gloves draping a first edition Shakespeare in an attempt to make a house look lived in.
But a house does need to look lived in. To be friendly and welcoming, a home needs a certain level of untidiness - but not too much. It needs acceptable mess, but not unacceptable mess.The Lady Raiders will be collecting donations while playing in specially designed pink jerseys throughout October.The “Dig for the Cure” campaign was started in 2003 by Charlotte Head Coach Lisa Marston, whose mother was a breast cancer survivor, and has spread toMLB baseball Jerseys volleyball programs across the country in recent years.It’s great to see all this support for a worthy cause — on a local and national level.If interested in making a donation to Southampton Academy’s effort, or for more information about the event, call Volleyball Coach Terry Bell at 653-2512 or e-mail her at tbell@southampton academy.org.
Examples of acceptable mess include laundry hanging on a drying rack in a corner, a book (or three) with a bookmark in on the sofa or coffee table, or a couple of plates and cups sitting by the kitchen sink ready for the next washing load. Unacceptable mess, however, are things like dirty socks lying around the floor (hear that, other members of my family???),As a team, the Pittsburgh Steelers not only with their current opponents, but the new team in the NFL and the upcoming many challenges.

Here are another handful of examples:
Acceptable: spider webs with live spiders in them in a discreet corner. Unacceptable: dusty old spiderwebs filled with fluffy bits of old insect long abandoned by a now-dead spider.
Acceptable: wooden blocks or Lego on the floor in an elaborate castle, city or other layout. Unacceptable: Lego, wooden blocks, three dolls and a teaspoon scattered chaotically all over the living room where you have to watch your step or risk impaling your foot on shattered plastic.
Acceptable: the pullover or jersey you took off earlier today (and are going to put on once the sun goes down) on a chair in the bedroom. Unacceptable: that jersey, plus three pairs of dirty socks and a dubious pair of underpants on the chair (and the owner of the socks going “where are all my clean socks?”).
