That's a bit different than casual....

hey! my feet only stick to the kitchen floor if I don't walk fast enough!

liz young in sunny california, who really ought to mop the floor
sometime soon

Yep, Sandy is ok. I find I mostly agree with her too.
If we could get her straightened out about politics
though..... VBG

Some of you are Organized w/ that capital "O",

Some of us can create in the midst of confusion,

Organized environment. So be it.
Some quilters have Sewing Rooms. Some of us don't,
and this someone doesn't want one, either. G I like to
quilt around the house, be creative thru'-out the house, and
clean when I get to it.
Y'all make it sound like we live in filth if we create in havoc.
Not so; we do as we do, all kinds of us, all types, all personalities,
all kinds of homes.
I'm never embarrassed to invite someone in; my house is as clean
as I need it to be; and I have many, many quilts to show you;
c'mon over. No one has ever caught a major disease in my house,
so far as I know ;-P
but they've seen lots of Finished Quilts.

Please tell me that all of you are *kidding* when you talk about how
rumpled your sewing rooms are.

Thank you for saying that, Bev! I also try very hard to keep things
neat and to keep up with my housekeeping- including the sewing room.
With my disability, if I let anything get out of hand I don't have the
energy and strength to play catch-up with the cleaning. I end up
hurting myself physically. Clean-up as you go is so much easier. I
have seen some on this ng talk about filthy floors and their feet
sticking to the floor..... I only hope they are joking or
exaggerating..... ugh.

I may have been one of the people admitting to that.... although I was only
half joking. With 3 little kids and 2 large dogs (and extra kids and dogs
from time to time) it is inevitable that on a daily basis at least PART of
my tile floor is sticky!
I vacuum downstairs daily, spot mop as needed and do a big giant mop the
whole kitchen/bathroom/entryway tile floor the fewest times possible!

I HAVE a quilting/art studio in the house, but most of my stuff gets done
where ever.... sometimes chaos makes it easier to create and somedays I have
to have a sparkling house first....

Carry-out prime rib? Was one of the single dudes along
or did you meet him there?

Sticky floors? No way, not w/ dogs in the house (or on the
back porch). VBG
Btw, I never bother to flame anyone; why waste gas? ;-D

Exactly what I was going to say. I don't have kids, but Stuartdog (and
the late SimonDog did too) has regularly visited the homes of friends
with young children.

On more than one occasion, after all the food has been cleaned up from
under the high chair and under the kitchen table, a friend has said to
her DH , "we need one of those!"

Of course, I always agree, since I think MOST families need a dog.

Jumping on the bandwagon here, I vacuum all carpeted areas 1 or 2 times a
week (usually one, sometimes more if, for example we are holding a
party/having dinner guests), I vacuum and mop the tile areas once a week
too, more if needed. We may have toys hanging around underfoot, or
magazines scattered across the lounge coffee table/chairs but at least we
are "homey" and welcoming. There are no "don't touch thats" in my house.

They should be careful what they wish for.

And if a visitor wishes to cut an article out of one of the magazines,
using your sewing scissors, you say...?

Couldn't resist. And... BTW, we don't have to worry about dust on the
tables, because the wood is always covered by magazines and newspapers.

I'm on my Way!!!! just give me the directions. Organized, well to some
I would be considered very organized to others well I am told it is
manageable confusion. My studio is where I can trash if I want and not
have to worry about a thing. So if the floors are piled high with
clippings, threads and scraps of fabric or paper who cares???
Even when my kids were young it was organized clutter. The entire
house was our 'work' area. Not even the bathroom was a sacred place.
(Thanks to silly soap).
Of course you are always welcome to bring those quilts here... I
don't think they would mind being lost in the confusion.
