My solution?

I am just going to stop inviting my realtor over. That's it. Seriously. She suggested....are you ready for this? That I "remove the 80's looking papasan chair" from the living room. (ok, in her defense she said it a little nicer than that.....it was more like "is that staying in here?" Mom I am sorry she said that about the papasan chair that you bought John (in the 80s) but rest assured I stuck up for the piece of furniture that I never use as a chair anymore and just put things in there that I have to put away.....you bet I did. (that was a long run-on sentence sorry...too early to correct it) I told her just how comfortable it was and if she were to sit in it right now the dust mites that are in the pillow would comform to her body and she would fall instantly asleep they way I used to in college just a "few years ago" when I would visit John in his dorm.

John, the kids and I are going to be working this weekend. I am optimistic that we can get everything on our list done and then after the paint dries, the floors dry (John decided to remove the paint by sanding the back room by the guy that did our living room), and when the papasan is sold, our house will be on the market.....pronto.....

ps because I know John peeks here from time to time, Honey, this is your wife NOT NAGGING rather simply reminding you, again X10, to please bring my camera in from your car. If not for me, do it for the people who read my blog....think of them...
