"There are three ways to get something done: Do it yourself, employ someone, or forbid your children to do it." -- Monta CraneSomehow, I don't think that 'forbidding' strategy would've worked with me as a child, but you never know. . . A big thanks to MiSC for today's quote!------------ Hey, MessyMimi and DriverMom--can I still use the excuses about "abhoring" a vacuum or "waiting for one I can ride on" if I can't actually move a vacuum cleaner thru my apartment? Because I hate to let good excuses go to waste. . .

Of course you can use them, Dragon. Whether or not you could use a vacuum or not is irrelevant.
Don't cook. Don't clean. No man will ever make love to a woman because she waxed the linoleum - "My God, the floor's immaculate. Lie down, you hot b*tch." ~Joan Rivers

"Once you get a spice in your home, you have it forever. Women never throw out spices. The Egyptians were buried with their spices. I know which one I'm taking with me when I go." -- Erma BombeckI'm pretty sure I have some spices that have moved with me multiple times. What about you? MM, that Joan Rivers quote is a scream and all too true. If men only desired women for their immaculate floors, I would have had no choice but to become a nun.

MessyMimi, I just love reading your quotes every day! I'm so glad you're doing this with me--it makes it so much more fun to have partners in crime.

"I hate housework! You make the beds, you do the dishes and six months later you have to start all over again. " -- Joan Rivers
I had no idea that all this time I've been following the "Joan Rivers' Housekeeping System." Well, at least that's what I'm going to call it the next time my mom comes over . . .

Dragon, I agree, this is fun!
I think I will try to keep it up for all of April, which is National Humor Month.
I think housework is the reason most women go to the office. ~Heloise Cruse

Iris Murdock, the novelist, who did not clean, once said " it doesn't get any dirtier after the 4th year" (Of no cleaning).

"One day I'm going to get help for my procrastination problem." -- AnonymousIf "one day" was an actual day on the calendar, my to-do list for that day would probably be 10,000 lines long . . . ---------------------------------------------- BTT, worldlygoods, and Butterfly -- I'm so glad you're enjoying this thread! If you ever come across any funny or inspirational quotes you really like, please stop by and share them. MM, your last quote is the story of my life! If I had a dollar for everytime I used work as an excuse for not cleaning my house, I could hire someone to clean my house! Puppybox, your quote brought back some great memories. My grandfather loved that quote and used it often to explain away the condition of his study. (Hmm, wonder why my apartment looks exactly like his study used to look?)
