my new hero




While browsing through the bins of forgotten books at the Goodwill Outlet (and the books are not sold by the pound like everything else!), I came across this little book. I had no idea what it was, I was trying to sift quickly through the rubble. It just looked really fun.

Turns out I found a treasure!

After returning to a home that was a bit easier to walk through than when I had left (Thank you Hunny) I sat atop a pile of something other to take a look at my findings.

Can you make out what the cover says? "Cleaning your house while your kids are still growing, is like shoveling the walk before it stops snowing."

And it just gets better from there.

Phyllis Diller, the lady we have to thank for this fabulous little book, is not only funny, but a pioneer stand up comedian, especially for women!

But mostly I love her because she is a proponent of messy houses.
