How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Too Quiet Upstairs

in Uncategorized on 08/21/10

Note to self….if the only noise you hear upstairs is the occasional giggle and some water running, don’t assume your sweet girls are doing something productive

like brushing their teeth and getting ready for bed. Turns out they could be giving poor kitty a tub. If a cat could look angry…that would be his face!

Is it wrong that I think it’s a wee bit funny? One clean kitty that smells a tad like Aveda shampoo, one destroyed bathroom, one lesson learned. If it’s too quiet upstairs, run!

Ahh the joy of a rainy day in the suburbs.

      Poor Kitty… but I have to admit I laughed out loud and thought to myself “been there done that”.
      Gotta love it!

      Sad to say… I did that to my cat when I was their age. I also rubbed him down with Avon Skin So Soft oil… the whole bottle. His coat was shiny for the rest of his life! If the cat didn’t at least tolerate it, you’d hear hissing and meowing… right?

      Oh my kitty so needs a bath but she won’t tolerate it at all! I have some dry shampoo I think I will try on her soon!

      I love that your kiddos did something productive! It could have been really bad! …and I don’t think this is too bad!

Hubby and I will never forget the ferry ride in Lake Como that took us to this HomeExchange in postcard perfect Italy. 
How did we manage to spend almost 2 weeks at this dreamy location without maxing out our credit card? @homeexchangecom

    Squee! It’s that time again — planning another #HomeExchange getaway!
Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.
