Who Needs Nose Hair Anyway???

Trying to run a greener household is doing my head in

I am using all these biodegradable, save the waterways type products

and go through bi carb and vinegar like nobody's business

and the house is apparently clean at the end of a cleaning session

you will note I said clean and not tidy

and for the record dust bunnies are like pets 

how could I destroy them when they are having such fun

hiding and playing under the cabinets and sofa

but aside from wanting to form the Preservation of Dust Bunnies Society

I have run into another problem

At the end of the day the house just doesn't smell right

I always felt that a bathroom in particular was only clean

when the smell of bleach had singed all nose hair from your head

after all does nose hair matter in the grand scheme of things???

I think not ...

and I loved my feet having the slight burning tingle from standing in bleachy water

and the bleach has gotten rid of your pesky fingerprints

which have always limited my possible career as a bank robber

and at the end of a good session that brain blasting smell meant a job well done

but alas I have had to wave goodbye to my dear Domestos and White King

and have to just trust these green products when they tell me they are working

so my new cleaning involves using the green stuff

and then sitting down and drawing and painting the bottles

I am thinking I can gaze at their bleachiness and pretend I have no nose hairs

and maybe that will induce the same sense of domestic satisfaction

Not that a lot of cleaning has been done in the last few days

mainly because I have been trying to get to some unfinished canvases

and I can happily report that I finished one

it is the teeniest, tiniest canvas I own, but I am taking any finish at this stage

so the prawns are done and on the wall awaiting some possible finishing touches

but I am still declaring it done all the same

the other five are still in various stages of not even close to being done

but I am putting this progress shot up in the hope that it shames me into finishing it off

which means that once this is posted I am going to make a pot of tea and get busy

So I am taking my hairy nose and going to get my painting butt into gear

hope you all have an awesome weekend... xx
