On keeping house
Shirley Keller PARK-LQN.p.kit.lfi$T
FLYNN — McCOVVAN
Face the facts;
you're surrounded by
hazards as you work.
Too many men and
women get hurt, just
because they don't look
after themselves on
the job.
The secret is to
work defensively.
Sharpen your
self-defence — it pays off.
Maintaining a !louse isn't .one
of my favorite pastimes. To turn
around a line from one of last
year's Glen Gaisipbell movies -- I
forget which one -- housework is
like sex because you've never
finished.
I don't know about the rest of
ralls but my house is a haven of
everything and everyone except
Elbow Grease. I think scrubbing
and polishing is a real waste of
my time and consequently my
home never has had and
probably never will have that
band-box appearance.
I'm the kind of a woman who
can sit down and put her feet up
and watch television despite the
fact there are dishes in the sink.
Depending on the calibre and
the personality of my guests, I'm
not in the least upset if someone
arrives in my home to find it in a
state of complete disarray,
That's just the way I am.
My husband, bless him, isn't
that easy-going. He likes to see
the house neat as a pin and
what's more, he'll actually go to
work to put it that way if I'm
having one of my lazy streaks.
That's embarrassing for me. I
don't mind letting things go for
a day or so at a time but I just
can't stand seeing my spouse
grab a scrub pail and a mop, It
makes me feel guilty.
And that's probably the
reason I'm in such a state at this
precise moment. As you read
this, my house looks as though
there *as been a party for
three-year-old • rough-necks in
every single nook and cranny ....
and I'm too tied up at the office
and with outside commitments
to go hbme and tidy up. What's
more, I'm- developing a sore
throat or some other such
miserable ailment.
I don't know why I bother
you at all with my problems
except I've learned quite
accidentally that at least one of
my readers is wondering what
sort of a housekeeper I really
am. Well lady, I'll be honest. I'm
a perfectly, horrible housemaid
and ifit wasn't for my nagging
husband, I'd probably clean up
only when I got the urge ....
seldom.
There„ is some comfort in the
fact' there are other women who
are as undo mestic as I am, Take
my neighbor, for instance. The
other day her little son brought
home an extra guest for lunch
and my neighbor was floored.
Not because she didn't know he
was coming! Not because she
didn't have enough macaroni!
My neighbor didn't have a clean
plate , in the cupboard and was
forced to wash one in order to
make another setting. That's the
height of frustration, believe me,
especially with your husband on
deck to view the whole
unfortunate incident.
I've discovered that this
column generally reflects the
mood I'm in .... and more often
than not, it is about the subject
which is uppermost in my mind.
Needless to say, I'm darn well
bothered _-by my messy domain
and I'm suffering my own kind
of private hell today because of
it.
Do men have any idea how
fortunate they are? They leave
for work in the morning, earn
their dollar and return home at
night to a hot dinner, an orderly
house and , a relaxing evening
with wife and family,
When you are a working
mother, you can come home to
a sink full of dishes because the
kids have a football game and a
student council meeting; a mess
of unpeeled, uncooked potatoes,
no quick-frying meat and just 25
minutes until zero hour; a pile of
washing and a basket of ironing;
a meeting at the school at
p.m.; and a pile of mission
The bristles of a toothbrush
are the most important factor in
selecting for your individual
needs.
Hard bristles are best for
those who have healthy, strong
gums. Soft-gummed people
should use a medium-textured
brush to stimulate and improve
tissue tone, so should those who
have to clean crowded or
crooked teeth.
Those who suffer from
bleeding gums should use a
multi-tufted or soft brush, which
also can be used for stimulating
poor gums, cleaning such
appliances as bridges and for
those whose mouths are still
sensitive from recent oral
surgery.
Electric toothbrushes give the
gums better stimulation, but the
ordinary hand brush is just as
effective a cleaning tool.
However, both are almost
useless, unless a proper brushing
technique is used — and
frequently.
The trim of the brushing head
should be straight as there is
more chance of injury to gums
with uneven bristles. Heads with
five or six tufts in length and
two or three wide produce the
best results. A large brush
doesn't reach all areas of the
mouth adequately while a small
one doesn't do enoughssItarl
length should cover three teeth.
The handle of the brush
should be straight and aligned
. •
league letters from the church to
address and mail .before
morning,
.1s it really any wonder that
you throw up, your hands, make
a pot of coffee and go watch the
re-runs of the Hillbillies to settle
your nerves?
Most days I'm on the ball,
Most times I just wade into the
situation and conquer as much
of it as is physically possible.
Today, I'm just not up to it. I'm
having those maddening mixed'
feelings of wanting to overcome
and not caring to begin. Let's
hope tomorrow is better!
with the head. Both natural
bristles (swines' hair) and nylon ,
do the job, but natural bristles
absorb water and shouldn't be
used for consecutive brushings.
Two or three of these should he
used in a day.
Nylon bristles have a more
uniform texture, better
resilience and dry quickly. The
stiffness of natural bristles varies
while nylon ones are categorized
into soft, medium, hard, and
extra-hard textures. —Canadian
