Behold, I live and breathe
and even as I type, DW is in the next room muttering foul words about
the children as she scrubs the "muddy mark" off the carpet. She is on the third bottle of strange cleaning fluid from the cupboard under the sink. I'd love to help but as soon as I were to mention "it could be oil", she'll Know. Such fastidiousness; she hasn't even taken her shoes or jacket off since returning. The Mark was spotted and full decontamination mode was entered. Will post about CM later. Am off to offer glasses of wine and change the subject by talking about how warm the weather is for the time of year. |

Let's hope she never sees urc (or the Google archive of same) then. -- This post contains no hidden meanings, no implications and certainly no hidden agendas so it should be taken at face value.

Just don't spill the wine, especially if it's red! that's easy; a bottle of white (easy but heartbreaking; white wine vinegar will suffice) |

Ahem ... that information is highly relevant to the cleaning process and should not be withheld. I agree...if your wife is attempting to remove a 'muddy' stain instead of an oily stain, she might be making the problem worse through using inappropriate cleaning materials. I have had to confess to similar misdemeanours in the past to prevent a temporary minor stain becoming a permanent major stain. It is always easier to beg forgiveness than to seek permission (to fix oily dirty things in the living room). It got me a shed, it might get you a slapping ;-) |
