- Unless she is holding a deadly weapon, there is never a reason to fight back. Ever. It's called being a man. Flight, not fight. 2011-06-28

I am quite regular about trying to keep my living space absurdly organized and clean. Every now and then I’ll fail to wake up in time to ensure that I can make my bed before I leave the house. The dog I live with right now is a total sweetheart. She’s quite the guard dog and knows to respect boundaries. She does have trouble with “hiding” her bones. She loves to sit on the edge of my bed during the day because the sun hits it giving her a great spot to get a warm-nap-session.
If by chance I don’t make my bed this little puppy will “bury” a bone in the sheets of my bed. I usually do a spectacular job of falling asleep without moving my unfixed sheets or fixed sheets. On those occasions I don’t make the bed and go to sleep, I’ll run into a small bone with my arm or leg. In the middle of the night I am reminded that I didn’t make the sheets and I get to experience a rigid hard thing sitting in my bed. For a male, it is not the experience we ever look forward to. Ever. Usually I throw it out the door of my room in the morning. Respectfully, now I try and make my bed every morning.
Let me know if you experience something like this. I bet there’s some more great stories along these lines. Of course, I’m looking at the glass half full. You may need to as well.

I couldn’t agree more. As a newly single person, again, I didn’t realize how much work went into actually maintaining a house until I was alone. The cleaning, maintenance, the yard, all of it. It’s easy to get complacent and put things off. We all do it. But by doing a little bit here and there, every day, will allow you to keep things neat and tidy. And because you’re keeping up with things, you don’t have to worry about appearances when you have unexpected company.
