   Well, Anne has kids too, so it should feel like home! Totally normal for someone with kids.

   Provided I wasn’t over for a dinner party, this wouldn’t bother me at all! In fact, I’d find it refreshingly honest.

   How do you get needles out of a cushion anyway? I bet some get mostly pushed in and you don’t find them till the cushion is squished down…

   I dimly remember an infomercial for some kind of magnetic device that is supposed to pick up pins and needles easily.
   Can’t remember the name; I really don’t pay attention to infomercials.

    Lynn’s Notes:
    There was a time I’d go into a house like this — where the people took scattered toys, dog hair, and mangled furniture for granted. I’d step over Tinker Toys and half eaten sandwiches wondering how in the world they could live like that! I’d see crusts on tabletops and a sink full of dishes, and I’d think to myself, “How can she stand to live in a house that isn’t clean, tidy, and well organized?!!” … Then I had kids.

    Anne’s house is probably the same only worse!

    A very wise mother once commented, “You don’t really appreciate, understand or even like kids until you have one of your own”.

    I child-proofed my house — but they still get in!

    As the old saying goes, “No house with children, pets, or bachelors stays clean for long!”
