a toss up

we're having quite a few people over tonight.
it's a toss up.
do i sweep/mop before - so i feel like things look "perfect?"
or not?
because within minutes, someone will spill their tea, or drop crumbs from their cake all over.
which is FINE.
but i'm going to have to sweep/mop tomorrow no matter what, right?

a toss up - sweep/mop before OR after (who am i kidding? i'll do it both times.)

i know you'll do it both anyways, but I wouldn't! I'd sweep before they come and save the mopping for afterwards!

i have the same exact thought when we rae hosting. if i have time, i tend to do both. :) i figure the first time is for them and the second is for me. have a great time.

i know that you will do both (i would too), but maybe pat can help you with the one after they leave??!! :) somehow it doesn't seem bad and is even fun to clean up after a party when we are doing it together after the kids are in bed and there are no distractions or interruptions in our conversations! have fun tonight! i am getting out of the house for a few hours tonight with some girlfriends. i sooooo need it and i think that my girls need a break from me! :)
