Stay-at-Home Oneupmanship

Today I had a facebook conversation with one of my best friends who has a 10 month old. She subscribed to a facebook page called "The Organised Housewife" which turned into a game of "I'm more of a slob than you" oneupmanship (or is that onedownmanship?)

Gen-Y style stay at home parenting. Nothing to be proud of really.

      Lee Don't feel bad. I'm pretty sure I'm the disorganised housewife. Clean the light switches? Hell, I don't even remember the last time I cleaned the floor.

      Vanessa I am consciously ignoring the pots in the sink hoping they'll go away. I would be a terrible 50s housewife!

      Lee  I can beat that. My dishwasher doesn't actually work, so I use it to store dirty dishes until I am forced to do them either because we've run out of cutlery or the dishwasher is jammed full. I don't even worry when the racks are filled. I just pile stuff on top.
