Blog This: Challenge 23

This weeks challenge is all about your dream home. If time, money, jobs etc. were no matter, what kind of home would you have.

I remember as a teenager being obsessed with this; part of the whole "Oh God, I can't wait til I'm a real and proper grown up, in charge of my own destiny" kinda thing. I would even draw up house plans and sketch out rooms.

Well, since my fellow blogger Alliecat (http://alliecat-alliecat.blogspot.com/2009/10/my-dream-house.html) has somehow entered my brain and come up with my perfect home, I'm going to talk about the things my dream home WILL NOT contain:

There will never be mess in my home, especially of the child-produced kind. Toys will magically transport themselves back into their lair, even if the de-limbed Barbie has to use her teeth to drag herself home. Paint will unspill from the floor and Play-Doh will un-tramp itself from the carpet.

No unmade beds. Ever. Even when we are in them.

Dishes. Ugh. They will NEVER pile up in the sink simply because I've run out of time. The bottom of the sink will open up whenever a dish is placed in it, and some highly technical, never-breaking-down-or-requiring-maintenace machinery will place it directly into it's slot in the dishwasher. When it's full it will turn on and never do an entire cycle before realising it didn't put powder into itself.

That's about it. I think any home that does not contain these three things is now officially my dream home.
