Unexpected Blog Company

I am the person who has to have the house clean with everything in its place when we go away on vacation. Don’t worry, it doesn’t happen that often.


I really can’t relax well until the house has been cleaned. (Although I'm more about everything in it's place, rather than sanitized)

I like to be ready. For what?? WHO KNOWS!

In my married life, I would say the amount of drop-in guests with no warning who actually came into the house not just stood in the doorway have been maybe 5 ...... total.

(WHY am I so worried about the house??)

I am slowly getting better. Some weekends I wait until Sunday to clean. During the week, I do minimal household chores. Just a load of laundry every day, bed is always made, dishes out of the sink, and all surfaces have been Windex-ed at least once. With a few other odds and end thrown in.
SO MUCH BETTER. Really.

That’s some background for you.



Here is my dilemma of late:

What if, in my dream world, I get picked for Blog of Note?


What if I had a crappy post, I am selected and all the visitors check my blog out BEFORE I have time to post something worthy??

Do they warn you beforehand? Do you get a 30 minute head start??

This is not a far-fetched issue. Some of my favorite blogs are ones I found because they were Blog of Note!

I worry about this. Especially when I am on a streak like this past month.

The good news is that if I am going to get noticed, NOW would be the right time since half the country is buried in snow, and half is in bed with some sort of sickness, at least a post is better than none/less competition??

Have you ever had unexpected company? Do you worry about this? If you had someone stop over RIGHT now, what would you HAVE to put away?
