Windows, especially second story windows, are always a problem. How do you get up to do the ouf.- side without having to lug a heavy ladder around? If. was suggested that a tractor and loader can hoist you up there in no time and with the help of a frien- diy farm hand move you from window to window. 0f course if you didn't have the foresight to marry a farmer, that's your problem. Then there's the interminable vacuuming* and dusting. No matter how off.en' it's done, if. neyer seems to look like if. when unexpected guests arrive. If. was suggested that you just leave the vacuum cleaner parked in the middle of the livingroom and a dust clof.h draped artistically over a table, then when someone does pop in you can pretend you were just in the middle of cleaning. It saves endless hours of toil. Laundry is always a bug bear for f.hç working mother, one of the panelisf.s has solved that dilem- ma by dyeing everything black. Just think, the kids can wear an outfit two days in a row and there's no sorting to be done. Every consciencious housewife worries about what to do with leftovers. Its hard to throw out that spoonful of carrots or littie chunk of roast when people are sfarving. What you do is wrap if. up and put if. in the fridge, as time goes on it gets shoved farf.her back until there cornes a day when you find this unidentifiable furry object lurking in a dark From Pg.
