One of the biggest holidays of the year is less than a week away?! How could I be caught so unprepared?
Never fear! It's under control. Jenn and I are here to help you celebrate.
We had so much fun last year, we decided to do it again!
That's right. It's almost time for the second annual...
No Housework Party hosted by the Coolest
Non-Domestic Mamas on the Block!
;)
This Saturday, April 7,
is a very important day.
A day where women all over the country lay down their mops, clap their
dishpanned hands together and exclaim…”Today is No Housework
Day!”
You, my dear readers, get to be part of something very
special. In celebration of this most
glorious day of all days on the calendar Jenn from Coolest Family on the Block and myself are teaming up to host the
second annual No Housework Party
! Oh yes.
Not much will be different for
Jenn and I since we avoid housework every
chance we get…but for those of you dedicated domestic goddesses…we’re giving
you the day off!
This Saturday, April
7, stop by and link up your post.
Here are a few writing prompts. Get creative!
-How are you celebrating No Housework Day?
-What do you do instead of housework?
-Tell us about that time you tried to clean something and it
backfired on you.
-How did you become a Domestic Goddess / Domestically
challenged
-Share your housekeeping/organizing tips and tricks
-Confess your mess…be brave and show us pictures of your
messy house
-Tell us your most/least favorite chore
-Why you hate/love housework
-How to you make housework fun (or at least bearable)
-Do your kids help with the housework?
For the Domestically Challenged
Do you hate housework, are you no good at it, or are there
simply just not enough hours in the day to do it all? You’re not alone. All over the country non-domestics just like
you are sweeping the cobwebs aside (figuratively…we don’t sweep for
real, silly!), stepping out into the world and declaring, “I
hate housework!”. We’re
walking right past our piles of organized chaos and confessing to the world, "I am Non-Domestic" and “I
have better things to do than dishes.” Join us on Saturday
to link up any of your domestically challenged blog posts. Show us what you do instead of housework, how
you plan on celebrating No Housework Day, or tell us about that time you tried
to clean something and it backfired on you.
For the Domestic Goddesses
If you’re reading this while wiping your computer screen
with a special cloth…you probably need to declare a holiday more than any of us
(put the cloth down and back away, you weirdo!). Can’t take off a day of cleaning? You might feel like you don’t belong here,
but you couldn't be more wrong, my friend!
You are welcome to link up any of your housework posts…make us feel
guilty and show us your tips, tricks, and lovely organized closets. We’ll call you a show off and give you a ;)
winky to your face and then we’ll probably talk about you behind your back…but
seriously, you’re totally welcome to link up!
Start planning how you’re going to celebrate No
Housework Day (or if you’re a non-domestic...procrastinate and try to
come up with something at the last minute ;) ) and then meet back here at Non-Domestic Mama or at Coolest Family on the Block on Saturday to party!
See ya then (leave your broom at home!)
You can also party with us on Twitter at #nohousework
where
@nondomestic and
@coolfamilyblog will
be hanging out instead of cleaning, and
follow our Non-Domestic and No
Housework boards on Pinterest!
