“The other day, I noticed I'd arranged my spices in alphabetical order when I was on the phone, without even realizing, and when I was a kid I was constantly cleaning and organizing things - my toys, my sister's cosmetics.” KidsOrderRealizingPhonesMy SisterToysCleaningSpicesCosmeticsAlphabetical OrderOrganizing Things Author:Jayma Mays
“I look at it this way: How much of the day are you awake? You think, "I've gotta get that dry cleaning, I gotta get this going, and this, and this, and this." And all of a sudden it's dinnertime. And then there's a moment of connection with your spouse or your friends. Then you read and go to bed. Wake up and then it's the same all over. You're not awake, you're not living, you're not experiencing. We start early medicating ourselves. We start kids early, on TV and video games and so on.” ThinkingWayLifeLooksMomentsKidsGamesTvsBedConnectionsWake UpVideoAwakeDryOver YouSpouseCleaningDry Cleaning Author:Tim Allen
“I got famous in my 30s. I already had a real life and kids and responsibilities, like laundry and cleaning bathrooms. It's hard not be grounded when you have that. I think, if you get super-famous and everyone tells you you're wonderful when you're 12, it's probably a lot harder.” IfsThinkingRealHardKidsResponsibilityWonderfulHarderReal LifeGroundedCleaningBathroomLaundry Author:Stephenie Meyer
“Most mothers entering the labor market outside the home are naive. They stagger home each evening, holding mail in their teeth, the cleaning over their arm, a lamb chop defrosting under each armpit, balancing two gallons of frozen milk between their knees, and expect one of the kids to get the door.” TwoHomeKidsMotherDoorsArmsLaborTeethEveningKneesMilkMailEnteringFrozenCleaningNaiveLambsGallonsArmpits Author:Erma Bombeck
“Carol Burnett probably had the biggest influence on me as kid. Although I was very young and watched her a lot in reruns, I was mesmerized by the way she transformed, by her physical comedy and the rolling laughter from the live studio audience. I loved her most as Scarlett O'Hara and her well known Cleaning Lady character.” WayWellsCharacterKidsYoungKnownAudienceComedyInfluenceLaughterStudiosTransformedRollingWell KnownCleaningCarolsRerunsMesmerizedPhysical ComedyScarlett O Hara Author:Christine Lakin
