First impressions a second time ROFL

[Lissa]

My mum would laugh, but I've become a little bit of a neat freak, so cleanliness is a big deal for me. I remember the first time I went to my boyfriend's house (he's 19, and lives with his family cause it's better than paying rent, I'm only 20, there's only a 10 month age gap) I just about fell over. They're not very tidy people, it's not like they leave plates of food everywhere, the place smells fine, there just isn't much of a clear surface anywhere, and their dog likes to play with laundry so his sister's underwear is sometimes in the middle of the living room. My boyfriend's room was a total wreck, but he's started to clean it up, maybe I'm being a good influence on him I know I can't change him, I've accepted the fact that if I marry him I'm gonna be the one doing most, if not all, of the cleaning...

And it's always nice to walk into a house that just plain smells good, so if it smells bad that's a terrible first impression!!
