(It's unheard of among fastidious housekeepers to expose anyone's body to file wrong side of a sheet.) Align the top edge of file sheet with the edge of the mattress and arrange it evenly and smoothly on top of the bed. Now toss on the blanket, right side up, bound edge toward file head of the bed and down about three to four indies from the top edge of file flat Move to the head of the bed and fold the top sheet back over the top edge of the blanket and tudc that portion in under the side of five mattress at the head of the bed. Move to the foot of the bed and tudc in the entire bottom edge of the blanket under the mattress. Move to the comers at the foot of the bed and tuck the comers under the mattress. For the neatest and most secure tuck, you'll need to do a socalled "hospital comer," a lot easier to demonstrate than to describe, so you'll just have to watch someone do it Unfurl the bedspread from the foot of the bed, arranging it evenly above the floor all the way around the bed. Move to the head of the bed and fold the bedspread back to leave about a foot or more of the bedding exposed. Slip new pillowcases on the pillows, pillow tags to the seam of file case, and align them, open ends toward the sides of the bed, about two indies below the fold of the bedspread. Now bp the top edge of the bedspread over the pillows and flip die whole thing over, smoothing five bedspread up and tucking it under the pillows and straightening file bedspread to lie down evenly.

A snarl began deep in my throat. "It isn't right for something to be bom just to die," she continued. I wanted to ask just how she knew that for an absolute feet I wanted to ask if she thought I was a member of five idle rich. I wanted to know if she'd seen what a clever Idd could do to that cute kitten that Mommy just brought home. I wanted to know if homeless cats were more important to her than homeless children. You're right. All pointless questions. My fixed smile trembled under the stress of control My mind is a clean slate. It is empty. "You have to save them all and take care of them," she said. I could not respond without violating Moab's first commandment: thou shalt not contradict the customer. I am silent fried chicken out by the door for her," she said as she turned "Well, I'll just leave this away. I escaped, sputtering. And since those who argue prove nothing A sensible men does not argue. A sensible man is wiser than he knows. While a fod knows mare than is wise. Therefore a sensible man does not devise resources; The greater his use to others The greater their use to him. The more he yields to others, The more they yield to him. The way of life cleaves without cutting: Which, without need to say, Should be man's way. -- Lao Tzu j IT'S A GREAT JOB BECAUSE OF THE TOURISTS They do the strangest things sometimes. Once some foreigners left a bottle of Downy and liquid Tide in file freezing compartment of the refrigerator. What? And all the dean glasses from the cupboard were in the waste basket Go figure. And then there's the old couple who left some dried paper towels in the doset Yes. About 6 sheets of used paper towels, which had obviously been soaked in water, carefully dipped to a dofiies hanger. Dry. Clean. Neat Scary. What I really don't like are the tourists that give me advice. I don't need it since I already know everything. Just ask my husband.
