So this was in the Boston globe, and if I hadn’t read it myself I would have thought it was an Onion article. The lady wants walls again because now when she is working in the kitchen, her husband is in full view sitting watching TV and doing nothing. When they had walls, she was basically less aware of how ignored she was while being a hard-working woman and housewife. They don’t need walls, they need a marriage counselor.

Okay, but also: the walls are there for a reason.

In particular, the kitchen walls are there so that you can leave the kitchen messy when entertaining guests or having a meal (to the point that some open floor concept homes have a second, secret kitchen called a mess kitchen). The walls of the kitchen confine smells to the kitchen area, so your sofa doesn’t smell of bacon. Mess spreads from room to room.

Noise too, travels in an open floor concept. You’re confined to a bedroom or outside to make phone calls, listen to podcasts, etc. etc. without disturbing the rest of the household. The minute someone needs to cook? The entire house becomes unusable.

Open floor concepts have higher heating (cuz drafty) and cooling (kitchen) costs. They also require ALL of your decor to match if that’s a thing that’s important to you.

The noise and mess spreading in particular seem to me they could exacerbate marital problems. Do they need counseling? Oh yeah. Does the house make for a less hospitable home, that puts stress on a marriage? Yes.

my GOD does sound carry in an open floor plan.

The only doors in my house are the ones to bedrooms, bathrooms, closets. And when I’m in my first floor bedroom, even with the door closed, I can hear everything that goes on in the living room and kitchen, and half of what goes on in the dining room. I hate it.

i have always hated the look and feel of open plan homes, especially as they’re touted to be more ‘modern’ and ‘sophisticated’ and ‘high class’ so i gotta admit that it feels great to hear that the people inhabiting them are having a bad time

There’s an old Italian saying: “It pricks early that will be a good thorn.” :)

Somebody had better consider locks for the kitchen doors…

[captain-snark]

this ain’t a lie. My brother’s cat had kittens so we adopted two of them and one of them is the tiniest of the litter but was the first to open her eyes and move around and she was the one to lead the litter into mischief.

And it shows.

She’s 6 months old now and the Sassy lass will wake me up in the middle of the night wailing like the house is on fire and timmy’s fallen into the well and she comes into the room dragging a toy behind her. 

Her hobbies include accidentally getting trapped in closets and gving dirty looks when you kick her off the counter for the 9th time.

People Are Sharing Pictures of Their Furry ‘Colleagues’ as They Work From Home

[my-adventure-begins-here]

As protests continue all across the United States remember that it IS okay to protest at home. If you are disabled or ill or cannot go out and physically protest for another reason PLEASE do not feel guilt. You can be just as active from your home by doing things like: Sharing BLM posts, sharing posts on how to protest safely, sharing posts about medical resources in your area for protestors. You can also educate yourself and others. Amplify Black Voices, and donating to bail out funds or other foundations. Do NOT feel bad if you can not physically join the protests. You CAN still stand with the movements.
