Have I mentioned how much I appreciate indoor plumbing?
ughhh...
"When you really feel like screaming, cursed with too much to do and too little help, remember that in manor houses of Edwardian England, the lower-ranked maids' daily duties included emptying and cleaning the family members' chamber pots with a vinegar-soaked rag kept for this purpose."

Someone had to do it. I always thought if I lived back -whenever, I would like to be rich or a princess, or whatever, but I would most likely be the one cleaning the pot. :)
Yeah me too Julie... So its fortunate for both of us that we are living now with the joy of indoor plumbing :) But I bet you still get to clean the toilets...yeah me too...
