You know when that tiny popcorn husk-thing gets stuck between two of your teeth, and it just about drives you over the brink? (That sounds a little like a Roseann Roseanna Danna bit.) 
Well, I have things like that that bug me in my home, as well.
I’m pretty easy-going and can stand quite a lot for a while, but then I snap and scamper through rooms, righting wrongs and muttering under my breath. I mean, really, am I the only one capable of changing a light bulb?
So, here are my current Top Ten Home Rants (current, because they can change in an instant):
10. Burned out light bulbs (I’ll bet you thought that was #1.)
9. Dust
8. Mail/Paper–not the green, spending kind
7. Scuffed walls (usually due to me and a certain lack of grace)
6. Dirty carpet (especially if I’m not sure what the spot is)
5. Dog hair (not on the dog but in small tumbleweeds throughout my house)
4. Oak cabinets (Forgive me if they are your favorite. There is nothing inherently evil with oak, but almost every house my husband and I have owned has had oak cabinets. I am so done with oak.)
3. Recycling on the counter (It is 10 feet to the garage and the bin, yet still it sits on the counter.)
2. Short baseboards (Petty, I know, but baseboards should be in proportion to the height of a room. Don’t builders know this?)
1. Stacks (I am guilty as sin on this one. My name is Jamie, and I am a stacker.)
What are your home rants? Get them off of your chest. You’ll feel better.
