I know it seems like this blog is now missionary complaint central but part of why we let the missionaries move in is because we needed some new blog material. Anyway.
The other day I came home from a demarle party (I had no idea that that kind of stuff even existed) only to find that our house smelled as if a dog had come in and taken care of its business in every room in the house. Knowing that this was an impossibility I lit about a dozen scented candles and tried to track down the problem. Investigation solved. The stinky footed Elder and his shoes. While we have strict rules that no shoes are worn in the house we now have even stricter rules that all missionary shoes are to be left outside. Greg has also taken to surreptitiously spraying the Elder's shoes with odor eater spray. We're hopeful that this will help. And that when he gets transferred the new Elder won't have this problem.
I have also been forced to put up a reminder on one of the bathroom door's on the main floor of the house:
I told the Elders that I put it up as a helpful reminder for them because I don't want to clean up after them. I'm sure they are complaining to their parents about their mean landlords but seriously - they have their very own bathroom. Stop using ours!
Cleaning inspections are tonight. Heaven help me and my particular ways.

After reading this I can't wait to come visit. You really know how to make a guest feel welcome.
PS- Where are my knitted goods?
I working on inventing a Lysol grenade that I can just lob upstairs every once in a while.
It has actually been fun sneaking into the garage and dousing the shoes with Odor Eater when they aren't looking. Would they notice odor eater inserts in their shoes?
I love your passive-aggressive ways.
Hilarious. What are they doing in your bathroom (or the guest bathroom, whatever)?? Couldn't you just buy them a mini-fridge, microwave, and put a ladder outside their window so they'd never have to come down to the main level?
I'm sorry, but you deserve to be sainted for allowing these elders to live in your home. YOUR home. Oh my gosh! I know our church doesn't "do" saints, but come on, stinky feet in your own home? 20 year old boys in your bathroom?? I'm making mini wooden cut-outs with your face and passing them out at church. Saint Kris Tina. Saint Greg. (Or Saint Ross or Saint Dan, depending on your preference)
If you want, I could don my 'cleaning inspection' lady outfit and clipboard, look around, do a lot of 'tsk tsk'-ing and shape them up a bit. Then you'd avoid that awkward lecture. :)
