Housewives have come a long way since the days of Leave it to Beaver. June Cleaver in her always pristine dress, pressed apron, string of pearls and perfectly coiffed hair was the model mother and wife. It was a true make believe image that was impossible to live up to though many housewives envied that type of perfection.
The Bingo housewife of today most likely relates more to Lucy in the beloved I Love Lucy series pulling off some amazing capers with a touch of June Cleaver thrown in. Sending the kids off to school with a proper lunch and making sure they have on clean clothes, shoes are tied, hair is brushed and a good breakfast starts the day.
Then it's time to send the husband off, raising one eyebrow at his crooked tie and handing him his brief case as he walks out the door because once again he forgot it. Makes you wonder how he would ever get through a day if not for you.
The dog is fed, cat litter boxed is cleaned, breakfast dishes are thrown in the dishwasher and the roast is thawing on the kitchen counter for tonight's supper and now its B-I-N-G-O time! Making a mad dash to your favorite online bingo site you kibitz with roomies while the auto dab marks your 90 ball and 75 ball cards.
It's a winning day with a Coverall that pays a nice chunk of change and the best part of it all is you don't have to share it with anyone maybe not even your husband as think about those shoes you have had your eye on for months! Time flies as you suddenly look at the time on your laptop and it's nearly 4:00pm. You have approximately 20 minutes before the hubby comes waltzing in with kids in tow after picking them up from school.
Out comes the mop, vacuum cleaner, glass cleaner and the load of clothes that need to be washed. Like a mad 500 yard sprinter the Bingo housewife scurries and gets it all done in record timing. But she is not done yet because she needs that modern June Cleaver look and heads for the shower, dresses and puts her hair in a perfect knot on top of her head.
In walks the gang as your husband asks what's for dinner. You back up into kitchen and check the roast that should have come out of the oven over an hour ago. You're caught red handed with a burnt piece of meat between your oven mitts! With a pouty look you tell him you were distracted cleaning all day long as he grabs a cold one and says at least you didn't burn the beer!
