I just popped to my neighbours house as she invited me for a cuppa.
While I was sat drinking a cup of tea she was running round (to the point that she was actually sweating) taking things upstairs- a battered coffee table, some toys and various other things. When I jokingly asked her if the Queen was coming over to join us she said no, she's taking some photos for Instagram of her house.
Turns out she did the upstairs the other day and removed anything not photo-worthy downstairs and is now doing this in reverse- apparently her followers are expecting her home to be perfect despite her having 4 children. She said that she frequently makes the children change clothes if they have so much as a speck of dirt from playing outside in case she needs to take a photo.
I was quite shocked as she a generally a fairly level headed person, she'd transformed into a total wreck, all for a social media app.
Is this what people are aspiring to?
AIBU to think its all a bit ott?
