Ever Have one of "Those Days"
I feel like I have had "one of those days" for a whole week! Work has been busy, Dave has been gone, Haley is at Youth Conference, and my HOUSE IS A MESS! I can't even seem to catch up. I think the kids go behind me and mess up everything I do. I get home from work every day and do 3 to 4 loads of laundry, the dishes, and pick up the upstairs. I get home the next day and all of that is undone, and I start all over. I can't wait for school to start! At least if I come home when the kids get home from school I can prevent messes before they start! Maybe then I can catch up! I had everything under control at the beginning of the summer. My house was so clean I had to search for other things to clean! I cleaned out drawers, under couches, organized bookshelves and DVD's, steam cleaned the carpets, cleaned out my closet, and even went downstairs (I hate going in the basement - not sure why) and ultra cleaned the whole family room down there(Reagan would have gotten much better grades last year if she had turned in all of the completed homework I found shoved in various corners in the family room). So the count down begins..... Only 2 weeks til school starts and I can get my life back in order!

Wow, Steph. I am impressed. I have never once in my life had to LOOK for things to clean. There is always PLENTY to do right in front of my face! PS-I read your past posts and you have inspired me to update my food storage. I have lots of wheat, milk, honey, etc...but my 90 day supply of everything we normally eat is getting used fast. Thanks for the inspiration. Can I borrow some of your energy??
Steph, if I were as organized as you, I might have more kids! :) Don't tell mark we are done!!
I'm sure my mom is excited for our school to start too!
haha :-)
Oh please Steph. You need to come visit my house again some time! You'll feel much better!! I feel good when I get all the laundry done. That doesn't stay that way very long eather! Your house is ALWAYS beautiful! You have alot going on.
You should see my house right now. I got home yesterday from "big girl's" cousin camp with Katie & Madi. While we were gone, Brad, Ben, & Lacey (especially Lacey) have been partying all weekend. Lacey has set up "house" in just about every room & has dragged out every doll & doll accessory she can find or create. There is not one clean room in the house (well - maybe that little bathroom by the office) - and I have a pile of laundry to do. Oh well - like you said, school starts soon enough.
