Misconceptions

Just in case anybody has any misconceptions about my housecleaning capabilities, I thought I should post the following pictures to clarify!







Yes, I am a slob, and so are my children. Sometimes I don't get around to cleaning up breakfast until after lunch, and after I have laid everyone down for a nap, and sometimes my floors don't get swept for a while, even though there is an entire meal on the floor, AND, I am a pile maker! I love to have my counters completely barren and clean of all clutter, but more often than not, they are full of piles from school, piles for Ryan to look at, piles of things to remember--which I never remember, so they sit there for a long time. Next time you are looking at your house and feeling bad about your housekeeping skills, just remember that you know someone with even fewer skills than you--Me! I really love it that I can be the one to make everybody else feel better about themselves....and just in case you are looking at these pics thinking, "it isn't THAT bad", let me tell you, they have been FAR worse. This is just the cluttery mess I am living in today!

wow---that's bad? looked pretty nice to me. you could still see the bottom of your sink with dishes in it. i didn't think it was bad until you had so many dishes you had to start putting them on the counter next to the sink! i'm a pile maker too---drives miguel nuts!
