Having a 13 month old who gets into EVERYTHING and empties his living room toy box numerous times a day does not help my already in-need-of-a-good-scrub-down house. My house is a constant wreck! And not just from clutter... although I HATE clutter. It would be really awesome to have a play room.......... ah, maybe someday....
Seriously my kitchen floor hadn't been mopped in who knows how long until I finally got fed up and did it at 8:30 last night once Max was snoozing. I really try to keep up on it and give my house a good cleaning once a week. Wellllllllllll, it seems like I get it half clean once a week and then I am interrupted by Max waking up or trying to get into the cabinet with the cleaning products or throwing food onto my freshly cleaned floor. It seems nearly impossible to keep it clean! Let me tell you, when I get a free hour, the last thing I want to do is pick up a sponge and some 409. I wanna take a bath... or catch up on my recorded shows in peace.... or drink my coffee while browsing pintrest without worrying about Max supermanning it off of the couch, again. Since I don't have a "real job" it's my job to not only take care of Max but the cooking and cleaning as well. I freaking hate cleaning. And cooking for that matter. I actually only enjoy playing with Max. That's it. I wish that was my only responsibility....... unfortunately we all need to eat. And not live in filth. Bah humbug.
Here is a list of what needs to be done around my house:
-Clean mudroom
-Vacuum & dust living room
-Organize the junk & clutter that has gathered on the computer desk
-Clean bathroom
-Vacuum & dust both bedrooms
-Start laundry
Here is a list of what's going to get done today:
-Play with Max
-Fix Max lunch, dinner, and snacks since breakfast is already out of the way
-Take shower when Max naps
Oh and maybe cook husband dinner too. Or he can eat leftovers. Yes, leftovers. Are all of you other SAHM's living in a clean organized home?? If your answer is yes, keep it to yourself. No one likes braggers. Plus the rest of us may feel like punching you in the throat.
LOL...My house has never been clean since having my first 14 years ago! Not only do I have to pick up after the kids, but my slob husbands well. I'm a HUGE OCD freak, but have gotten to the point of just going with the flow and throwing my hands up. I figure once my youngest turns 18 I will finally have a clean and uncluttered house............Wait nope, I won't I still have that pesky husband who I swear is my 5th child!
ReplyDeleteoh yeah, then there's Mike! haha oh well. I have let my OCD go (for the most part)
ReplyDeleteYou're not alone! HAHA! I'll have my house looking awesome while Mabes is napping and then we leave to get the girls from school at 3:00 and at approximately 3:07 it looks like a bomb went off. Oh well, they're only little once. :)
