Cleaning...crumbs, laundry & kids
I threw my back out playing wii fit. Go me! lol so just watching the house go down in flames quickly. I don't think the sahm's roll is full appreciated until she is really sick or injured. I fully admit that I am not the best homemaker and with 4 kids things can go from "clean to scream" as I call it in a real hurry. So as I heal my mission is always the same NO CRUMBS. I loathe crumbs I can not stand to be barefoot in my own home for the better part of the last twelve years because getting crumbs on my feet makes me crazy. I don't know where they all come from. I sweep and sweep and sweep but they are always present. I truly believe that kids excrete crumbs. You can take a seemingly clean child out of the tub and crumbs will fall right off. For added fun since moving here we have a new issue pine needles. we have 17 trees and needles everywhere they get tracked in and then not only do you have crumbs but you get stabbed by those pointy little needles. you would think with several inches of snow I would be rid of them. NO, they are just wet and stick to your shoes even more. Extreme? some think so...I got a leaf blower and I try to blow all the pine needles as far away as humanly possible. Now could I open the back door and blow all the crumbs out of my house? I am considering it. Now issue number 3 is laundry. It never stops ever. I don't think I have ever not had laundry to do. I try to have a system of assigning everyone a day and the 7th day for towels/sheets but it never seems to work out that way. With diaper laundry, school uniforms, special care items, accidents.. Oy! What I need is a plan of attack. I need to kick house-butt and take names. So to my mere 3 followers (lol) help me out.. give me a game plan..help me help my kids to want to help me lol..
