A lot about nothing

Random Funny picture

I felt like writing but don't have anything big to write about. Instead it is the ramblings of a busy Mom :) Hopefully I will not put anyone to sleep.





We had a very nice and uneventful weekend. However we did enjoy dinner with friends on Sunday. That is always nice. Today we had Princess G home from school, she is not feeling well. It was so hard to decided weather or not to keep her home. I know that there will times that she is much sicker then she is today. It is a balancing act with her. In the end I felt bad for sending her to class, so as soon as the bell rang I went to the office to get her excused for the day. When I went into her class her teacher was happy I had come to get her, she has been worried. When Princess G gets sick her skin goes almost a grayish color. It is the first sign of trouble. So her teacher was more then happy to excuse her from class. It was a nice day though, just the girls home.





So I have to admit a down fall I have had. I hope that there are Moms out there who understand where I am coming from on this next point. I have not been the best house keeper since my kids where born. Which is sad because my house was almost perfect before I had kids. A week ago I decided I could no longer take it. I felt for me that I have no excuse. I have two kids in school full time! And I am home now with Sunshine. So a week ago I decided enough is enough. I started in cleaning my house. I have cleaned and organized so far, my bathroom, the kitchen, the guest room, and all three kids rooms, the loft, and the living room, oh and all the other bathrooms in my house. I still have my bedroom and closet, the office, the laundry to catch up, and the pantry. But i am so excited because I feel I am getting closer everyday to meeting my goal of a neat house. I have to say though that my favorite part is not only have I cleaned these rooms, but they have stayed neat and clean for almost a week now. I know Wow a whole week. But for me that is a start. It feels really good. So now you all know my secret. Hopefully sharing will keep me on the straight and narrow :) Only time will tell. Also Alan and I have decided that our house is too big for us. We thought we would have more then 3 kids at the time we bought the house. Funny how life just happens. I hope no one thinks any less of me now that my secret is out :)
