I cannot be alone in this. Now given, I have four sons-- a husband, and I am not the neatest gal around, so there are extenuating circumstances----BUT sheesh! The laundry pile in my garage is a monster! I am truly afraid, that one day, Nick will go exploring out there and get lost. It is never ending. What's worse is that the mountain often has mysterious items in it like, cleats, perfectly folded clothing, belts, empty water bottles, it is very strange. Do you think it is possible that my sons throw clean laundry on the floor, then throw it in with the dirty when they clean their rooms???? No, simply not possible. There must be another explanation.
I am swirling in chaos! Our little remodeling projects, ie: painting the boys rooms, have resulted in a whirl of mess, mess, mess. My husband has been diligently painting walls, repurposing furniture, meanwhile all of the clothing, shoes, toys, junk, furniture we are no longer using, etc... is lining the hallways and rooms of my house! We have tried to engage the boys in this project, but it has somehow eluded them that they have any responsibility for putting the house back together, so it it a painful exercise of command and whine. Today, we must put it back, we cannot start the week in madness. So my day, is going to be interesting. They need to help, a lot. I need to figure out how to motivate them to help, without them feeling like they are being tortured. Wish me luck, at 10:30, video games, and NFL TV go off, and cleaning commences. I'd better have another cup of coffee, and pray for the next half hour, I'm gonna need it.
