Chaos
Something about the state of the dining room table clutter has a firm grasp on my mood meter. Today I am: a little annoyed at the world. And my table: covered in stuff. But it's good stuff. Party favors, party centerpieces, curtains waiting for some attention, you know, just random stuff. And, because my table full of clutter is dictating my sour mood, I will just go ahead and list some other things that I can't seem to get over today.
Things like:
- Our toilet won't come unclogged.
- Our sink won't drain.
- Travis lost his wallet.
- I have cellulite.
- Lucy has been in time-out at least 17 times in the past 24 hours for bad behavior (biting Miles really hard one of those)
- Lucy peed a huge puddle on the floor today
- Lucy won't let me help her with anything (thus, everything takes twice as long to do)
- Our basement is getting cluttered and messy and needs a good cleaning
- Why the endless laundry?!? I just folded a mountain of laundry yesterday and I already have a mountain of dirty laundry.
- I want chocolate cake but I don't have the energy or patience to make it
I know, we all have problems and mine are insignificant compared to some. I'll leave it to Bono who so wisely said, "Some days are better than others."

Kyle lost his wallet too, or maybe I lost...we can't remember who had it last, but it's been gone for a week and half!!! Driving me nuts that we can't find it.
I have more cellulite then you do, I promise.
Michael's in timeout as we speak. for biting.
Bless your heart.
Thought I would pass on a tip that might brighten a part of your day.
We lived in a condo that was built on a slab. We had tried everything including a snake to unclogg the drain. An old plumber saved us a ton of money.
He told us to put 4lbs of baking soda and 4 gallons of vinegar into the clogged sink. Let it sit overnight. The next morning flush with hot water. I have never had a clogged drain since.
p.s. if the place is oldyour landlord may need to have the main flush out cleared.
I hope tomorrow is brighter
Some days are just this way, aren't they? Here's to naptime and chocolate!
Ask your landlord to snake the drain. In our old house he would have to do that at least 3 times per year with these old pipes in these old homes.
Party favors? Can I come? :) Looks fun. You're always doing something fun and cool.
Laundry--We still don't have a washer/dryer, so we've been doing our laundry at the laundromat. I actually like getting it all done for the week in 2 hrs. That being said, I still can't wait till we get our own at home. Then I'll be constantly doing laundry! It's just the way it is :)
