This is the BOX of garbage from cleaning my girl's two rooms. Yep, that is old school work, clorox wipes and "treasures". Don't judge me because I am a not a "keeper" and please don't tell my kids I threw away their alpha-friends. I washed their bedding, dusted all the furniture and knick-nacks, went through their closets, clorox wiped blinds, dusted ceiling fans, vacuumed the edges of their rooms, wiped based boards, and dejunked closets and under beds. Special thanks to my mom for helping me and teaching me you can't measure love by the number of elementary school art projects that get kept.

My goal for tomorrow:

Make some popcorn balls
Actually work out

My goal for today:

Clean girl's rooms-DONE

Reverse treasure hunt to the garbage

My goal for today:

Convert old desk to a bookshelf.
DONE!

First Day of School

When did those kids get so old? Because I know that I am not getting any older. I am . . . . let's see I was born in '79. . . . . um I was 18 in '98. . . . . Hell, I am somewhere north of 30 and south of 40.

Something Funny

My little Ava is best friends with the little girl across the street. Actually scratch that they are like little soul mates. Today that cutest little girl kind of told me I was fat. Normally I would be sad, but since I love this little girl like she is my own, I just smiled and thought to myself how lucky that she feels comfortable enough in my house to speak her mind. I hope she always feels that way. Then I went and did a quick sideways glance in the mirror and then cracked open a Diet Coke.

Wishing

Just wishing this was in my near furure again!!!
