Well so much for Monday cleaning
I love to clean on Mondays. I find it the best day to spruce everything back to place after a reckless weekend has ended. Who wants to waste Saturday and Sunday doing chores? I want to have fun! Family Fun! And most of all enjoy my two days of morning bliss, where my wonderful husband wakes up for morning baby duty. When I hear that cry at 6 am and know that I don't have to budge. BLISS comes over me and I feel like a queen. But back to Mondays....cleaning. I love mondays, kids off to school baby in bouncer and the smell of lysol fills the air. However, today is not that day. Today I deal with runny noses, painful swelling, and cranky crying. At least the weather is inline with the kids. Cold, windy, and rainy is all I see when I peer out the window next to the desk. The wind is actually blowing so hard that it looks like a hurricane. No wonder the two hours I slept last night I dreamed of tornados. So here it is, the real WA that I have been not so waiting for, rain. I now regret not buying rain boots. But I need the funnest pair and even though I have found them I couldn't see myself laying down 100 smackers for some rubber. Note I said "couldn't" meaning that after going to the mailbox this morning in flip flops I feel as though I could spend significantly more than 100 smackers to keep my toes dry. So for today, my monday, I relinquish all my plans and give my time to the three midgets in my house. What I think is so funny that whoever just read this did so in about a minute, but didn't realize that it took me three hours to write. During this tiny paragraph I have poured milk, made soup, changed not one but two poop diapers, wiped noses, and rocked a cranky baby to sleep. Finding joy in the midst of chaos:)
