Maybe I should have waited until after Christmas, but today I decided to clean and purge the kids bedrooms, closets, and toy closet. I do this fairly often, but am especially thorough before school starts in the Fall and at Christmas.
I have to believe the Lord has a great sense of humor, He sent me a certain female child so unlike myself in just about every way possible, but most definitely in the "have to have things clean and organized" way.
Good thing the garbage man comes tomorrow... I think I'm more excited about his visit than Santa's at this point!

Who needs deep, dark places? Caitlin is pretty obvious with her messes. There was Silly Putty in the carpet, marker on her duvet, a spot on the wall where she has been peeling the paint, candy wrappers everywhere I turned... and then there was Caleb's room- the "neat" child. Let's just say not so neat. There were a few naughty words said out loud today.
Until you find underwear and socks underneath the bed, (not just one pair, but many), my son Eric still has Caitlin beat. Better tip the garbage man!
Oh...and Cicada shells. (A bug that lives in Illinois and sheds it's skin as it matures. About an inch long and alien like.) My boys "collected" them.
Well... under Caitlin's bed I found whiskers she had cut off two stuffed animals and some of the candy wrappers (and a dried up cricket- gross!). In Caleb's sock drawer I found all the socks I had matched up and folded in one giant mixed up heap.
To be fair, the most unorganized and cluttered place in our house is my work desk- I should call Larry. LOL
Your post made me chuckle... I could just picture you cleaning and organizing. You are so good at it! You would die if you saw my house right now. I can't wait to start cleaning and organizing after Christmas!
Have a Merry Christmas!!
ewwww...but I still think "your dirty" and "my dirty" are two VERY different things! LOL
