Another Edition Of Not Me! Monday

September 27, 2009

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! It definitely isn’t me who spends every evening after the kids are in bed relaxing in her big, blue, bloggy chair blogging her heart out, while McDaddy sits five feet away on the couch pecking away at his laptop probably on Jeepinwv.com. It certainly wasn’t me who stared at four baskets of [...]

Cleaning The Bathroom

September 8, 2009

I’m sure that title just screams, “I can’t wait to read this post!” Hopefully you’ll stick around despite the not-so-creative-title. It’s all I could come up with at this late, exhausting hour. And speaking of cleaning, I sure hope you’ll excuse the mess. From Inmates To Playdates is being overhauled, so you may encounter some error messages or caution [...]

Airing our Dirty Laundry

August 18, 2009

During our week-long camping extravaganza, I watched in horror as our laundry bag filled to capacity and then began to seep out the top of the black plastic trash -bag.

Some days, I have sprinted. Some days, I have walked. Some days, I felt like quitting. It’s been a [...]

Not A Creature Was Stirring Except For The Mouse

July 15, 2009

Before we left for our two-week vacation in New Hampshire, I thought it would be a good idea to wash my kitchen cabinets and counter tops off.

I Hate Dust!

May 13, 2009

I hate to dust. What I hate even more is moving the dust along instead of the dust actually clinging to my dust rag. That’s why I love the Swiffer Duster. I used the swiffer duster yesterday to clean the blades of my ceiling fan and when I was finished the swiffer thing was a nasty [...]
