that mommy

back in my "younger" days, i babysat for a mother who had breakfast, lunch and dinner stuck on the floor, lime green play-doh in the grooves of the table, and no spare counter top space. it bugged me, so i would clean for her too...but sometime between then and now, i have become that same women. i say this, as i scrape pear off the floor with a knife. you know what kind of day its been by how you measure what you sweep into the dust pan....1/4 cup...1/2 cup...


i love it though.

I am that woman too!! I didn't understand how there could be spills on the carpet and the dinner dishes not done EVERY DAY at the house I cleaned at... now I sure do, and I wish there was another one of me to hire!! :)

lol, tell me about it. some days i think i could just keep sweeping every 5 minutes and maybe just maybe the floor will stay clean for awhile!

Totally! We find things all the time in grooves and cracks and stuck here, there and everywhere. And our car...well, now I know why my dad rarely let us eat in the car and made us put napkins over the entire backseat and floor (not really).
