Why am I so tired?

I think the rain and weather has something to do with the tiredness and constant yawning. I realized this is so much like a journal. But I don't really enjoy writing in a journal. This seems like such an easier format.
Ok so the Housekeeping for the day. I like to go to Flylady.net for great ideas. They do a great job of trying to keep you on track. Of course keeping focused can be hard. Instead of staying on one thing to completion I tend to get pulled all over the place. Help I have Housekeeping AD/HD. It probably has to do with the entire I love making my house a home. I tend to not like that statement. More like I live in a house, my family makes it the home. Not the housekeeper. They don't mind the clutter. It is amazing how a leaf in the middle of the carpet looks like a white chalk dead body marker while the rest of the family sees NOTHING.

What a man invented? Part 2

Have you ever sat in a bathroom in an airport where the toilet paper is exactly at knee level. Yes, possibly if the stall is so small your knee is smashed up against the paper. You to have experienced a man made invention. Woman of course would have thought about the proper placement of the toilet paper dispenser. It probably would have been placed well above the knee area. I am guessing a man also invented the one sheet at a time dispenser. The inhumanity!!!

What a man invented?

Maybe a man didn't but I think he did. Invented my linoleum with little tiny divots in the darn stuff. I am sure it was hip and fashionable twenty years ago. But NO woman in her right mind would come up with this idea. Do you know what gets the dirt out? A toothbrush, it worked well but took forever. I was never able to complete the entire floor. So I thought bigger toothbrush. I bought a mop with a big scrub brush attached. Guess what it worked but not as well as the toothbrush. Oh I know complain and whine. Thanks I do. I just use my Swiffer and pretend that my linoleum is supposed to have dark spots mixed in. Like Marbling.

A New Chapter

Hello Bloggers- I was inspired to start blogging yesterday when I went to see Julie & Julia. I love being home with my kids but also didn't feel like I signed up for that whole House cleaning portion of Staying home. I know some of you SAHM may be shocked but it is true. Scrubbing, dusting and the like were not on my initial horizons when I thought of for better or worse. Now that my kids are well into grade school I thought I would get better at keeping neat and tidy. Of course that is not the case and I actually struggle with wanting to clean. I would rather get a cup of coffee with a friend and chat for an hour.
Just like in the movie this is starting to sound like this is all about me but of course it is! I just wanted an outlet that gets this off my chest and can help CLEAN out my soul.
I read this great book one time called "Professionalizing Motherhood" it was great and reminded us that our goal is long term not short term. But I still have to live day to day in the short term and sometime doing the mundane day after day can be MIND NUMBING!
Well anyway thanks for listening.
