Today I am cleaning my house

and I thought I would blog about it as I do it.  why...cause it breaks up the monotony of doing it?

My room...bed made, yes I do that every morning...windows washed, my dresser cleaned off and dusted.  Pictures I dont know what to do with, shoved under the bed.  Vacuumed.  Hubbys dresser consists of one slightly cat eaten remote control tarantula, lost of loose change, oops...change what change.  Important papers that If i move he will die but he will never touch and various shades of crap.  Not touching with a 10 foot pole...oh cept the change.

C2's room.  Only cause its easier than C1,3.  Nice, C2.  I know how difficult it can be to open the closet to put your clothes inthe laundry basket but really!  An entire weeks worth of dirty laundry thrown at the foot of your bed.  Didn't notice it before because the bedroom door was hiding it.  UGH!  Underware hanging from the closed closet door handle!  OMG!  Just gross woman!  And did you know the garbage can is not for stoing stuff, but for garbage,.  So please pick up your crap and put it in the garbage can.  Then when it is full, take it downstairs, the bathroom garbage is not big enough as they are they same size, and dump it in the garbage can in the garage!

Just got C3 out of bed..little late...threw clothes at him and yelled, hurry child hurry!  He wants toast...no time...eat cereal!  Make my breakfast two eggs scrambled.  Kick C2 out the door, C3's friend comes in the door.  Clean kitchen while waiting for eggs (yes, I'm that fast) .  Kick C3 and Friend out door, wolf down breakfast and read paper, call KLP about article on the front of the paper, cut her off so I can eat my eggs warm (hopefully not offending in the process *hugs*), wash pans, put all dishes in dishwasher,wipe down countertops.

Back upstairs in the bathro.... son of a ....  turned to find cat had emptied C2's garbage can for me and was shredding kleenex.  Pick up and re vacuum. 

Bathroom.  Odd things found..Legos, calculator that has been missing for three years, 4 caps to toothpaste, one tube of toothpaste ?????  pair of shorts not worn since summer, 8 million crushed dixie cups stuffed into drawer.  ( I dont even bother asking...Wish me luck on the tub!)
tub and toilet done.  Hint on toilets if you have hard water calcium build up.  Pumice stone...mine disappeared after I had one of the kids scrub a toilet...hmmm..connection?  Another hit...vacuum the bathroom floor first!
I am not mopping them.  The mop is way downstairs.  Ok.. I lied..I did by the toilet cause boys dont aim and why is there purple gum on the floor...??  and why does my cat love to watch the toilet flush???
Scraping the toothpaste off of the wall, molding and cabinet...why is it there?

C3 just called..have to run gym shoes up to school.  Shoes delivered.  Ok...I'm going to call bathroom done just cause I am tired of being in here.  (did my mom just shudder?) 

The boys room..let me paint  you a mental picture if I may.  Giant fire truck outside the door.  I DONT KNOW WHY?  and pile of socks also outside the door.  Again...no clue. 
Laundry basket that I asked boys to put away,sitting full on the floor now riffled through rather than folded.  4 nerf guns, two smaller lego bins in middle of floor. 8 million legos on floor.  Empty lego boxes on floor. 
Signal flags from scouts, on floor. Instructions for legos on floor.  Top sheet to C1's bed, on floor. (he's on the top bunk).  Bunny, on floor. more sock and underware than I can count, on floor.  Kitty's house on floor. Pile of Lincoln Logs.  Aldi bag?? webkinz, books, lego fortresses? top to a xmas cookie container.  Head to a pasta maker??  empty box of zip locs, magnetics, broken pencils,unbroken pencils, robe, blankets, and general garbage.  HOLY SHIT!  how do they even live in here...it is now 9:19.  Lets ee how fast I can tackle this..oh and I only do the floor, I never look on the top of desks..so I truley dont know if there are fish in the 10 gallon tank.  Why are there beads all over the floor?  what the heck is that too??  Ladies and gentlemen!  The greatest invention know to man!!  THE HANGER .  Found...two night lights...(C3 sleeps with them, for the record)    omg!  I made the mistake of looking in the fishtank!  EEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.  I wonder how many legos I have vacuumed in .my time?  They make a great noise when they go into my vacuum.  Sounds like a jet taking off.. course all of those beads dont help.  Had one of those...oh crap what was that, as it went up into the vacuum. . I only rescue money.  and I keep it cause afterall, they are pigs! 

Upstairs DONE!  Started at 740 am and baring a few detours..done with upstairs by 9:41.  Phew..I rock..rest of the house is easy compared to this!  Oh..linen closet.  The floor is now taller than C3.  Hmm....I think it can wait another day or so? I FEEL THE NEED TO GO SHOPPING!  Oh wait..Istill have stuff from xmas and my bday I haven't put away because I have to get rid and organize stuff do put stuff where stuff belongs.  I really shouldn't bring more stuff in.   but KLP did she she needed to go shopping today....hmmmmmm
