Have you ever seen a frog in the water? Nothing visible except their eyes, sticking out, surveying their surroundings like a submarine.
Here, just in case you can't conjure up that mental image....
Well, thats how I feel.
Literally.
It's like two steps forward and three back.
Get one kid to sleep early, the other is awake until almost midnight.
Two loads of laundry done, five left.
Kitchen spotless, bathroom/bedrooms/living room looks like a tornado came through.
Playroom just about complete and ready for carpet, storage room attached to it just beginning construction.
And have I mentioned that a 4 week project turned into 14? Cause it did. Literally. And still counting.
I have a pathway to the computer and through to the living room, as the rest of the dining room is storage for the two incomplete rooms above.
I had to just about climb over a mountain to feed the guinea pig.
Let the dog out Saturday around 11am. Then I took the kids out for the day. Upon arriving home at 7pm I noticed said dog at the gate. I forgot him. All day. Outside. And he's a chihuahua.
Thank God he's fat, no chance a hawk could fly away with him for dinner.
Oh, and I found a mound of cookies in Stink's bed. Apparently he has been hording them like a hamster. *reminder* Need to stop that child from watching CNN....recession is getting to him.
And I just figured out we could have gone to Disney World on what it cost to rehab these two rooms. In luxury to boot.
A vacation would have been nice.
So, like I was saying. A frog. Under water. Only I don't have gills.
Oh hang in there. Medical issues have been weighing us down in the water, but sounds like you are having some real hurdles to "hop" over.
Haaaaahaa!
OK. I know. Not funny.

I am so with you. Half the time I try to clean a room only to have it look worse than when I started. The getting organized part just makes a bigger mess.

Oh Val, I do know what you mean. It just never ends, does it?
