Finally some motivation!!!

What a week!!! I didn't get done nearly what I wanted to when I was on vacation last week and the house was in shambles as I mentioned in a earlier post. Monday, I went to the bank only to find that my oh so wonderful ex created such a mess for me in regards to my car that I spent the next half hour with the bank trying to figure out what to do. Cub Scouts then came to the forefront as I had to complete Adam's order for the church so off to the flower shop to talk to the liturgy coordinator. Half hour and a broken figurine later the kids and I left the humble shop. (Did I mention that Adam is like a bull in a china shop right now?) Picked up my phone and Joe at home and gobbled down a hamburger only to race through Target every body grabbing stuff so I could have the kids in bed by 8 to watch the only show Joe and I watch religiously. (Heros) Tuesday night Jim had the kids and I had the night to myself only to have a cold and stay at work late to get caught up. Wednesday night...kids are with Jim again, back to the bank only to find I didn't have the correct information with me. Race to Weight Watchers, leave half way through the meeting to spend a quiet dinner with Joe and race to get the kids. Throw them through the shower, read a story and into bed for the two. Adam has been off kilter but back on track today.

So as I raced through the house this week I tried so hard to turn a blind eye to the mess that lay around. However no more.....One load of dishes are washed in the washer...a small one awaits me emptying it and starting it. A load of towels are in the dryer....a load of clothes are in the wash and one more awaits to be done. I am determined to finish the kitchen and wash the floor and vaccum the dining room and living room. I can't believe it my parents will be here in a few weeks and I have so much to do. What one night home will do!!!
