My "nesting" feelings from pregnancy are arriving early - and I want to deep clean like I have never deep cleaned before. I want to wash down walls, windows, clean out cupboards, fridge .. closets - de-JUNK! Everything!
One problem. I know if I do. I will just feel depressed when it doesn't stay that way. I would give it, maybe a week. {grrrrrr.}
Why do I have to be so anal about cleaning? Why do I have to have it ALL or nothing. Why can't I function like a normal person and just realize ... this is part of life. You clean it up so it's not disgusting. You don't clean it up so it will never be used or touched again. Yes, you still clean the toilet -- that doesn't mean it will never be pooped in again. (BTW - why is it, the second you clean it, little boys need to poop and pee all over it????????)
Yeah ---- so you can imagine how fun it is to be living with THIS WOMAN at THIS HOUSE!!!!
Say a sincere prayer for David, Ayla, Brax and Ben -- that I can stop freaking out. I'm bad at this anyway --- it's way worse when I'm pregnant.
AND to top it off --- we haven't had a washer and dryer for MONTHS. They both broke within weeks of each other, and our landlord won't fix them. This has been PART of the problem. Laundry, laundry EVERYWHERE. This is when you realize .... I/we don't need as many clothes as I/we have. Trying to do laundry once a week at my mom's for 5 people in about 8 hours. That is hard to do!!! I usually would do one to two loads a day the entire week --------
Is it just me or am I really good at complaining?
(That is one of those questions that I REALLY don't want answered. I'm pretty sure I know the answer ......)
i am laughing so hard!
ReplyDeleteI know exactly how you feel. I am nesting so bad. I went grocery shopping today! (which about killed me) But, before I could put anything a way I had to clean out and wipe down the fridge, the pantry, and the cupboards. Then I found myself sitting on the floor scrubbing the tile. ya! I think I'm nestig too!
