Ignorance Truly is Bliss

I have been living in a wonderland bliss where everything seemed clean and orderly. Then all of a sudden out of nowhere my eyes have been magically opened to the state of my house. To my horror and utter astonishment things weren't as they appeared for so long. Science experiments gone wrong, or maybe dinner from last year and expired condiments invaded my refrigerator. Spiders and dead bugs have run out of room in the corners and are taking over all available space. Toys have placed themselves in every drawer and container in the house. As I surveyed the rest of the house I witnessed socks standing on their own, dust camouflaged as furnishings, crumbs trying to blend in not only on my counters but in my bed as well, movies without a home, bills long forgotten, a volcano in my microwave, toilets to gross to explain, my oven with Christmas drippings, diapers trying to find a way to the landfill, and the floors, well....let's not even walk there.

Umm.. So where have I been.

Expired condiments...EXCUSE ME Find the Oldest Date in Papa's Fridge Partner. Am I reading this right? You better get with it so I don't have to bump you from the Don't let Papa come in the kitchen duo squad. Yeah, I said it.

Hehe....up until this week my house sounds very similar to yours. Like they could be twins! But since we just listed the house I now have to be a crazed maniac and obsess over everything being in its place. Your place sounds more fun.

I'd laugh except only you've captured perfectly the state of my house as well.... and we have a SW coming next week for our 3 month PP visit. AGHH!!!!

Where have you been? You, my friend, have been around the world and back again. You have gained family members. You have been to movie premiers. Oh yeah, AND you have been a mommy. Your house sounds perfect to me!

Well, I know you haven't been sleeping...Maybe God put some blinders on you so that you could survive the past year and not worry about the mess!

I'm glad I'm not the only one!!! :)

Thanks for the kick in the butt to get a blog post done! I've been so busy I haven't taken the time to follow my favs (like yours) or write on my own. I needed that push back because I have really missed it. Thanks.
