Texas' Three Ring Circus: Spring Cleaning

Every day I am amazed and awed by the wonder and discovery in the eyes of the little creatures that I helped bring into being. They are my world and my reason for being. There are moments of sheer joy that I am a part of their lives. There are also moments of pure unalderated choas and insanity. My house is a constant challenge and I always wonder if I am saying and or doing the right thing. Join me on this trip; upon arrival we will be either enlightened or insane.

Spring Cleaning

I took my kids to my sister's house on Sunday. They spent all day playing with their cousins and having a ball. Meanwhile, back at the casa, James and I were working hard and getting dirty. NOT LIKE THAT! Cleaning the house. From top to bottom. Stuff like behind the refridgerator, the stove, cleaning out the pantry. We also did a few "home improvement" things as well. We ripped up the carpet in the girl's bedroom and then painted the concrete with purple concrete paint.

This is 100% easier to clean and keep up with. If she spills something or gets food on the floor (by sneaking it out of the kitchen) then it is just a quick sweep and mop instead of a rental of a carpet cleaner and deodorizing the room.

Last few things to be done? Laundry and sorting the clothes that we no longer wear.

I EVEN paid bills this morning before I left the house at 7 AM!

Who's Behind the Madness

I'm Drama Mama
From Austin, Texas, United States
I am a 24 year old married mother of three, which were supposed to be two, but we were surprised with our little miracle after a failed tubal. I was the goody-goody who was college bound and sheltered to the max and I married the bad boy three years older than me after we got knocked-up. I AM the cliche but it worked out well because I would have been a collegiate partier. Now I am the ring leader at the madhouse which we lovingly refer to as the circus.
