Math, Magic, and Miracles

I don't even know how it's possible. There are miracles at work in my house every day. Or maybe it's magic. I'm not really sure. How can it be that two children and two adults can generate this much mess? I don't think it's mathematically possible to go from generally tidy to filthy in less than twenty-four hours. I mean somebody-exploded-a-science-project-and-then-a-tornado-blew-through kind of filth.

WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO TO GET PEOPLE TO PICK UP AFTER THEMSELVES????

if you get an answer to this, please let me know. I am going insane here with the messes and it seeming as I am the only one picking things up. This is where on one hand I pray that no one will want to see the house but on the other, I pray that if we do get a showing then I'll have more than 5 minutes to try and hide everything (in the attic or under beds, etc.)

Make them move out....and I've been tempted SEVERAL times to test that theory.

If you find something that works - short of packing them up and shipping them off, let me know.

Hmmm...maybe all those misc. things left lying around should be gathered in a bag and hidden...hmmm...wonder where '?' went? "I don't know, if you had put it back, you'd know."

Snapping back into reality...I pick stuff up and try to remember that at least we have the stuff to pick up. [shrugs shoulders]

Same craziness goes on in my house too - I don't know where all the mess comes from, but I do know that I am the only one cleanin' up! You are not alone!

Thanks for coming by today - so nice to see you. Have a good evening - Kellan

Happens in my house every.single.day. I would pay big money for a self-cleaning house.
