I just have to type! I have spent the majority of the summer with my iPad. I have only sat at the computer a few times. So while itching to write, typing doesn't go to well with the iPad & writing was put on the back burner. I have a bit of fear of writing. Maybe it is because, like everything else, I have so much that "should" be done & maybe I am a little afraid too. What if I start & stop again or if I don't want to stop or...oh my! Just do it already!
Catch up on the Momma Motivator - what have I done? Well - I've again started quite a few things, but I had a motivational family that moved in to my house this summer. FLEAS! Oh my goodness. I have entered an epic battle with these bad buggies. All of my failures all in 1 - vacuuming, cleaning in general, consistency - ugh!
Wow. So I have vacuumed & cleaned our couches a few times (umm...they still look ridiculously filthy). I have done more loads of laundry in a few weeks than I did all school year. Bathed 3 dogs repeatedly, actually considered bathing the cats. Yeah right?! Worst of all things is just the money. New vacuum, new upholstery cleaner, sprays, chemicals, collars, dips, shampoos...the list continues. The information that I have read indicates months of repeating these processes (to which I am just no good!) to get ahead of the "cycle".
Things are better in this area. I have stopped crying while vacuuming - that's an improvement! I see 1 or 2 of the bad buggies/day instead of murdering many of them at a time. Vaseline & picking bugs - not really too much fun. I do not turn as red when my 3 year old tells strangers about our bad buggies at our house. Ugh! It's a defining issue of the summer of 2012. Oh well. Worst things have happened.
OK - I'm going back to my party invitations for Cal's 4th birthday party. Olympic party!!!
A listing of musings & accomplishments to keep me on point - and maybe finish something that I start.
