My House Is Mine Again!

Oh how exciting, the boys are gone!  Now I can get back to the business of living, writing and damn, cleaning.  My house is completely trashed from their two week stay…its amazing what three kids can do compared to one.  And I just didn’t have the energy to stay on top of it, so really its my fault.  This Momma does not do good on very little sleep, let me tell you, especially not when its sudden.

I can say with heartfelt sincerity that I will NOT do this again.  In my current place and where I’m at in life, it’s just too much.  Way too damn much.  There really isn’t any room for them here, and my house is definitely not childproof, although I tried before they showed up.  Nothing like a couple of toddlers to show you where you messed up!

No matter how cute they are.  During the day, fine…overnight once or twice okay.  But for two weeks straight?  Nuh uh, not happening.  I’m too old for that.

Oh, and that “big” snow storm we were supposed to get?  4 whopping inches.  Of course it did change to freezing rain, with some thunder and lightning action.  That’s twice in the past two years there has been thunder and lightning during the winter…something I never saw before as a kid growing up here.  Never.  The closest I had ever gotten to lightning during the winter was the glow of the shocks we received any time we touched anything…got to love static electricity.  Not.

It started out so pretty too.
