My Life Raising Pigs

Okay, so I may not be an official pig farmer, it sure feels like it lately.   It is so frustrating when rooms are wrecked.  I am not talking about a little messy, W R E C K E D!  Socks on the bookshelves is not my idea of decor.
I had high expectations this morning.  HIGH.  I actually got up before the kids alarms, and we had a smooth "get out the door"  morning.  I usually stay home on Thursdays to catch up on housework, and other tasks.  Oh, right, back to the pig farming.... Well, the kids rooms were beyond the "tidy"  and I had every intention to clean all three bedrooms today.  Remember that I said my expectations were high?
Well, I went into the room of my littlest piggy, and looked around..........

  

Anyway, it took me 4 hours just to do Delaney's room. Now the good news is that it is head to toe done, but now I have piggy #1 and piggy #2 to take care of. Other good news however, is that since her room was so bad, the worst is over.

I even made the bed for her American Girl doll for crying out loud!  The best part about it though, was when she came home.  I waited for her to go upstairs, and after a minute followed her.  She was standing facing her window and just looking all around.  She turned around, wide eyed and grinning.  When she saw me, she ran full speed and jumped into my arms.  She hugged me so tight and did not let go.  That was the best compensation I have ever received for 4 hours of work. 

As for the dvds, the made their way into my sitting room. Now today is the night that Don does a lot of cleaning around the house, so I am assuming that he picked them up.  Now lets see how long they stay in my sitting room.........dvd day 3
