This morning I moved the couch to vaccuum behind it, for the first time since before DS was born (he just turned 2 mos.). YIKES! We have two dogs, and one is a shedder. Well, there was enough hair back there to make a third dog. I expected it to bark at me and demand a bowl of kibble. As I'm typing this I'm wondering what kind of beast is lurking behind the huge oak desk I'm sitting at........fortunately it's way too heavy for me to move, so DH will have to do it.
Just confessing my sins......

eddited to say: i forgot to mention that the kids room is thrashed, the couch has had peanut butter smeared on it for at least a week, the vaccuum cleaner is broken (or at least that's my story for why the floor looks like s*#t, as my mother always used to say "sure you could eat off my floor, there's enough crumbs on there to feed an army!") the kids spilled birdseed all over the kitchen this morning and i'm using the computer as an excuse to not clean it up; the top of my dresser is buried in a couple weeks worth of pocket detritus; i don't even TRY to fold the clothes anymore, i just cheerfully attempt to shove them into the drawers on top of the other ones; and when dh asked me the other day how full to fill the bathtub for the kids' bath i actually gave him an "are you stupid?" look and said "just fill it to the soap scum line, duh!"
i tried flylady for a while and then remembered why my house is always dirty, three reasons: my kids are monsters, i hate cleaning, and i don't really care. very simple. so screw it, love it, leave it, or hire a maid. my best friend tells her hubby "you don't pay me enough to wash dishes," and i think i have to agree.

Thats too funny.
Sometimes I wonder what is hiding in my couch and under it, we have 2 kids and a dog
I'm so glad that I'm not the only one who doesn't clean all the time. This is pretty gross...but one of my cats suffers from really bad hairballs. It's all I can do to try and make sure that I keep my 1 year old away from the puke spots before I get them cleaned up. I usually wake up to 2 or 3 a week. Nice little present from the kitty. We also have hard wood floors along with 2 cats and a shelty (VERY fluffy dog)...you would think that we have 6 animals instead of 3 with the hairballs that I chase around.
I do really try to keep things clean...but it does get away from me. I look at my other SAHM friends homes and don't see how they do it. My husband keeps saying he's going to hire a cleaning service...I don't know if it's a threat or a promise, but, I'm ALL for it!!! :)
