Now What?

I get it. I had an epiphany today as I cleaned. I have nothing against cleaning. I do so love to make things shiny, smell good, fresh and sparkly. I enjoy making order out of chaos. I was getting more and more frustrated as I cleaned and wondered what my deal was. I was hit with a ton of bricks. I was cleaning up after messes I DID NOT MAKE. I know. Maybe some of you in the trenches were well aware of that fact. Maybe I am a late bloomer but now I get it. Another one of my "issues" has reared its ugly head.

Cleaning up messes I didn't make is what I should be going right now!

Just had to stop by and say hello. I'm in Wisconsin also, and have 3 kids ages 10, 8, 5. I found you at In the Trenches of Mommyhood.

I hope you're staying warm tonight!

Cleaning up other peoples messes is my job sadly enough. It is what I do on a daily basis. And o nce I clean it, it gets messed up again for me to clean it all over again. You gotta love a Mom's life.

Kat,
Are you an angry cleaner? I want to be a happy cleaner or at the very least in a good mood cleaner.
