So my husband has been gone for 40 minutes and counting...he offered to take our rentals back to redbox (and is probably regretting it now because the first two he's gone to have been "full" and won't accept any more discs...so he's hunting for one that will take them) AND offered to take the kids with him. In the 40 minutes that he's been gone, I have done the dishes, vacuumed the entire house (upstairs and downstairs), done a load of laundry, had a conversation on the phone, tried to clean out stains on the couch from a red permanent marker that Asher no doubt left on there, picked up the kids room which was no small feat considering the 100 stuffed animals strewn about and the 15 minutes I spent with the vacuum hose sucking up little white pieces of ceiling (off the floor, under the bed, on the beds/sheets, etc) that the kids like to scrape off when I'm not watching them like a hawk. Which brings me to the question of this post...is it lame if I just vacuum my children's beds instead of actually washing the sheets like most moms would? It's a total pain in the butt to make bunk beds! AND, I had a conversation on the phone. All in 40 minutes! With the kids here, it would have taken three times as long to do all of those things and upon completion, I would have found about 10 more things that needed cleaning up because of the lack of supervision on my part when I was cleaning to begin with! (Like the marker all over the couch!)
Well that was short lived...he's home...so I guess I'll stop cleaning =( It was a nice 40 minute reprive though!
