I must preface this post by warning you that it is NOT a happy one. Even the $.25 chai latte at Walgreen's (yes, they've raised their prices 500%!!) did little to cheer me up. It's another gray February day.
The percentage of school J and I have completed today: 25%
The number of times I've spanked L: 2
The number of things I've cleaned today: ummm, let's see...
- The dog drooled all over herself on the way to the vet, we're talking soaking wet from her chin, down her chest and both front legs. I cleaned her up there, then at the auto repair shop where we stopped on the way home for a 1000 mile overdue oil change. Then I had to give her a bath and clean out the van when we returned home.
- I cleaned up the floor and clothes where L peed twice. Once at the above mentioned auto repair shop.
- I've scoured the house looking for a pair of soaking wet pee socks which L was supposed to leave in the sink. They've completely disappeared, but all of the stuffed animals in the girls' room are completely in order, as are their beds and drawers.
- Oh, and of course there is the entire pot of coffee that I managed to knock over this morning, which ran down into the cabinets. I found some petrified hot chocolate down there that was spilled about a month ago, so I cleaned that up too. The worst part of this was that it happened BEFORE I had my morning cup of joe.
- All of the laundry from the above mentioned episodes are currently in the dryer. Now it appears that it is time to do dishes.
The really dismal thing about this, besides the overpowering grayness outside, is that it's just a typical day (except for the vet and auto repair shop trip). I'm extremely likely to clean up more pee and dog barf and spills in the near future. SIGH.
