Viva Mexico! and a bunch of other random babblings



Once we added Bean to our family, our home became really crowded, really quick. What had worked for three was suddenly super tight for all four of us, and I couldn't take him back. Believe me, I tried. So, now that the hubs and I feel mutually as though the house is closing in on us, I have decided to clean up shop or house, and empty the closets as well as all the kitchen cabinets. I have already taken out 5 trash bags of clothing, and I have not even started on pbears stuff. It's like one of those things that you start, and then you regret it. Like the time I decided that I would paint my kitchen red, and about halfway through, I found myself looking at pbear with my "i failed" face, resulting in him repainting the whole thing white.


Anyway, today being Saturday, I felt that it would be a perfect day to clean. Lame, I know! The bedroom is on that halfway stage, where I already pulled crap out and have started to bag it, but now what? I actually took "before" pics in hopes that I can share "after" pics. I am sooooo freaking excited right?! I know you will check back to see my progress every day and share words of encouragement, because I am just that interesting. <---insert sarcasm and dorky laugh here.

Have an awesome Weekend and I will see you Monday for Mean B_tch Monday!

Please make sure to help me not look like a loser and participate in my giveaways...it only takes a microsecond to post a comment that says "hey im a follower" or "I follow you on twitter." It would really stroke my ego, and we can all use a little stroking once in a while. Right? That's what I thought.

  5. Girl....it must be the weather or something. I don't know...but I've been on a closet-cleaning spree this week too. LOL First time I've felt good in a couple weeks, so maybe I just had a big burst of energy. :) Feels good to get it all done though, huh?

  6. @Tree- yes it does, I have to admit. I feel good getting rid of so much crap. The truth is we could be using that storage space for stuff we actually use. Happy cleaning!!

  7. I started this process on friday. Joy. That's the worst part of cleaning, when you have to make a bigger mess to get rid of the original mess.
