I get two weekends out of the month to myself while my kids go to their dads. Thankfully I have a pool full of friends to hang out with during me time. This weekend I’ll be with my pals Jacob and Colton. They are pretty much the coolest guys you could ever meet! However that also means I have to clean my house… I don’t realize how crazy of a mess my house gets until I decide to have company over. I need some quick clean up tips… I’m too exhausted to actually have this social life thing going on.
On top of trying to get my house clean I’m running around like a chicken with its head chopped off after my children. This morning 10 minutes before we were supposed to leave the house for school my 10 year old daughter comes to ask me if she can wear something different. I asked why and she says, “Well because today is 50s day and I’ve signed up for a sock hop”. So panic mode set in and I ripped through her closet like a maniac trying to piece something together last minute
For a last minute outfit, I’m pretty impressed with my bad self… feeling like supermom at the moment but I’m sure when they come home this afternoon I’ll be brought back down off my high horse during some everyday fiasco. But for now I’ll live in the moment and applaud my small successes!
