A lot of us have complained about being too tired to get much done around the house, so I thought it'd be fun to share what we've let go around the house or put off in our daily life. I'll start it off, and come on, ladies...BE HONEST!
-Right now I have eight laundry baskets full of laundry in my bedroom waiting to be folded.
-I have wood floors in my livingroom and diningroom, and I haven't mopped them since March.
-We've had PB & J two dinners in a row because I didn't feel like going to the grocery store.
-I quit making my bed when my 1st daughter was born. I do change the sheets, though, but don't ask me how often.
i have a load of dipes in the dryer, a dried but not folded load of towels in my dad's apt (which will drive him nuts when he gets up this morning), two undone loads in a pile (not in the basket which i meant to use to carry up the towels) in the bathroom.
i have a dog that smells like the town garbage dump 'cause i haven't washed her in two months.
i have dustbunnies bigger than my ds and they are now running the household i think.
i have a stack of bills and other paperwork to file that is about 4 inches high
i have a bunch of clothes that don't fit ds anymore sitting all over the house.
I haven't done any laundry for a week.
I haven't done my dishes for three days.
I need to pay my bills.
I need to finish knitting baby booties for my best friend who had her baby last week. I haven't knitted since I got preg.
I need to play with ds. I have been totally lacking on that.
We finished moving into our new house two weeks ago - there are still paths to get around the boxes.
I haven't gone grocery shopping in almost a month - just quick meal shopping.
The dog is underexercised and starving for attention.
My work performance sucks because I can't stay awake at my desk.
I haven't cleaned the new house thoroughly yet.
Laundry has overtaken the laundry room and I caught some of it copulating the other day...I'm expecting offspring soon.
I feel so guilty, but I'm just so tired after working 8 hours....and I can't take anymore time off, my boss is mad and I just end up sleeping half the day away.
The family room now looks like a preschool, with toys strewn all over.
I haven't cooked a decent dinner in weeks - thank goodness for dh and my ability to make a meal (or seven) out of jarred sauerkraut and organic hot dogs.
I have to weed my flower beds BADLY. The mulch we put in this spring must have had little saplings in it.
:
I just washed the Brita pitcher and changed the filter after more than 6 weeks. And it sits out on our counter, not the fridge.
: I think we all must be immune to all sorts of exotic bacteria by now.
I'm behind on 3 wedding presents, 2 birthday presents, 2 fathers-day presents (my dad and stepdad)
, and 1 housewarming gift.
There's more, lot's more, but I'm tired :yawning: and am going to go try to take a quick snooze before the kids wake up from their nap!
It's my naptime, too, so this is the last post I'm reading :LOL (and I'm glad I did). Right now I need to do dishes, mop, vaccuum, my tub is gross
, I have 3 laundry baskets full of clean clothes that need folded, and about 6 loads of laundry to do! I have tried to do good on the eating front, b/c that's what my DH wants the most :LOL FOOD!!!
My husband finally broke down and cleaned the bathroom last week because I haven't done it in.......I can't remember when.
We have spiderwebs or cobwebs or something funky all over the place. I walk past them in every corner every day and have no desire to get out the vaccuum and suck em up!
The sink is full of dishes.
I did break down and mop my kitchen floor the other day because it was too disgusting.
I have about 4 loads of laundry (that dh washed yesterday) sitting in baskets on our unmade bed. Instead of putting them up this afternoon, I watched Dr. Phil, The Ellen Degeneras Show, and Enough. That's 4 hours of tv!!!! The laundry is still in baskets on the unmade bed.
I bought a yoga mat and stretchie bands and a yoga dvd over a month ago and haven't used them once yet.
I am actually really anxious for nesting to kick in. I hate living in filth and feeling guilty cause I'm a lazy slob.
I WANT MY ENERGY BACK!!!!
