Yeah, but it's new crap!; January 2, 2008 at 2:09 PM

MommyTime said...: I had to laugh because I took all these BEFORE and AFTER pics of my house around the holidays -- you know, bathroom with no sink or toilet and paint trays everywhere...then bathroom with sink and toilet and lovely green walls, etc... Then I missed the reasonable window to post them all due to the untimely demise of my photocard reader. Now we're back to Hurricaine Status around here, and I keep contemplating posting a Before/After/Aftermath series. Because, really, who can keep that magazine-quality "After" going on except people with no kids, no pets and no jobs?; January 2, 2008 at 3:35 PM
Erin said...: I am SO feeling for you. My poor husband helped me clean and organize the entire house on Sunday and I have already turned it back to semi chaos. He seems to put everything back where it belongs....the baby and I are not so good at that.

I think I know what a goal of mine for 2008 should be....; January 2, 2008 at 4:05 PM
Mrs Furious said...: Amy,
lol

Mommytime,
you should still post them... there should be no statute of limitations on getting the cleaning validation you deserve!; January 2, 2008 at 4:25 PM
Mrs Furious said...: Erin,
At least you have one person in the house who picks up after themselves... that is more than I can say about anyone around here!; January 2, 2008 at 4:29 PM
emmyjw said...: LOL I literally cleaned and organized myself sick on Monday. Guess what it looks like today? A big mess with the furniture in different positions. Oh well... at least I tried. Now my sinuses hurt so bad I couldn't fix it even if I wanted to. Man, I was so hoping to start school/dance/karate/violin/band/co-op next week with a clean house, but hey, why break tradition? I think the mess feeds their creativity...; January 2, 2008 at 6:37 PM

"A big mess with the furniture in different positions"

wootini said...: Your desk looks just like mine... work or home, my entire life my desks have looked like a hurricane just hit. I can always find everything though!

I've accepted the inevitable and recently bought a secretary at Ikea, so I can at least cram it all behind a door if I need to...; January 2, 2008 at 9:00 PM
Mrs Furious said...: Emily,
"I've accepted the inevitable and recently bought a secretary at Ikea, so I can at least cram it all behind a door if I need to..."

I have a little something like that.... in the playroom one of the toy cubbies has a door and in it is a huge pile of crap I have cleared off my desk (100x at least.... god only knows what is in that mountain of papers!).... but it is very handy when people are coming over! ;); January 2, 2008 at 9:12 PM
Kiki said...: Mrs Furious, I am way too afraid of my mess to even consider photographing the proof of what a crappy housekeeper I am! I swear one of these days though it might be what actually scares me enough to get it all cleaned up!!; January 2, 2008 at 9:59 PM
Deb said...: Canine F is starting to become my own personal "Where's Waldo".; January 2, 2008 at 10:38 PM
Mrs Furious said...: Kiki,
that is precisely why I do it. It works everytime. Sometimes I'll look back at the pics in the day and just be like "MY GOD what a goddamn shit hole!" It is the same with photographing my outfits... you see the whole thing at once... and you can't deny the truth!; January 2, 2008 at 10:40 PM
Mrs Furious said...: Deb,

shit he was even on the goddamn sledding ramp today I could have posted you a picture.

speaking of Where's Waldo we just got those books for Kid and she LOVES them... I thought about those books for years.; January 2, 2008 at 10:50 PM
Danielle said...: I guess we're doomed to years of messes with these damn kids, babies and canines!?!; January 3, 2008 at 12:42 PM
Mrs Furious said...: Danielle,

I'm trying to accept it.

I always think if our house was bigger it would help... but I'm not sure that is true.; January 3, 2008 at 12:54 PM
Anonymous said...: your taglines just crack me up!
My house is constantly messy and it drives me crazy. And trust me, a bigger house only means a bigger mess. We moved in 6 months ago and the house was basically bare. Now every single nook and cranny is full of crap. It multiplies when I am not looking, I swear!

Mrs Furious said...: Lisa,
thanks... I do try ;)
