Tornado Alley


Top 10 Reasons that I May Lose My Mind This Week (in random order)

1. Three sick kids with fevers (again....)
2. The ever-growing piles of laundry that I haven't been able to do since the bee disaster destroyed the laundry room (almost a week ago)
3. Two solid days with contractors coming in and out of the house
4. Two solid days of people forgetting to lock the doors and the panic that ensues when I see Wyatt outside through the kitchen window
5. Three days of literally tying the laundry room door shut to keep Wyatt out before the repairs begin followed by another two days of running every time Wyatt tries to go into the laundry room and touch wet paint and drywall while the workers are in the house and I can't tie the doors shut
6. Changing all of the boys diapers on the dining room table
7. The dust, the dust, the dust that has been tracked everywhere
8. The smell that has permeated the house since the bee disaster began (cat urine x 10 suitable topic for a post all its own)
9. Watching Wyatt steal tools from movers attempting to move the grand piano out of the house
10. Recognizing that Wyatt's obsession with tools has moved to a new level after having spent the week with Dad and the bee removal equipment, piano movers and their tools, housing contractors with ladders, paint, drywall, drywall mud, etc., and Mom the one-woman cleaning crew and all of my cleaning supplies


Seriously, can you blame me????? Tons of people have asked me this week "How do you do it?" and I don't really know the secret to my sanity, but I think that it has something to do with this sweet little face.......
