I've been feeling kind of out of sorts lately. I was getting agitated easily, pessimistic, all Debbie Downer-ish. Then I figured out why. My kitchen was an absolute disaster and has been for a while and nobody (me and Wayne) seemed to notice it. Now that I think about it, I'm pretty embarassed about having my parents babysit here a few weeks ago, although it may have been in a disgusting, but less disgusting than now state.
Most people who are slobs are fairly in the closet about it. If someone is due to come by, the floors are swept, the counters are clear and the sitting area is at least manageable to walk in. Hours earlier there were almost whole bags of chips strewn across the floor, the counter was completely covered in junk and toast crumbs. Oh the horror if someone should pop by unannounced.
I'm just going to "come clean" (wa wa waaaaaa) about it and show you just how disgusting our place can get. And screw that whole "Oh I'm busy, I have twins, I have like zero time". My kids go to bed before 8, which gives me 2 or 3 hours to get shit done. Enjoy.
Isn't this gorgeous? HGTV eat your heart out! (If you click the picture you can see the grime even better!)
Oh it gets better! Note the Hello Kitty bobblehead I'm bringing for my office at work.
Yeah... just...yeah.
I'm ashamed to admit that I'm someone's mother right now.
So I got to work...
Still pretty crappy but better than it was. That microwave area is just so scary, I don't want to delve into its evilness.
Crappiest counter ever, the rust and such rings just give it character.
Sighhhh You know how people post this kind of crap and then say "Accept me for who I am! I'm messy! I make mistakes! I don't look perfect all the time! Blah blah blah!" Screw that. I wish I could change and I'm embarassed as hell about this. I know I've said it before but I'm a big fan of transparency (nearly to the point of oversharing but that's subjective.) It's kind of an "Am I the only one? TELL ME I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE!!!" Come on slobs...admit it. Otherwise I'm just going to sign myself up for that show "Hoarders: Buried Alive".
Hope this made you feel like cleaning.
