The Truth Hurts

So, I am not a big fan of cleaning. I LOVE organizing - to a fault. It takes forever, and I go WAY overboard. Jerry hates it when I start organizing closets because that is when I find old letters or journals and I get lost forever reading while I'm organizing. OK, back to cleaning. I think I don't like cleaning because I do it every day, and the next morning you can't tell that I did anything. Our house feels so small too, that even if it is spotless, once a couple toys come out it seems messy and cluttered again. Our house is comfortable and lived in. So, anyway there is the background you need to know. Today I was gone all morning to my 1st Dr. appointment, (which was great by the way. So cool to hear the baby's heartbeat - more about that in another post though.) and visiting. I got back just in time to get the kids lunch before my tutoring student came. He is a sweet, honest boy. He will be turning 7 next month, and he likes to tell me how his house is much bigger than ours, and they have more tvs than we do. I'm also wondering if his 14 year old brother knows that he is using his cologne. Every session he has cologne on, I'm really hoping it's not his, but his brothers. Ok, moving on, He comes at 1:00 which is right after the kids have lunch and literally a few minutes after I put Rebecca down for her nap. (Not the cleanest time of the day,) Well, today he asked me why my house is always so dirty. OUCH! I guess the truth hurts. Kind of funny in a way, but a little too honest too. Back to working on one of my New Year's Resolutions, Not to worry when people stop by unannounced, because my house is already spotless. I sincerely hope I'm not the only one that has a hard time keeping my house clean.
