Messy Kind of Night

September 24, 2008 by Amy

It got messy around here tonight.  As the girls have gotten older we haven’t had QUITE the number of messes we have had in the past but tonight was an exception!

I was quickly trying to make my shake before going to church.  I had the water and ice in the blender and dropped a bunch of the chocolate powder from the scoop on its way to the blender all over the counter and blender.  I dumped the rest of the powder in the blender and thought I should clean it up since that stuff is like glue if you let it sit there.  Well, smart me decides I’ll multi-task and let the blender run while I clean it up.  Yeah, well, I didn’t have the lid on and when I turned it on, the now wet powder flew everywhere.  Another mess to clean up.

Tonight as we walk in the door from church, I was carrying two book bags, a lunchbox, my bible, phone, keys and cup with said milkshake cup.  It had a small amount left in it and I accidentally leaned over and poured the leftover shake all over the lunchbox, Lexi’s book bag and the floor.  I cleaned the floor up and threw her book bag in the washing machine.

Then.  Lexi apparently didn’t wipe very well after going potty over at MIL’s house so I had her go to the potty to clean and change her.  I got the dirty panties off and while I was putting those up, Lexi starts taking the rest of her clothes off and flings her sock behind her which lands in the DIRTY toilet water.  I had to fish that out and throw it in the sink.

THEN.  We walk out to the kitchen and I make the girls chocolate milk and Lexi goes to turn her cup up and spills some of it on the floor.  OMG!  The messes!

I was needing but some blog fodder but really.  I could have done without all that.

    Oh my! I am notoriously clumsy but not sure I’ve had quite the list of spills you just described!
