After a long day of cleaning I find out this:

The boy is very 2 these days, but yesterday he was being very sweet. He came up to me and said "Momma, Can I messy you?" Seeing the tape measure in his hand I said "Sure, Buddy!"

He says "Oh Day ay" and proceeds to put the heavy part of the tape measure on the floor and pulled up on the tape. The Boy got a very serious look on his face, leaned in to take a closer look at the "1 inch" mark and then looked me straight in the eye and said "ooooh, Momma, you messy 40 points" then went on his way.

I'm not sure what scale I was being measured on, but I hope 40 points is good. I've been busting my butt getting the house in shape! LOL! He even helped me vacuum before this.

A very Non Princess tea

As the self proclaimed Princess of Everyday adventures, I do, form time to time, throw small intimate tea parties for my friends.

Now these are not by any means lavish affairs, they usually consist of well, tea. Food may or may not be served, it is mostly about the tea.

Yesterday I did throw a very small party with unusual party favors. I have just 3 guests plus myself and each guest left with a hunk of beef and partially used salt and pepper grinders.

The hunks of beef were leftover form a party on Friday and the grinders were a gift form the manager of a Red Lobster. They have a rule that they cannot put the grinders on the table once the contents get below the label, so they tend to have a ton of these grinders around 1/3 full!! They do get creative with the give-aways, though!

Anyway. Just thought I'd clue you in on how to throw a successful tea party from a Trophy Wife in Training.

I'm no longer waiting for something interesting to happen.

I've decided my "ordinary" life is interesting enough.

This morning I pulled out a fistful size clump from the vacuum. No, this isn't very interesting, but the opening I pulled it from was about an inch and a half across, and I only reached in as far as my 2 fingers would allow without removing the brush rollers. I managed to pull out a handful of lint, 2 puzzle pieces, a cap to something we got around Christmas time, several hair ties and assorted papers. I guess I need to get better about picking things up before I start to vacuum.

So now you know that I may not be the best housekeeper, but I do vacuum, and I do know what to do when the vacuum isn't sucky anymore.

Happy New Year!!

Well, here we are day 4 of the new year and I am already not living up to my full potential. I had planned on trying to blog a bit every day.

Here is today's blog. I hope you enjoyed it.
