    Funny Ladies !!!!!

    im gonna whine.. not complaining per say but just need to whine...

    Contractors are here, sawing, pounding, hammering so much its echoing thru the house.. It is so loud that it gives me headaches..If I leave nothing gets done- housework, laundry, playing on the QB... Then the electricians were here and I cannot believe they left wire pieces, sawdust, wood cutouts and their trash all over.. REALLY?!?!?! I pay you to do a job and I have to clean up after you?!?!?!?! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.... Chaps my butt!!!! Id like to send THEM a cleaning bill ! While they are here I come to find out I need to empty out the pantry just so they can add to more switches to the electrical box INSIDE the pantry (I swear I have like 3 months supply of food in there!!!!) Its a small-ish walk in panty... All the canned, jar and boxed goods are now all over the counters, dining table ( which is where i swap!!!!) and island .. What a mess!!!! Found some hersheys bars meant for smores- Good score!!! But yet more work, and I still have yet to put the stuff back in there.. and now hubby has the painters coming in today- not thursday like he said, to paint the lower level of the house!!!! so all day yesterday we had to clear out the lower level of the house. 3 Couches, more furniture, a million and one toys ( literally 15-20 of the 30 gallon totes filled with toys) yes I admit it- my lil one IS spoiled.. so now ALL her toys are in her room and her room is trashed... if its not one thing its another that i have to clean up and organize... Oh yea, the guy is coming wed to replace the front door. wonderful darling PITA hubby has boxes stacked up over there.. just more crap to do.... I can honestly tell you NONE of this was my idea.... My house is a mess and its driving me crazy, I dont like chaos, and I dont like feeling like i live in a pig sty... I need to put the stuff back in the pantry before i can begin swapping.. there goes today..... grrrrrrrr....

    If i could, i'd start throwing things but then Id just have more to clean up... OK im done whining.. I think..

    Aww luv, wish I could take you shop hopping! You know, once you clean up after animals....they expect it every time. But complaining to them will just cause them to slow down or worse... eat your chocolate..... Your house will be sooo amazing when it's finished!!! I agree with Mitesa... You need a toy (cough cough) long arm??? HUGS!!!!!
