A Woman's Work is Never Done

WOW! I am on my 7th load of laundry for today. We had a rainy spell and some really humid weather so my clothesline was useless, needless to say I put off my laundry till i could use it again. I finally got it finished this week also; I couldn't put up half of my rope because of a missing hook! I also actually managed to get my 3 year old to help me clean up some today. Everything she put away was HERS. She takes over the house and is horrible about picking things up. Minus moving all the baby equipment I should be able to vacuum my living room tonight, and finish my dishes, or at least get another load in the dishwasher. I never knew that 6 people could create so much work, I really feel sorry for my mom now, because she worked a full time job, worked at our family business, followed me to almost all of my high school activities (mostly sports) and managed to keep a nicer house than I can. Granted the circumstances were a bit different, and I'm sure we all helped with our share, but it is amazing how poorly I keep house compared to my mom. I can come up with a thousand excuses not to do household chores, and believe me I take advantage of said excuses often! Here is a pictuer of my mom from camping last weekend, she is amazing :)
