The Cleaning Fairy

I mentioned in the last post that Greg has left for D.C. This means a few things for me... one I can stay up as late as I want and no one tells me it is time for bed, two once I go to sleep I can use the entire bed, and three I can be a complete and utter slob for a few days. This is the way that my brain works whenever he leaves town...but did you know that there is no magic cleaning fairy? It's true, as I looked around the house today and debated if I really needed to get out of my pajamas; or could I possible make a meal out of some soy milk and a completely frozen turkey?... I decided that I could (don't ask me how...I'll give you a clue the turkey is still in the freezer). Then I realized that I too was leaving for D.C. in a couple of day's, and that meant that I would have to clean before I left, that is when I realized that my amazing plot of being a slob while Greg was gone, had backfired. Yes, it is 11:00pm and I am folding laundry doing dishes and wondering if I can get the floors mopped before 2:00am? Even as I write this I am sure that the next time Greg leaves town this will happen again because it has been happening for the last six years, and I hate changing my ways. I can't wait to see Greg and for him to come home so I have a little motivation because something tells me that I would be a bum if I could and stay in my pajamas all day long, read books, and watch more chick flicks than anyone has a right to. I have really loved the past few day's but I really look forward to waking up to a clean house tomorrow. I also look forward to meeting my husband in D.C. Nope there is no magic cleaning fairy, which is really too bad because right now as I type this and wait for the dryer to be done I keep thinking how nice it would be to watch some tear jerker movie and when the movie is done turning on the lights and the whole house would be clean! Something tells me that I should have listened to Peter Pan and gone to Never Land!

PS: While I thought of posting a picture of the apartment I realized it would be much more fun to let your imaginations run wild! So have some fun at my expense!
