Things That Have Happened...

since my house was beautifully cleaned yesterday.

1.  We slept in the beds, and today is the first day in a long time that I just don't care to make mine again.
2.  Basia did crafts that involved lots of tiny pieces of paper and green yarn.  There is evidence of this in a surprising number of places.
3.  Basia played with play-doh.  Enough said.
4.  Brishen built a rocket kit from his grandmother and knocked it over inside, spilling lots of white powder (I'm assured it's baking soda) all over my floor. 
5.  Brishen set off a rocket or two outside, creating a spray that makes it completely unbelievable that the windows were really just cleaned one day ago.
6.  I took a bath in my giant jet tub, the first one in a month or so, yes, the very day after it was beautifully cleaned.  Should I mention that I haven't washed my bath mat yet, so I (yep, the responsible one here) got wet footprints on the floor.
7.  I cooked.  We ate.  Nobody did the breakfast dishes.
8.  Jon came home from a retreat and loaded our laundry basket to the very top.  He gets the retreat, and I get the laundry.  How exactly is that fair?

I'm sure there's more.  I just don't care to think too much more about it right now.  Just remember this:  if you come to my house and it is in a state of disaster, you may be only a very few hours too late to have seen it sparklingly clean.
