A two week break was perfect and just what I needed. Now it's time to get back in the saddle and hit the books again. This week starts the beginning of a new class about Arizona and US Government. A class I really do not want to take as I do not live in Arizona so the class really is not going to do me any good. However it is on my list of required classes so take it I will.
Among all the chaos of having a two week break and going to Girls Camp I have also been in the midst of a move. Now that everything is moved I have been busting my hind end for the last 3 days to get that house clean so that they can finally interview someone and get them moved into the house.
Cleaning your house and doing you homework normally with 3 kids running around (one of them is at Grandma's helping in the hay field) is not an easy task and I am having to clean as well as try to entertain 3 kids under the age of 6 in a house with no toys for hours while I am getting our old house clean enough for someone to come right in to and not have to worry about cleaning it before they do. I've got it pretty dang clean in the time that I have been able to be over there with three kids underfoot and one of them that still is a must nap child taking about 5 hours of the day that I am at our new house to feed kids and put them down for naps.
this morning I get a phone call from my husband saying that his boss thinks I need to do more cleaning before they can pain. Now they want me to wash all the walls that I have already scrubbed the crap out of. You would not believe the messes that you find from having three boys after you move all of your stuff out of a place and you can see naked walls. So they want me to re-wash all the walls before they will paint and try to get out pink stains that are next to impossible to get out. (side note - never EVER give your kids strawberry crystal lite unless you are camping and it can spill in the dirt. no matter what you do it will end up on the carpet and in places you didn't think juice could get and it likes to stick it's tongue out at you when you try to get it out.)
So in addition to all of this chaos I am struggling to keep up with my new class and the DQ's as well as the other homework because I have been spending all my time cleaning a house that I no longer live in trying to get it clean enough for them to paint it and so I can get to work on the yard. Hubs and kids better pick up the slack tonight because mama is on the verge of a mental and physical break down.
Okay end of vent now it's off to wash walls that have already been washed, cleans stains that won't come up, clean out vents that are clean and get the rest of our stuff out of the yard all with out biting someones head off.
