The Big Pink Spot

I dropped my older two at camp today--after 3 years with the oldest one, I thought it would be easier, but I still felt a little choked up while driving away! Of course, that could be due to the fact that I was leaving my two best workers behind. This means a lot more chores for me......which brings me to the title of this blog.

Housework, to me, has always seemed a lot like the big pink spot in the Dr. Seuss book, The Cat in the Hat Comes Back. It never really goes away--it just moves from room to room to room! First, the spot (mess) is in the kitchen and then it gets transferred to the bathroom, then the family room and so on...and before you know it, it's all one huge blob and somehow, no series of little cats ever show up at my house to blast the whole thing away!

So, this week, it's up to me, my 6 year old, my almost 4 year old and my exhausted husband to fend off the pink spot...wish us luck!

Oh my, that is totally IT!! That's exactly how I feel! Hope your kids have a great time at camp and you survive without them!
