I am at home cleaning today. I did a lot of work on top of taking care of the boys yesterday, and I just wanted to take today to relax, but nope, I am taking care of the boys again and cleaning, and doing laundry while hubby is sleeping.. The dude has vacation this week, and I am working hard 7 days a week.. What is even more sad is that we are not going to see the fire works because hubby thinks that it will scare the kids to much.. Now that really sucks!
So, anyone else home cleaning and taking care of the kids today?

I cleaned yesterday because it was DH's birthday, and he went with his family, and our sons out on a boat... Being pregnant that sounded like the opposite of fun to me so I stayed home cleaned the house, and relaxed. Today the house is clean, and the dog popped our kids pool so we are sitting around waiting for fireworks to begin later.
My house is the same way. I have a hubby & 4 kids and I will clean one room,start working on the next and the kids start tracking back into the finshed room.I have a group where we do before & after pics so we can see our progress & show off what we got done,well thats what we say,we know the pics are just so we have proof that our house was clean at some point.lol
Quoting Neeters1:
Yeah I know.. That is how it seems around here too. By the end of the night I am so tired I can just drop! What is so sad is I am so sore by the end of the night you would think that I would of lost some weight, but sadly not. LOL!
Quoting luvmyparties:
Doesn't it make ya crazy! I swear I clean up one mess to move on to the next.... turn around and BAM! there is a mess where I just cleaned!!!
Quoting Neeters1:
Oh goodness girl I know what you mean. I am cleaning everyday too! It seems that I clean every day all day long. But you have me beat on everyone who is in your house. We have 2 dogs, 3 cats and 1 toddler, and 1 pre-schooler, and 1 hubby.. But it seems that my house is always a mess anyways..
Quoting luvmyparties:
Girl I clean EVERYDAY! Considering my 3 sons, 3 dogs, 1 dh, 1 brother, 1 SIL and my neice all live here. I am always cleaning. DAMN!
the 4th sucks for us anyways. One of us always has to stay home with my older dog. She had a firework thrown at her as a pup and freaks the hell out on the 4th.

I know the feeling all to well! It is just not fair. We should at least get some kind of benifit from it, like losing weight!
Quoting luvmyparties:Girl I can run laps around my house cleaning all day long and not drop an ounce! LOL

Oh man, what is it with families today.. It is hard to be home on a holiday expecially when you know that you could be out having fun. I would love to do a BBQ today but hubby is to much of a party pooper. He is mad at me because I got upset about how I am feeling around this house lately. I feel like I am the maid, whore, babysitter, doctor, taxi, cook, etc. He just works an 8 hour job and then get to come home and relax. Like today he is on vacation when he could be helping with at least watching the kids but nope he is laying in bed sleeping and reading.. I am to crabby for him I guess...
Quoting abmm:I should be cleaning but I have absolutely no motivation. We were supposed to go to a BBQ with family today but I guess we were "uninvited" since she said she is just going to fry a couple of hamburgers for her kids. I'm tired of being single and "alone" for every holiday.

I am cleaning today too. Woke up in one of those moods.
I cleaned the kids' room, took it all apart and really cleaned it. Took me a good 2 hours.
I cleaned the bathroom with bleach and it looks much better.
I am getting ready to start on the living room.
I AM taking my kids to see the fireworks tonight, no matter what anyone says. I started taking them when they were born. My son 3 months old the first time, and he slept through them. I don't think they are scary.
UPDATE... My hubby's boss was in a good mood and since he came in early and has to work bunch tomorrrow morning they let him go so we went ...
