And I'm back!

Wow, what a 10 minute cleaning frenzy and a locked playroom door will do to a woman! I have asked, begged, yelled and asked some more for the kids to CLEAN their playroom. I don't mean full on clean, but get everything off the futon and off the floor and into the bins where they "think" it belongs--you know, put it back where you got it from. All afternoon they played and played in that messy room, but it looked the same as it did when they went it...not ONE thing picked up. So, in I went with a garbage bag, picked up everything on the floor and futon, closed the bag and stuffed it way up high in the closet so no one, barely me, can reach it. And then what did I do? I shut the door and locked it behind me. The Casey playroom is off limits for the rest of today and quite possibly the entire day tomorrow (sorry cats, you will have to lay in the rays of sunshine in another room tomorrow). Don't get upset....I'm not that mean. The playroom only contains about 80% of their toys, so there are things to play with....until I get in the mood to clean their bedrooms! LOL! Can't wait until they are teenagers!

Oh you are a brave woman!!! If I sealed off the downstairs my kids would drive me bonkers!!! Hopefully they got the point though...sometimes we have to very dramatic for them to get the point!
