it's already wednesday and i want to scream "wait. i want a do over. or at least give me one day back.
~
yesterday i cleaned. not my house. but the house where my son and 4 other boys have been living.
the house where 213 of their closet friends have been hanging out for months.
it was disgusting and i had to shower afterwards to rid myself of the grime that had somehow slathered itself all over my body, like poorly applied lotion, BUT i have to admit, that it's been along time since i've worked so hard on something, where i could stand back and really admire the results.
don't worry. i wasn't alone. my son and the other boys were helping me. and sure they could have done it without my help. but guess what. 20 year old boys still need their mothers or at least a mother figure around when it comes to cleaning a 4 bedroom house that's going back on the rental market. 20 year old boys also need a mother around around to scare the crap out of the above mentioned friends when they stop over in the middle of our cleaning project.
"don't even think about coming in here today or any other day this week. do you understand me. you are not to set foot on these premises anytime this week. got it"
yep. those were my exact words,
spoken in a low voice while i gave them a look that they don't ever want to see again.

whew. okay. enough of that.
the sunflower field down the road from us should be completely filled in by this weekend.
i was there this past sunday and only a hundred of the thousands of flowers had opened up.
also, i found some strangers to jump for me, so that made for the perfect afternoon.
i love this photo. i call it half awake.
so since i'm now out of words
{due to fog brain caused by inhaling too many cleaning products yesterday}
and
you're probably tired of reading
i'll keep it simple by showing you the rest of the photos from our weekend
