:Dbut it just isn't happening!
I have my photo area all set up, and in the past hour I have taken 1 picture. Here is a list of what I have done:
Sat down to take pictures, and see that I need that I missed a spot on a toy, and I need to wipe it better.
Go to get my magic eraser, and I hear the dryer go off.
Pulled sheets out of dryer, put on bed with the intent to make the bed.
Ah, kids are hungry! Started boiling water for some mac n cheese, and then ran out to check if the washer had finished.
Washer was done, put jeans in the dryer. Started a new load in the washer.
Come back in, check water, it isn't boiling. Kids are happy outside catching geckos, so lunch isn't as urgent.
Go back and put fitted sheet on the mattress, DS10 comes in, they want to show me the gecko they caught, as it is molting.
Go out, look at gecko. Go to garage and get the screened in butterfly house thing that we have, and help the kids put the gecko in there for observation.
Come back in, OH DARN the damn water is really boiling now. Toss in the noodles.
Decide we are having tostadas tonight before softball practice, so I get the crockpot down so I don't have to try to cook while getting all the gear together later.
Start defrosting the ground beef.
Stir noodles. Get can of tomato sauce and spices for the crockpot.
Kids are outside screaming in delight, and call me to come again, as they have caught another gecko, and this one has lost its tail. Add this poor fellow into the butterfly house.
Run back in to stir noodles, they are done.. .drain and set aside.
Kids are happy outside, so I have time to finish making my bed, pickup the stuff that kids have dragged into my bedroom.
Go to drop clothes in the hamper in the bathroom, and I see that the kids have left shoes, etc in there. Take all of that out, and down the hall to their rooms.
Come back into living room, I see my camera by my eBay stuff, grab it to take a picture of my kids and their cousin and the poor geckos.
Post a quick pic onto Facebook so my cousin can see what her daughter is doing over here.
Now the kids are starving, so they all come in, wash up, wipe the table, and prep for lunch.
Finish heating up the rest of their meal (corn dogs today-- we are having a junky lunch, the kids are thrilled)
UGH I forgot I was defrosting meat. Get it out, put it in the crockpot with garlic, tomato sauce, salt, comino, and a touch of chili powder.
This was just in a hour, and I wonder why nothing is getting done while my darlings are home on Spring Break.
Here are three of my kids, their cousin, and their geckoprison habitat. Mine are the three without glasses.
