It all started with Josiah playing in the toilet. So I figured I'd put him in the tub. Then Chloe wanted to get in the tub too. I knew they would want to play for a while, they always do, so I thought instead of just sitting there I'd do a deep clean on the toilet. It's been really bugging me lately that I just walk in the bathroom and it smells like urine, gross. So I got my one rubber glove (lost the other one during the move I think), my little scrub brush and my mountain fresh Soft Scrub. Josiah and Chloe were doing good and I was scrubbing away. Then Josiah decided that he wanted to get out. He kept trying to climb out but I really wanted to get this little job done while I had the littles confined in the tub, and I hadn't even washed him yet so he HAD to stay in longer. I tried to distract him and kept cleaning. Then he reached out and grabbed the toilet. Good thing I already cleaned that part! I finished the job and washed up. I washed Josiah and got him out of the tub and down to nap. So I did get the toilet and the littles clean...it was just a little crazy along the way. Sometimes I wonder if it's times like these that I'm really making it harder on myself. But then I also think that my toilet would never get cleaned because I just have to go with it when I get inspired.

Oh boy do I understand multitasking!! I think that it always works out that right when I really get involved and excited about getting something done someone changes their mind about the activity they are currently involved in and I end up working ten times harder to finish the task at hand--of course when I think about before the kiddos, getting to hem and haw as I pleased, I remember it as being much less exciting and entertaining than our lives now. Who knew that cleaning my bathroom could involve so much effort? All well worth my energy!
I clean the bathroom when my kids are in the tub too. It's the only way things get done.
