But More importantly that last before shot lead to this........

My shoes are behind my closet door instead of on the floor!! Yes, your eyes do not deceive. You see one of the flannels I said I was going to get rid of. It would make a nice "Jacket" to wear over my overalls when I am doing yard work or working in my garden on those days it's just a bit nippy out.
Thank you to Sayre for challenging me to clean out my closet!!!
Unfortunately I recently cleaned out and straightened up my linen closet so I will wait for your next challenge! I am excited to find out what you will choose next!!

Closet of Doom

While visiting Sayre yesterday for Fun Monday I couldn't help but notice my favorite magazine in her post below. Of course I had to go read. She has started a challenge and I joined. She has called it "MY LIFE IS A MESS CHALLENGE!" My life IS a mess. Her first challenge is her closet. I had already been thinking of tackling mine. So many clothes I have not worn for years taking up precious space...but it is a total mess, a clutter fuck. If this is the only challenge of hers I participate in it will be worth it! Head over to her place if you want to join. You get a week to complete said closet challenge from the day you post photos of offending closet.

Okay, I want you to imagine the Jaws music playing as you view these photos.... Oh my gawd I can not believe I am doing this. So I just took the photos and It's not as bad as I thought it was...What you might not be able to tell is that there are layers in there...a lot of layers...I see where my kids get their stalling tactics from... Cue Jaws music...
I did not photo hubby's portion...that is his mess. Some of the shelves on the right hand side of the 2nd to last photo belong to hubby so I will not be tackling his shelves either.

I might share photos over the coming week of whatever my heart desires. If you think you see something in these photos that you might want let me know. It may be something I am getting rid of...just ask! I'll show a more detailed photo of something if asked!
Now off to work I go, high ho.

And I'm Spent!

So, I got busy under pressure and I am done! The house is picked up and ready for in-law eyes. I knew I could do it. It is still not near the perfection I'd like it to be. I have at least come to terms with the freak in me that thinks my house should be perfection for my in-laws. Not only have I accomplished my cleaning goals I battled my inner demons! How cool is that? All with 4 hours to spare before their estimated arrival! My back is killin' me though. I guess that is just the price I pay sometimes, that and sweat and B.O., skipping breakfast.......



Yes, for anyone that has visited me before today knows my blog as "Momma K & 3 Lil' Men". I felt I wanted to change my Blog name since I had noticed that out of all 13, now 14 posts only 2 dealt with my kiddos or Motherhood. So there you have it, whether you wanted it or not, why I changed my name, and description. If you liked my first name better, leave me a comment. Leave me a comment if you have a better idea. Drop me a note to just say Hi. Heck tell me anything your little heart desires. Can you tell I would really like to hear from any potential readers? Yes I do!

Now all that is left is for me to do is make sure these Lil' Men don't erase all that I have done.
