Post #2, endlessly treading water

So, you can see what I am up against.

I woke up all perky, planning to get the house cleaned and decrease the clutter (aka,finding the kitchen table). While I am being perky in the kitchen, my three year old is drawing all over my 200 pound Mastiff, Hugger, who is drooling all over my couch. I am not even sure what my seven year old has on her hand, some kind of slime. She is excited about it though! Why even try to clean, right! I think this is a sign, so,I'm off to eat Oreos.
