    Most of the time, hearing of other peoples' happiness depresses me.

    I've eaten nothing but a healthy breakfast, chocolate peanut butter brownies, Nilla wafers and a turkey sandwich today because I spent the day cleaning my girls' room. Seven....SEVEN bags of trash and three bins of toys. I still have to go through the clothes tomorrow. If I find anything on their floor and it's not picked up by Friday's, I'm throwing it away. This is IT!

    Do you have the kids help clean or is it easier to just do it yourself?

    Normally I make them responsible for their own areas but this was out of control for too long so I had to step in.

    Takes me back to when my kids were smaller ..I'd sit on the bed and tell them what had to be done, point out what had to be picked up and where it had to go. Ensured it was done the way I wanted it but without me actually doing it ..I loved it :D ..

    They refer to it as slave labour time :D

    Yesterday I put on Titanic in the background while I was grading. And then this morning I still had a couple hours of grading to do, and I was too lazy to look for a new thing to play in the background. So I replayed Titanic. Now I'm too invested to turn it off though. So I'm currently sitting on my couch watching Titanic for the second time in two days.

    I have done this EXACT same thing. But I wasn't grading papers and it wasn't the titanic. I was matching socks and it was spongebob.

    Spongebob > Titanic

    any day of the week

    Sometimes this site makes me want to punch myself in the face

    Funny. I was just thinking the same thing.

    I confess I would like to throat punch my boss. I was just informed we will not be getting any days off for Christmas or New Year's.
