Job Jar Update

Teresa on Feb 25th 2010

So, an amendment for the job jar. Thought of this last night as I was inspired by both Mercedez and Boston. Mercedez didn’t want to unload the dishwasher and said that it was “worth a quarter to not have to do it”… She is way too smart for her own good. Boston didn’t want to [...]

Trying something new… I feel a change in the air

Teresa on Feb 23rd 2010

This whole single parenting thing is starting to catch up with me. The house is harder to keep up with and the girls haven’t been much help in the cleaning department. For that, I take full responsibility. I haven’t been able to figure out how to make them clean up after themselves.  They are like [...]

Another chapter closed

Teresa on Sep 15th 2009

So yesterday I avoided scrubbing bathrooms in favor of scrubbing floors. As you know in order to scrub the floor, you have to first be able to see it.

Mother’s Day

Teresa on May 9th 2009

Am I the only mom that, for Mother’s Day, just wants the day off? This morning, I made my bed, made breakfast, and made a buck emptying pockets. I picked up the toys, picked out Willow’s clothes, and pick the cheese off of Boston’s eggs (cuz she didn’t order them that way). I changed a diaper, changed the [...]
