i've often wondered how i'm going to handle the enormous mess that a baby will bring. hopefully over the last year and a half that i've been in school, i've learned to be a little more flexible with things like how often the dusting and mopping get done, how often the cabinets get wiped down, or how often the bathrooms get the top to bottom scrub down. i mean, it definitely still bothers me when stuff isn't done, but i'd like to think that i don't have an absolute meltdown when it's not done. i have to admit, i had quite the back ache yesterday after doing all that stuff, but i don't think it's going to stop me from getting back to it today!
