I yelled.
I yelled a lot this morning.
At my sweet 8 year old who was not ready for school when we needed to go and I had to remind him 5 times to do things he does everyday!
One problem was he couldn't find any clean clothes...because I haven't put away his laundry for three weeks. I know you are thinking..."well why doesn't he put away his OWN laundry?"...and I would say "you are exactly right!" He should be putting away his own laundry. We just haven't got there yet.
That is a pile of clean clothes. They are all clean. For two+ weeks this pile has been in our bedroom (to the left of this picture). I moved it to it's present location two days ago....
What is wrong with me? Actually the reason is I don't want to carry it all upstairs. *guh* I am so lame errr lazy! This morning we scrounged around looking for clothes and I was ugly mommy and sent him off to school with that memory. I feel terrible about it. He needs a system for his clothes that works for him (like laying out his clothes the night before), but first that I need to move this pile from out of my kitchen!!!!
Today I am going to put away the kids laundry!!
& evaluate how to help them do it themselves
(that doesn't involve stuffing it under their beds which leads to no clean underwear)!!
(update: I didn't get this done. I did get the guest room put back together though. Last night I pulled out clothes for the kids so they didn't have to dig for them this morning, that helped a lot!)
