I have a Singer machine similar to that one - I'd be glad to try and talk you through threading it, if you like.

that's my house!!! Especially the clothes on the floor in the baby's room part....

I can almost relate to the clothes, although, if stuff is like that on the couch I freak out. I make sure everything is thrown down the hallway. If I don't see it, it doesn't matter if it's messy. heh

I wouldn't even begin to attempt sewing anything.

"thread that bitch up"....i just spit.

"thread that bitch up"... wasn't that an industrial song by The Prodigy?

Oh My Gawd, do you need help cleaning? I am sending you a gift certificate for Merry Maids!
Expect it by Monday!

I am serious too! Hey but just because were stay at home Moms does'nt mean we don't deserve to get a break sometime, my FIVE plus ONE are driving me NUTSO, minimum days all week, Holy Crap, that means I actually have to cook them lunch! Damn our school system for making me be responsible for these brats!

And another thing 42EE, in my flippin dreams! Well maybe not, but can I get a loan on some titty! My A cup isnt quite cutting it!

PS Send me a mailing Addy!

HEY! Who let you in my house?? LOL.

My house looks like that, and I don't have any good excuses like you have. But hey: don't worry about it. Play with your kids. The mess will still be there tomorrow, but every day your kids will be older. Priorities. And it looks to me like yours are pretty darn good.

when i was home for two months after my surgery last year, that is EXACTLY what my house looked like. i need structure to stay organized. it seemed there was never enough time in the day to get stuff done. working 60 hours a week it's clean(ish)- go figure.

OMG! I learned to sew on a Singer exactly like that one! And it was such an extreme beetch to thread up, I never, ever wanted to sew again!!

As soon as I learn to thread that bitch...omidog Y...I can't stop LAUGHING!! HAHAHAHAHAAHAH!

You rock!

Messy house moms of the world, unite!

Yeaah! Tha's what I'm talkin' about!

-H

Yvie, I love you. You go girl!

Yvonne! What have I told you about breaking into my house and taking pictures and posting them on your weblog?????

Damn, you are effing hilarious!!!! That's my house! Yeah, most people have effed up visions of what staying home is like! I love this entry! Just cause you stay home doesnt mean you can or want to cook three homemade meals a day, have a perfectly clean house, and have all your curtains homemade! :) Love your blog!!!!

Girl...what is wrong with your house?? That is my house on a daily basis. We are soul sisters.

Gabby and the boys will love you anyway!!

Who has time to even care about cleaning when there is an adorable unexpected joy to play with all day? That's what I tell my husband, anyway!

Also, we have the same swing. It's the bomb. Ruby loves those fishies!

This looks oh-so familiar to me. Even the damn sewing machine I can't thread. I was going to make clothes and cloth diapers. WTF? My youngest is 4 years old, so I can cut myself some slack on that diaper production thing.

How did my Grandmother do everything she did? It baffles my mind.

wow... are those cobwebs on your Sewing Singer?

hehe.

I ONLY wish my house looked as good as yours. My messes tend to be papers, animal toys and crap like that. Clothes and stuff like that would be a pleasure to deal with. Plus, my carpet and furniture is not nearly a pretty as yours so even the slightest mess here makes it look like trailer trash. I don't dare post pics of my house! Eek!

I'd come clean your house just for the chance to play with that cute little girl of yours, as my cute little girl is almost 7 years old now.

Oh yeah, and I completely agree with mamacita about having your priorities. Your kids will NOT care or even remember that your house was always clean, but they will remember that you took the time to play with them and pay attention to them. Being a stay at home mom is NOTHING like the parenting magazines or tv try to make it out to be. We try to do the best we can and try to remember that our jobs NEVER END! It's 24/7/365 and we're lucky to get a shower on a daily basis. Throw in the fact that your titties are on-call, it's a wonder you have time at all. Keep your head up, it'll get better. You're doing fine.

Eh! same life ... different house...lol

I'd freaking LOVE having you as a Mom.

My Mom = anal

Thank you for posting these pictures. I'm a working mom whose home is an absolute disaster, a mine field of toys and clothes and crumbs. It's nice to hear that SAHMs have just as much difficulty keeping up! :)

I love it! ROFL! Came over from Shutterblog btw...
