MOMMY STRESS LEVEL IS HIGH

Yes, my mommy-stress level is pretty high and it made me publish this post at the wrong blog. Argh.

Anyway, as I type, water is flowing from a powder room in the living room area, down to the foyer by the front door of my home.

Why, do you ask?

Because TK decided to wash out his watercolors, and filled the sink till it overflowed.

Hence, a watery mess.

This is not the first time one of my children has caused water to flow from one floor to another. The last time, I had an entire team in here dehumidifying, cleaning, repainting and fixing. It took weeks.

Am I going to do that again?

No.

I am getting ready for vacation. Not even the destructive elements of water can spoil my happy thoughts.

Okay, I lie. I'm not happy right now. TK is having a time out because if I catch him right now, it won't be pretty.

So, I am taking a time out, as well. Sharing the most recent child-induced stress with computer friends.

How are you guys doing? Hope you don't have any water issues at your house and that your day goes by smoothly, as the breeze.

The #SSDSWAG event ends tomorrow so if you are yet to participate, do so. The 2 winners will be announced on Friday.

Take care people! I'm off to clean up this mess.
