Clean socks are a privilege, not a right
Welcome to Crunchy Carpets. The House of Crunch is filled with kids (3), dogs (2) cats (3) and some lizards too. This blog is about trying to keep it all together and not lose my mind.
No really, we will have the chest of drawers finished before this baby is born. Really. Staring at the bits will make it happen. Doing one tiny bit every week or so, will get it done. The instructions make my husband run away. We appear to no longer have a power screwdriver. This is […]
Sheesh. So tired, I can’t even focus on one thing at at time….I think my brain is at the same productivity level as the dogs…no offence Callie. We had one day back at school till a massive PUKE session kept Adam home for two days. Yes, a lot of blogging families have been experiencing barf […]
