Can’t Take My Eyes Off These Blogs #3
I had yesterday off from my real job, so I spent day one of working on the rental property. Three hours cleaning the most disgusting refrigerator I’ve ever seen has left me a bit tired. If I’d never had a child, I don’t think I could have done it, but after you’ve been puked, peed and pooped on, most things just aren’t so bad. My husband gets a shift today with some demolition in the bathroom. It should be fun. I think I need to find something cute to call him on my blog, but I just can’t come up with anything. Mr. Eyes just sounds creepy, and Mr. E.D., well we just don’t want to go anywhere near that. If anyone can come up with a clever name, I’m all ears.

Hey Kim, thanks for the mention! Sorry I’m just now commenting. While Michelle’s at fincon, I guess I’ll be doing all the commenting!
We ended up doing absolutely nothing….a couple board games….watched football. That was awesome. I used to be upset if I DIDN’T have things going on during a weekend. Now I’m angry if I do.
Thanks for the mention! 🙂
lmao @ ‘Mr ED’…no I don’t think he would appreciate that nickname. It’s too bad you didn’t take a photo of that nasty fridge. We do celebrate Labor Day up in Canada too, but I’m not sure of countries outside of North America. I hope your long weekend is going well.
I thought about that after the fact. No one would truly believe the sheer nastiness of it. It will live on in my mind.
This weekend I’m working and then relaxing on Monday! Enjoy the long weekend, Chat soon! Cheers Mr.CBB
Long weekends are truly wonderful, enjoy!
Thanks so much for the mention! Learning to speak southern is no joke for northerners! I know–first-hand.
If you need some lessons, let me know.
That sounds like a really nasty fridge. Yuck! I hope the 3 hours of hard work you put in made it nice and pretty again. 🙂
It’s a thing of beauty. I am slightly prouder of giving birth, but cleaning that fridge might be second.
Great roundup!
Thanks for the mention!
Hope you have a great long weekend!
Thanks for the great content this week!
