6:16 amYou
So you know how you’ve always thought that I’m perfect? Like, I’ve totally got my act together… perfect wife, mother, and friend? (Why are you laughing? Shut up.) Well this, dear friends of the internets, is my one giant flaw… the one thing that my husband would leave me over:
…my complete inability to keep the kitchen desk clean. It’s not so much a desk as it is a solid wood, hand crafted trash can amassed with piles of garbage, and bills, and ads, and pictures, and bags of craft stuff, and “$20 Off” coupons to Famous Footwear… okay, the coupon is a cool thing.
Yes, if my husband were to leave me, it would be for a person who could keep her piles of crap in check. She could be a total dog. A hag. In fact she could be a he… I think as long as the house was kept junk-pile-free, my hubby would be happy.
So today it is my mission. You are my witness. I will post another picture tomorrow, and the desk WILL NOT look like it does now. It will be pristine, organized, and you will be able to tell that it is, indeed, made of wood.
Did you see the picture on the desk? The one of Jachin and Zoe… from, like, five years ago? Take a closer look:
Yeah, they don’t look like that anymore. But the last time I cleaned off the desk, they did look like that… or nearly.
Tomorrow, people. Meet back here. Maybe I will have uncovered the picture of me riding the mechanical bull (yeah, that picture is in there somewhere…) That alone should be enough to get you back here…

Seriously, the more I read your blog the more I am convinced that we could be best friends. Not only because I am awesome to hang out with (guffaw), but because together we could take over the world with our piles of crap. Think about it…

Heather, I totally feel the same way about you… I told my husband so, but then told him I didn’t how to tell you without sounding like a stalker. I’m so happy that the adoration is mutual!! =)

If you think your desk looks bad, you should definitely NOT look at my hallway counter area thing.
