I'm done. I've thrown in the towel. And earlier today I made the phone calls...that's right, plural. The phone calls that make all my worries disappear...now you're wondering who I called, aren't you? Let me tell you a little bit about my day first.
There I was, lovingly preparing Little Miss Presley a wholesome breakfast when she starts to whimper. So I rush over, whisk her up from her exersaucer, and plop her on my hip. That's when I feel "IT". No. No no no no no. Oh friggin monkey butt, it is. Yup, definitely poop. The little princess had gone and caused a crime scene on her clothes, the exercauser, herself, and ME. Somehow it had worked its way down her leg and she was doing a friggin river dance to make things worse! 45 minutes, 2 baths, 2 new outfits, and 1 destroyed exersaucer later we were back in business.
So I put her in her highchair and finally start feeding her the now cold breakfast and then it hits me. The dogs!! Where are the dogs? Ok, I see Bruiser, but where on earth is Sampson? Backyard? No. Boys room? No. KITCHEN? LIVING ROOM? OH CRAP!!!
Presley's room. Mmmhhhmm.
Yeah.
Devouring the left overs of the now empty diaper genie. Breathe, Alicia, breathe....
There he was, caught red-handed (or pawed, whatever) looking at me with a chunk of diaper hanging from his mouth. I'm pretty sure I looked like one of those cartoon characters with steam coming out of their ears because let me tell you, I was TICKED!! Fuuuming mad!!
So I clean up yet another disaster and go into the kitchen to wash off, happen to peek at the clock...and WHAT THE FREAK??? It's not even TEN in the flippin MORNING and my house smells like a dang public latrine!! That's when I knew it was going to be a very. very. long day. And that my friends, is when I picked up the phone and called Jordan. I explained to him very calmly that he has a vasectomy scheduled Monday morning because we are never having any more children and that I'm hanging up my bucket and mop and taking a few days off.
Following that call, I called Aleada. Aleada is a gift from above. Aleada is a true bearer of all things happy and lemony fresh scented. Aleada is my awesome housekeeper that I treat myself to now and again. Aleada is coming first thing Wednesday morning. Ahhhhh. Aleada is my favorite.

All hail Aleada! Tomorrow is going to be a great day for you and your house!! LOL at "River Dance"
ReplyDeleteI'm FIRST! Im usually last because I do my commenting late night like a crazy person!
Holy CRAP!!!!!!! Talk about a crappy day (censored!)!
ReplyDeleteSo did you really schedule a vasectomy?
I LOVE house cleaners!!! They make everything better if even for just a few min (till the kids or dogs destroy again).
LOL... sorry about laughing at your miserable day! But I have been there too! I also got my husband a vasectomy appointment "or we'll never have sex ever again"... Worked perfectly!
ReplyDeleteLove a good housekeeper. Could need one every day in my house!
Just stopping by from SITS. Hope your day will be fabulous!
P.S. I'm giving away a subscription to House Beautiful. Interested?

ReplyDeleteJust saying.
oh my my my I hate when that happens and everywhere smells! Wish you are passing a great day today (erm its lunch time Wed here in Malta)
ReplyDeleteWhat a shitty day. Hope today is better.
ReplyDeleteOh Alicia!!! I am so glad you are recovered now...so that I might say I probably won't read anything funnier this entire day. I have had Exersaucer explosion myself..well, my Mom had it when I was out of town but the public latrine comment rang true here too. Have a better day. I will send you a cocktail.
ReplyDeleteOh crap! No seriously...crap!!! I am sorry your day started out like that. At least you have a housekeeper coming...that is like a gift from God!!! :-)
ReplyDeletehousekeeper????????
ReplyDeletesend her over HERE!!!
I have come to believe that exersaucers were made simply to cause poop explosions, I have yet to have a child who hasn't had this happen.
ReplyDeleteI got my husband fixed too!!! If they ever cheat on us....
ReplyDeleteat least the bastards can not breed anymore babies!!!!

Hahaha! Happy house-cleaning day :) Oh...and the vasectomy...great idea. I made my hubs!!!! Now we can GET IT ON without ANY worries at all. WON.DER.FUL
ReplyDeletei may or may not have thrown up a little in my mouth when i came to the part about the diaper eating....OH MY!!! you have a much stronger stomach than i do...i would have lost it...which then thank real goodness for aleada as poor thing would have been scrubbing for days...
ReplyDeleteI totally had that kind of day yesterday...I had a nervous breakdown and blogged in the middle of it...I also sent some hate mail to McDonalds...LOL! My housekeeper is Sonya...I need to give her a call...
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your horrible day...I hope it did get better after that. I am jealous of your Aleada...wish I had one to call ever so often!!
ReplyDeleteNote to self...don't read your blog while eating breakfast. vomit. :)
ReplyDeleteYour dog is nasty! LOL
ReplyDeleteOH my goodness... having a child sounds...
ReplyDeleteinteresting. lol
Oh geez, whatta day!
ReplyDeleteahhh! you need to put warnings on the top of these posts that say "all childless readers, proceed with caution. this post may change your mind about having kids..." or you know, something like that lol
ReplyDeleteSounds like you totally deserve to have Ms. Aleada over.
ReplyDeleteI can not believe your dog would eat that....icky poo!
Oh this was fun to read.. i even imagined you all cartoon-ish and such... hilarious.. tough i bet it wasn't fun by far being in your shoes at the moment! Oh, but cheers to happier days!
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday!
God Bless the women willing to clean our homes for profit! I couldn't do it, but I ammmmmmmmmmm soooooooo glad that they do! Sorry for your explosion and mess that follows. At least he didnt' rub himself in it! My dogs will find roadkill or a dead animal and rub themselves ALL OVER IT! It stinks for days!
ReplyDeleteDon't you hate it when your having a crappy day and you realize that it's not even close to lunch time yet? Hope Aleada is helping make up for yesterday.
ReplyDeleteDating in the Dark: I love they way they stare wide eyed in the dark too. I would totally be the girl who hand gestures even though no one can see me. And....of course I watched More to Love! Totally addicted! It's like a car accident that I can't peel my eyes away from. The guy kinda creeps me out too.
I SO know this kind of day and for that matter I know this kind of morning. I used to have a housekeeper, damn I miss her. I hope that rest of the day got better.
ReplyDeleteMaybe baby has IBS too...she has lots of blow outs! Poor baby.
ReplyDeleteOmagosh. I would have KILLED the dog. That is so gross, why, WHY do they eat poop? Blech. My dogs eat some pretty savory stuff too. Ick.
Macey
Remember my posting about the Cherrio Moments? You're going to miss the poop too!
ReplyDelete☼ Happy Wednesday ☼
That's just nasty. but hilarious. I love and hate crazy days like that. I love them because although at that moment you may being seeing red, I love how after the fact you can look back and laugh. That's what lifes about right?
ReplyDeleteOh.My.Gosh. What a morning!!! I'm so glad you survived! Holy crap. You handled that very well I must say. :)
ReplyDeleteDogs and diapers, yuk.
ReplyDeleteAnd all before ten. So you still got to enjoy Judge Marilyn Milian?
LMAO....okay I don't mean to laugh...but that is hysterical! Only because I can see the dog with that innocent look on his face like "HUH? WHAT?" And you practically running after him with child on hip, screaming!
ReplyDeleteThank God for housekeepers!
What an awful day....I hope it gets better for you!
Oh dear gawd that's disgusting. Poop beats out dead birds any day.
ReplyDeleteCan ya send the housekeeper my way when she's done at your place? Maybe a chef too
Alicia... Just thought I would send you this lovely little link. Maybe you can make some better "non-soggy-milk-bone" bread!!! :D

ReplyDeleteps - am i the ONLY ONE who got fixed instead of my husband? sheesh! he has it soooo easy!
My angel is Monika! Every so often I can't take it anymore and she comes and makes my house fresh again! Sounds like mama needs a bubble bath!! Don't forget the wine! ah ha
ReplyDeleteGee....I don't know whether to laugh or cry. I started out laughing but the thought of it all.....oh god, it brings back such icky memories. I'm sort of giggling and tearing up at the same time.
ReplyDeleteYou know what it is? It's traumatic......motherhood, from the day of birth and all the way through is traumatic.
:-)
Gosh I hope your day has gotten a whole lot better since your posting.
((HUGs))
Dogs and diapers... Oh man. The thrills of being a SAHM. Keep the faith, girl!
ReplyDeletexo,
Christina
I need an Aleada...I've already got a dog like yours.
ReplyDeleteI swear my youngest was a poop machine when she was smaller. It didnt matter where we were she was always getting poop on her and everything else!
ReplyDeleteEveryone needs an Alaeda. Hope she works her magic.
ReplyDeleteExersaucers should seriously have a warning label. They ALWAYS cause explosions like that, yuck! Glad you and your man enjoyed the concert btw! I am just starting to catch up on "my reading".
ReplyDeleteThe doggy has gourmet tastes, huh? Hope y'all get that crime scene cleaned up and smelling fresh as a daisy!
ReplyDeleteJust wait until you start the potty training. I'm excited for my sister and her dogs to get here so that I don't have to pick up poopy from the floor anymore. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, God bless you. How.do.you.do.it?
ReplyDeleteI would have thrown my hands in the air 5 dirty diapers ago. :)

ReplyDeletelove you blog... natalee http://totmama.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteMy dogs think cat shit is a delicacy and eat in freely from the litterbox. And on the rare occassion that I take them out to see my horses, they eat horse shit.
ReplyDeleteoh sweet G...i just threw up in my mouth.
