Clean-O-Meter Tag

First off, I'm going to KILL Adrianne for tagging me on this one. Fortunately, I get to spread the embarrassment. I will tag Angel, Kaycee, Tara, and Mikelene. Ladies, get your cameras out and take a picture of the following things AS IS! Don't clean or move anything, just snap a picture and let us all see how messy or clean you really are! :) Fortunately, I am really good with camera angles...you're not going to have a clear view of my mess. Yes, I am a messy person, I confess...

The sink

Don't let the food gross you out! Honestly, though, the reason there aren't a ton of dishes in the sink is because they're scattered throughout the house. Yes, my kids are slobs. I, personally, do not leave dishes around. Notice the orange bowl. That is my color and it is in the sink...we are color coded. (We all have our own colors so I can spot whose dishes are left out. This gives me the right ammunition when scolding.) :)
The fridge

Yes, it needs purging.

A bathroom I chose Brandon's because his is the cleanest, for sure. He does really well about keeping it decent. Me, on the other hand, not so good. THANK YOU, Brandon, for saving me!
Favorite room This is my cleanest room. Therefore, it got chosen.
A closet This is the clean side of my closet (it happens to be my husband's side)..the other end, not so good. I know I told you I am terrible about throwing my clothes everywhere. ..Now my hubby is saving me. :)

Laundry room Normally, this room is horrendous. Luckily, I had to wash clothes today because Frankie is leaving in the morning for SC...not too bad.However, I felt I needed to show my hallway overflow because it is packed with clothes. I don't fold clothes or put them up for anyone. Everyone has to come get their own basket. Usually, they are slow about this so my hall stays cluttered. This is a normal look.
Favorite shoes Even though I work at Payless, I am not big on shoes. I do, however, like having my feet warm...so here are my slippers.

Self picture This is me trying to kill myself.
Kids It was VERY difficult rounding them up. Also, this is the last night for them to be together. Frankie leaves for SC in the morning.
Dream vacation This is definitely what I need right now...I am awaiting my Mediterranian Cruise that I will go on for my 20th anniversary...less than 2 yrs away. I plan on seeing Venice, Rome, Barcelona, Greece, others. Can't wait!!!



WARNING: get your house cleaned before you get tagged!

Thanks for the warning. I'll get my house cleaned in case I get tagged. It's great that you got an extra reason to take a picture of all the kids together! That's a great idea about the color coded dishes! And I hope I get to go somewhere fancy like that for my 20th anniversary!

I love your front room! So pretty! I don't know if I have the guts to photograph things "as is". I would tidy things up first (dishonest? yes. Cowardly? yes. But I can't bring myself to do it any other way).

By the way, I am just DYING thinking that you are going on a Mediterranean cruise! I've wanted to go to Europe my entire life! What a fun thing to plan for!!!
