My Addiction...

Ok I recently wrote about my 3 addictions. Well one is running my life and my house is a disaster because of it. The Olympics. Oh how I will have my hand full of things to do once the Olympics are over. Today I came to the realization that my house is falling apart, due to the fact that I sit on my ass every night watching the Olympics, then I go and get in bed and turn the TV on and watch more...I have fallen asleep to the Olympics every night since opening ceremonies...

I keep telling myself...they are only on every 4 years!!

And what made me realize that my house is going to crap. Charley was playing on her gym mat thingy today while I went to go and feed the dogs...well she is starting to move and wiggle herself all over the place...well she wiggled herself off of the mat...and onto the carpet and when she gets tired of holding herself up on her arms, like in the photo below...she will lay her face down on the floor...on her mat, no big deal...on a floor that has been neglected of vacuuming for the last week...in a house where we have 3 shedding dogs...NOT GOOD. I went over and picked her up after I gave the dogs their dinner...and she had a face full of dog hair stuck in her drool. I am a terrible mother...

and it is all the Olympics fault. Though I love them dearly, my life, the dogs, my husband and daughter will all be a lot happier and cleaner when they are over. Oh and the fish are swimming through muck...their tank needs a major cleaning...but not for another 7 days...

Got to go! The commercial is over and the Olympics are back on!! :)

Oh I hear you on the Olympics! I can't stop watching either. Last night I was up watching it until 12:15am, and I didn't want to stop but I was DEAD tired, so I recorded the ending. It was the womens overall gymnastics, and it was getting really good. This morning I watched it and cried when the two American girls got the gold and silver, ofcourse I blame that on my hormones. Hahaha.
