My Life, Right This Moment

Oh look! it's my 200th post!

Jenny and I traded memes, so here is my life, right this moment.

The rules are, take the picture--no fussing, no fixing it up--just a snapshot of your life, today, as is.

1) The kitchen sink:
Typical middle-of-the-day mess with dishes from lunch and snacks.


2) The inside of the fridge:
I think it's funny that we have more salad dressings than anything else when I'm the salad-eater and I only use one.


3) Your shoes:
The two I use the most frequently. I never wear shoes in the house, though.


4) Your closet:
Ok, so a lot of my excuses about cleanliness run out, here.


5) The laundry pile:
These are clean, actually. I washed them about three hours ago and only haven't folded them yet because I (and the kids) needed a shower from the 4-7 sweaty trips up the hill, in the heat and humidity, needed to get them clean.


6) What the kids are doing:
Joseph is out for his nap.


Elena was helping me take pictures for this. Just as I finished taking pictures, she decided she wanted to go outside with her "butterfly net."


7) Your favorite room:
The entry may or may not be a room, but it is my current favorite space. The pictures are fabulous, the keys are findable, you always know what time it is, there's a serious lack of mess, and there's no furniture that makes my back hurt worse than it did before I sat/laid down. The wood you see is what will become Elena's bed.


8) Your toilet:
Is this a check to see if I've scrubbed it recently? I can't think of any other reason someone would want to see this.


9) Fantasy vacation:
Spain, preferably with just my husband, though it'd be fun to take the kids, too.


10) Self-portrait:
Me! Freshly showered but glasses-less, in all my pregnant glory.

Since I have a weird curiosity, I'll tag Regan-at-work--closet can be desk drawers, kids can be the students, laundry can be... something. Tags go to Marin, too.

You look so cutely pregnant! How much longer do you have to go?

Marin said...

I refused to do this when it was on Jenny's blog, and I'm probably refusing to do it here too... so you can just picture a perfectly clean house w/ a perfectly coifed marin & sariah and I'm sure that'll be pretty close to the truth... ;)

Apparently Susan and I think alike, because this was the comment I had in my mind to leave when I clicked on comments:

You're such a cute pregnant lady! When's your due date?
