Cleaning the Witch's Cottage

Happy Birthday, Chilly!

Chilly is 41 today! As you may remember from my LONG post on Tuesday, Chilly was in the hospital on his birthday last year for a triple bypass. In honor of his one year Heartaversary and 41st Birthday, the kids and I would like to present Chilly with a cake!

Enjoy, Chilly! I knew you'd love it! (Excuse me while I go throw up...) Thank you, Cake Wrecks! Don't worry, Chilly! We have your "real" cake waiting at home! (Didn't have time to book the strippers you requested...sorry!)

Well, it's been 65 days since I began my journey into the land of Blog! It's also been 65 days since I've cleaned my house, fed my kids, done the laundry, took a shower...you get the picture. (not really...but it looks and smells that way; yuck!)

Today we are cleaning the witch's cottage. We have to get everything ship shape for Chilly's birthday party this evening. Hopefully, I will not suffer too terribly from blogger withdrawal. (Please pray for me. I'll try to keep my twitches to a minimum especially since I hate cleaning as deeply as I love blogging...)

(Oh Sarcasm, dear sweet friend, must you show yourself in my blog on Chilly's birthday? Now scooty on out of here!)

Normally I just wiggle my nose and snap my fingers to have a clean and tidy cottage. Alas, today it's not to be. My alter ego, Samantha Stevens is hiding deep in the recesses of my subconscious. No amount of bribery seems to summon that crazy witch! I guess I'm on my own...flapdoodle and blatherskite as dear old Aunt Clara would say!

Cat and I have gathered our potions, brooms, magic vac and spell book. We're going to try a little conjuring of our own. With a little luck, we may just end up with a sparkling clean house that doesn't smell like a dumpster!

(Our little broom better not be bossy today! He can get out of control barking out his sweeping orders!)

Hopefully, we'll finish early so I can enjoy a little quality "me" time before Chilly gets home. I just got this new book that is calling my name. Here...I'll share a little with you... (Dad, you may want to turn from the computer at this point...just sayin'...)

Here's a page from inside...are you ready? I can just feel your excitement...

In case you can't read the page, it says..."As soon as I finish the laundry, I'll do the grocery shopping. And I'll take the kids with me so you can relax."

Now that's HOT! Hunky hotties that clean and help with the kids? That's my kind of porn, baby! And this page is just a taste! I think I'll read it while wearing my apron, rubber gloves and slipper genies. I'll fan myself with my pink feather duster. I'm getting all tingly just thinkin' about it!

How are you spending your Thursday?
