Clean? Why Bother?

I have been cleaning (I am talking DEEP cleaning, not just picking up,) as we are having a ton of company this weekend.

I figured the best way to do this was go room to room. That way, I was working from the front to back and if I didn't have time to get to my bedroom (where everything will eventually end up,) oh well.

Well do you think anyone would understand that?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

As soon as I would get to the next room, Tyler or Shawn or the dogs or the friends would destroy the one I just finished cleaning. I think it looked better before I started to clean. And as I am frantically running around re-cleaning, where do you think my wonderful husband is? Is he helping me? NOOOOOOOOOOOO.

He is outside, washing his truck, since he doesn't want it to be a mess for when our friends get here. I can't quite understand that logic.

They won't be sleeping in the truck. They won't be eating in the truck. And they sure won't be hanging out in the 90 plus degree weather in the truck. So what gives? If anyone can explain, I sure would appreciate it.

Well gotta run, have 3 more rooms to finish.

I know just how you feel! I have been spending all day cleaning, and my kids (4, 2 1/2, and 9 months) seem to think that it is their duty to make sure that they maintain the status quo despite my best efforts! Heaven forbid I sweep the kitchen floor and expect it to stay clean until dinner time...what ever would the ants eat?
