It's MY turn to clean the bathroom!!

When did cleaning the bathroom become "the fun chore"?  When you have kids, that's when.  After dinner one night I said to my husband Joe, "okay, you watch Simon for a bit, take him for a walk or something, I'm going to clean the bathrooms."    Joe was like, "why don't you take Simon for a walk, it's beautiful out, and I'll clean the bathrooms."

My response?  "NO.  YOU ALWAYS GET THE FUN CHORES."  We both started laughing and I realized that the things I used to not be in love with (scrubbing toilets), I will happily do if it buys me some me time.

You can eat off the floors in my bathroom when I'm finished.  I don't just do the ol' toilet duck swirl, count to 10 and flush, like the old days, (pre-baby)  I get all up in that mother with a toothbrush, girlfriend.   Umma take my sweet.  ass.  time.  Every grout line, every baseboard, every surface.  Cleaned.  Disinfected.  Sparkling. That's how I roll. 

After visiting with a good friend today, she told me that she argues with her husband over who gets to mow the lawn vs. supervise their 2 kids under two.  She will fight that battle to the death because it buys her an hour and a half of me time.  Smart girl.
