Yes, my pets totally belong in pet food commercials. They are nuts. That dog that was buddies with my cat got hit by a car.

He slipped his collar after I had him shaved for the summer last year (didn't think, duh, his collar would be looser after being shaved

), and let him out on a long leash on the patio and when I looked out, he was gone.

Anyway, that's waaaayyyy OT.

You know, that is a really good point about where you are being tough - I remember before children when I worked full time I thought there weren't enough hours in the day, and actually, my house was dirtier then!

No crawling baby to motivate me to clean. Now, I have learned the true meaning of "not enough hours in the day."

I am getting out from under my laundry before vacation. And Heymommy, I totally understand the self-loathing...it's like our female ID is wrapped up in how we keep our homes, the way it is for men and their jobs.
