Photo Friday time again. Where are the weeks going? I feel like it should be retitled Photo Month for me as I only participate that often. Here goes October's submission!

He smells like rotten fish and stale doritoes half the time, but he was worth every penny.

I've been horrible about participating in Photo Friday. All of my creativity has been zapped from arranging furniture and emptying moving boxes. This week I managed to post a photo!

Last week Cakes came home from preschool and wandered around the house for a bit while I was in the kitchen. I heard her yell for me, in an oddly happy voice.

"Maaaa-meee!"

"Whaaaaat?" I yelled down the hall.

She came around the corner with a huge smile on her face and said "Your room looks SO pretty!"

I put down the sponge and headed towards my room with her in tow. What the hell could she mean? My room was one day shy of a national disaster. We had accepted a contract on our house a week earlier and I was on strike. Laundry lay everywhere. Books were scattered about. Nothing was where it belonged.

I walked into my room to find it exactly as I remembered it. So messy I wouldn't let a blind person in. Not because I was afraid they would trip. No. More like I was afraid they might miraculously regain their sight when they were in my room and they would be so taken aback by the eyesore, it would blind them all over again.

"Doesn't it look bee-yoo-ti-ful, Mom?"

"Hmmm" I stammered as I looked around.

She stood next to my nightstand, averting her sparkly eyes to the side, silently urging me to look.

There on top of a sweater that didn't belong on a nightstand sat one cardboard and pipe cleaner flower made at preschool that day.

I have to admit, it was a nice touch.

"You're right, Cakes. Mommy's room does look pretty!'

Now I just have to convince her to make me a couple more flowers, one for the bathroom and one for the kitchen.

Photo Friday theme this week is "Organized". I didn't have the heart to submit that photo, so I chose two different ones, from outside the house.

Seems like I only get around to participating in Photo Friday when I leave my house for something other than a trip to the grocery store or swim lessons.

Which is about once a month. Today we took the kids to the ballet so it gave me something to photograph. As you can see, I was more interested in the architecture than the dancing.

I really wish I could be more dedicated and structured about getting photos submitted.

Photo Friday time again.

If anyone wants some fresh lemons, let me know.

I am having nightmares about them taking over our home.
