Okay. First off, I am very thankful for my sons. I am very thankful that they are with me. I am glad that I have them each and every day. Yes. This is true. I also know that we are not to be complainers. It is commanded, “Do all things without arguing and complaining …” We are not to be whiners. It is ungodly. BUT then we are also to speak the truth in love. We are to bear one another’s burdens. So, hoping that this doesn’t sound like complaining, and in the vein of speaking truth and allowing others to bear my burdens (sorry readers) I have to share this. AAARGH! What in the world can I do with my boys’ bathroom!
We have two bathrooms that are back to back so that the pipes are shared. These are the typical very small bathrooms with the sink right beside the toilet, right next to the tub and there is no room to do anything other than what is required. Even then it is tight operating quarters! I know that they don’t have a lot of room to maneuver. The constant state this bathroom is in, though, is going to drive me crazy! I just have to let it out. What in the world? What in the world?!
There are four towels-four boys-four towels. Can we please hang them up? I have a towel rack for two of them, and the shower curtain works nicely for the other two. Their bathroom is the bathroom that guests use so I am constantly going in there to check on the condition of this room; and I am forever NOT HAPPY! There is often NO towels to be found (they are usually on bedroom floors). After I go searching for the towels, I commence the clean up.
What in the world is there to clean up? Well, let me tell you. I know you are riveted at this point! I have two who are almost daily shavers now. Often the shaving cream is left out on the sink. The razors can be found in a variety of places, except in the medicine cabinet or the vanity cupboard where they belong. I also have three teens with active acne issues. There are a variety of acne treatments strewn almost anywhere, from the sink to the shelf above the toilet to the shelf on the medicine cabinet, to the floor.
