MY version

I liked this post from "4 Little Men and Girly Twins" and decided to copy it and make my alterations. Brittany's (from 4 L.M.&G.T) is in black. MY revisions are in YELLOW

my bathrooms sparkle, except after boys use it

MY bathroom sparkles, except when the kids use it or when I'm running late and my hairdryer falls to the floor and stays there for days with everyone walking over it

I make a nutritious meal every night, except when we eat out

I make a nutritious meal every night, except when we eat out or I am too exhausted by the stress of my job to cook right, or my 4 month old needs to eat - in which case I throw the first frozen meal I can in the oven...yum nutritious

my children are not loud, except when they raise their voices

MY children are not loud, except when they are trying to talk over each other, or (in the case of my 7 year old) cannot control the volume of their voice

the dishes are always clean, except when we use them

MY dishes are always clean, except when the dishwasher is full with clean dishes and I would rather pile them up by the side of the sink then take 5 minutes to unload the dishwasher and put the dirty ones in

my children don't eat sugar, except when we have treats

MY children don't eat sugar, except when we have treats or I give into their whining and let them have those disgusting baby bottle pops or one of the grandparents decides to spoil them and I think it would be too much of an argument to explain why they can't have the candy, so I just give in

we always use cloth diapers, except when we use disposables

All I can say here is cloth diapers - YEAH RIGHT!

my children cloths always match, except when they don't

MY children always match, except when they have tried for several times to find an outfit that matches and I finally give in because they just don't get it. OR when daddy dresses them ;)

my children always go to bed on time, except when they stay up late

MY children always go to bed on time, except for when I'm busy doing something and they ask to fall asleep on the couch and I'm just enough of a push over that I let them.

I never say anything wrong, except when I misspeak

I never say anything wrong, except when my emotions get the best of me and I lose control of my mouth

I am never stressed, except when I have too much to do

I am never stressed, except when I'm awake

I am put together everyday, except when I don't take a shower

I am put together everyday, except when I have to stay up all night with a teething 4 month old and when 5:30 am rolls around I decide that putting on make up is just too much of a hassle

my hair looks perfect, except when I have a bad hair day

MY hair looks perfect everyday, except when my baby spits up in it

my windows are clean, except when little fingers touch them

CLEAN WINDOWS???

I always finish my to-do list each day, except when I don't get it done

I always finish my to-do list each day, except when I don't, in which I just turn the page and make my to do list for the next day and repeat the same item. I continue doing this until I realize that the item I originally wanted to just just won't get done and then I will drop it off my to do list all together.
