30 Reasons This Mom Needs to Rip Up the Carpeting!

Hello! I am 30 something mother of three and lover of beauty. I grew up on nothing and in a state of chaos (8 siblings, homeschooled, horders...) I've dreamed of my own beautiful and peaceful home ever since I was a little girl. I'm currently living in an average, warm and comfy home with my wonderful husband and sweet little ones. We are lucky to have a roof over our heads and we are slowly working on our home improvement projects, however, for some reason there never seems to be room in the budget for flooring! This year we have to stretch for the roof, it's a mess and simply has to be replaced. As much as I'm grateful for a non-leaky roof, I'm slightly devestated that the floor can't be a priority. Let me explain...


I have three little kids age 6, 4 and 1, I also have light beige carpeting throughout the house. The dining room is by far the worst hit area but I have scrubbed up:

chili


spaghetti


raw egg


mud


poop


toothpaste


lotion


several pounds of flour


marker


permanent marker


two full glass of red wine


coffee


scrambled eggs


avocado


syrup


chocolate milk


melted cheese


dark brown poster paint


pee


a broken bronzer compact


elmers glue


glitter


butter


potting soil


brownies


more than my weight of sticky rice


worcestershire sauce


barf


jam


smoothie


Please, for the love of all things holy, toss me a buck or two to rip up the grossness that is my current carpeting and put down something easier to clean!!!!! I will be sharing updates of all the latest cleaning jobs and eventually, I hope,  pictures of some easier to clean (forget beautiful!) flooring. Many thanks for reading this far ;-)
