Keepin it real

Keepin it Real on Tuesdays. 
 Take a picture of one of your rooms (the way it really looks when no one is watching).  Blog about it or post a picture on your Flickr, then link to this post at the bottom linky link.  Lets stop pretending our lives are picture perfect, reality is more fun anyway and we can all share in the fact that we are not super heros we are women with real lives who make awesome stuff but forget to scratch off a few things on the To Do list. 


I woke up today thinking I couldn’t think of what to post for Keepin it Real (my house is pretty clean right now) and then I walk into MY bathroom.  The bathroom which is everyone’s favorite.  Why is it that my bed, my room, my closet, my bathroom is always the best in the house?  Does this happen at your house.


Anyhoo….here it is.  Again, if no further post happen on this blog, then Poppa must have killed me for posting it.  This picture is not only keepin it real but pushing me to get this sink clean again.  Refinishing this sink has been on my to do list forever.  The wall behind it has some strange hole which someone filled with caulk before we lived here and it bothers me to see it but if I fix it then I also have to repaint that wall because this paint is impossible to match.

To cover what is going on in this picture, we have of course half the toothbrushes in our home in this bathroom (my kids have two other bathrooms they could use you know) a pair of woolen socks that need to be hand washed, someone must have been playing cards and left those on my sink along with the screw driver from my installing a new no slam toilet lid. Livie’s shoes and sunglasses.  A hemp tissue, some bum balm, and other usual bathroom accoutrements.




Thank you to all the wonderful ladies who linked up last week (with no notice too : )  I can’t wait to see your reality post this week.

    Um yeah!! I can't live one day without your lotion! It is upside down because I am almost out so time to place an order : )

    I loved this post even before I zoomed in on the lotion bottle upside down on the sink. LOL <3

    Thank you for sharing real life. For us it's ripping up our carpet and putting in tile. we NEED to get to it, but somehow this chore always makes it to the bottom of the to-do list.

    We recently reno'd our only bathroom and put in a granite countertop. Oh I regret that. The water that pools and leaves stains, plus the toothpaste and grime. Ew. I need to clean my bathroom. Thanks for reminding me.

    Very comforting- especially as I actually cleaned mine up yesterday for the first time in way too long 🙂
