Hi folks,

I have an explore as well. He's also a builder. He's done food
coloring, baking soda & vinegar and numerous cardbourd box constructions
(fortunately we have a basement to put them {pile them}). I have a
messy house. Our "rule" is pick some things up before you take out
others. We also will do a ten minute pick up. Of late we've decided
that the parent who is home with our son is in "charge" of making sure
"everything" is picked up before the other one comes home. The actual
bottem line is - enough has to be picked up so you don't trip over it.
All of us our pack rats all well, which came in handy this Yule while
making presents. Instead of buying many things we try and make it -
and usually have what we need at home. With friends with cat allergies
and my own home based business with monthly meetings we are force to
clean (vacumn) at least a couple times a month. LET'S HEAR IT FOR MESSY
CREATIVE HOUSES!
