I was making meatloaf today, and we were all excited about it because it was pepper jack meatloaf and it is SOOO good. It was taking forever to cook. I was going back and forth between checking on the food and rocking baby B who had 4 shots today. It was finally done. I started taking it out of the oven... mmm... it smells sooo good..... BAM! While I was taking the meatloaf out of the oven, I dropped it on the floor. Glass flew everywhere. I'm not sure what happened. I stood there, looking at the meatloaf, the cheese oozing out onto the floor. Time had stopped. My beautiful, cheesy, yummy meatloaf. Well, I decided there was nothing I could do. I couldn't eat around the glass and dog hair. So, my husband ordered pizza. I started cleaning up. Sweeping up the glass. Bye, bye meatloaf. I had to wash the floor since it was all greasy. Hubbby was ordering pizza. Baby B was crying. I grabbed the swiffer mop and mopped the whole floor, feeling ambitious. As I walked around on the newly washed floor, I realized that it felt like I was walking on ice. I figured it was because it was wet, but after awhile of slipping and slidding all over, I realized that I didn't wash the floor. I had only smeared the grease all over from wall to wall. Oh bother. Baby B is STILL crying. Get out the bucket and mop. Try again. This time use Murphy's Oil. Ah. Much better. (This was no where near the mess I made when I made "the cake"). Pick up baby. Rock baby. Watch family eat salads. Hear tummy rumble. So after Baby B settled down and fell into a semi-sleep, I sat down in my lazy boy to eat my salad. I was eating with my left hand, trying to keep rocking/bouncing so that Baby B would stay asleep. Boy, am I talented. heheh....
