While "try and try again" is supposed to be a motivational saying I find that with infant twins and a messy husband it is more demotivating. For you see, it is my husbands job to organize and throw away the mail because he is worried (rightfully so) that I will throw away the important mail by accident. Well, sometimes he takes so long to do this task that it ends up cluttering up the entire table so this week I decided I would try to be clever so I stacked all of the mail in Erik's computer chair. Regretfully this did not work and instead I came downstairs to find that the mess had been moved to the floor all around Erik's desk. Touche husband of mine.
Well this created another problem, the twins are much more mobile now and for some reason think that mail is the most delicious, most fun toy they have ever encountered. I would constantly take the twins and put them to the far end of the room just to find that they had made it all the way back to the mail in the two seconds I was fetching them a new diaper. So I decided to try my clever tactic once more but found, yet again, that the mail was on the floor by the end of the night. While I am always trying new and clever ways to get the husband to clean the mail it seems the husband is always trying to feed it to the babies and the babies are more than willing to participate in his schemes. Thus why "try and try again" can be demotivating when your husband is trying and trying again to feed mail to the babies. Unfortinutly this made me realize that the mail is probably just safer in its original place atop my table. Any other women out there feel my pain?
