So Banshee and Entropy got home from school today and after doing their homework were sent upstairs to clean up their rooms. (That's what's on the weekly activity schedule for Wednesdays in the Schmuckalooski household.) I guess I should have know that something was going on by how quiet they were - as any parent can tell you quiet is generally a harbinger of doom - or at least a sign that your little miracles (technical term) are up to something. So anyway, I go upstairs to find out that Entropy has peed in a cup in her room - just to see if she could - and then spilled it on the carpet.
Banshee then decided to clean it up with baby wipes and epsom salt. There was epsom salt everywhere in their rooms. It was a mess. Fortunately the builders of our house used high quality carpet (i.e. they scotchguarded the hell out of it) and I was able to clean up the pee pretty easily. The salt I will probably be vacuuming up for a week.
You can't make this stuff up.
Thanks for reading,
A bewildered Schmuckalooski.
