That picture doesn't approach how awful it got here. I found it online because I didn't want a photographic record of the mess here. The good news is they've kept about 80% of the food off the floor by the table. I will need to vacuum today though.Are we disciplining your husband? Lol. Not much you can do directly with that, although Love and Logic tactics do work on adults. Have you read the books? If you're disciplining your kid and teaching him/her to clean up that's different. I've got LOTS of ideas for that! Let me know. :) @Writing Mommy: Lol. That picture doesn’t approach how awful it got here.

Drives me crazy. I have to clean up and suffer taunts from my husband: "We live in a slum." Right, that's coz I clean up properly. His idea of cleaning up is dumping stuff into bags, sealing them, and throwing them into hard-to-reach shelves. :-) Oh please, please tell me of some serious disciplinary tactics I can use!
