There are certain things that drive me to eat more sugar…
…cleaning up a “lake” on the bathroom floor and a
“waterfall” in the basement just happens to be one of those things.
My youngest decided to fill the tub up to the rim
and then proceeded to do some sort of “wave”.
(Apparently this is some sort of pokemon move that
you would use in a battle.)
Water was everywhere from the waves crashing over the side of the tub.
And of course the floor isn’t waterproof so it was gushing
like a waterfall into the storage room.
I have now declared our bathroom to be a battle free zone.
Under no circumstance is there to be a Pokemon fight in our tub again!
Pokemon’s swimming…ok. Pokemon’s battling…not ok!
1 dehumidifier and 10 soggy towels later,
I felt the need to have some sugar.
Sugar is obviously a drug of some sorts
because it can totally calm any irritations in a heartbeat!
Water gushing through my floors…
that’s ok because I have cookies to munch on!!!
Go ahead and bake yourself some
for when the next panic moment happens!
