From the Outside Looking In

Today I chatted with one of best girl friends, Carrie, while on my way home from work (hands free of course) and we were talking about how Facebook, blogs etc. make everyone look so good because no one wants to really show their messes. It all just looks perfect from the outside looking in.
I shared with Carrie that from the outside looking in she is a put together (she wears the cutest hats every winter) mother of two with a fabulously supportive husband living in her dream house. She laughed...apparently her little one had spit up on her missing the burp rag entirely and she was still wearing her sweats hoping to get a shower today. (I bet her sweats aren't really sweats like my sweats but cute yoga pants with a stylish top.)
She shared with me that from the outside looking in I am a working mother of two who has the perfect balance. I almost died laughing...then I shared with her that while I was walking into a clean living room the couch was covered and I mean covered with clean laundry ready to be folded. I was hoping to get it all folded before I headed off to girl's night (we're having fondue!) but I don't think I will. So I will leave the house with a couch still covered in laundry, but just in case anyone asks my living room is clean.
Here's my couch in all it's laundry glory!
