new pets

for a year the girls have been asking for a pet rat and i have been putting it off and putting it off. honestly, i struggle so hard to keep up with the housework and over the years my standard of cleanliness has drastically dropped to almost disgusting at times. i just can't work full time and run two camp fire groups and keep a spotless house as well, just can't do it. not to mention i am sick of house cleaning, not rewarding when five minutes after the house is clean someone messes it up again... anyways! the thought of rats and all that comes with them made me cringe. i love animals and pets are important but the MESS! ugh! so finally i agreed that if the girls showed me some real effort in keeping their rooms clean and to help with other chores to lesson the work i have to do, i would THINK about it. i was surprised that for months on end, the "we might get a rat if you keep your room clean" actually worked...
