I found some old college pictures last week.
Specifically, I found some pictures of my freshman dorm room.
More specifically, I realized that I cannot blame my messy house on my kids.
Nope – it looks like I’m going to have to take full responsibility.
Even my roommate’s teddy bear couldn’t take anymore…
Mark your Calendar!
The Messiest House on the Internet competition starts on Monday, February 11th. I’ll be narrowing down all messy house pictures to the “sweet 16″ – and we’ll be voting bracket-style the entire week.
Stay tuned for more details.
And in the meantime – you can see more messy house pictures right here.
(And submit your own messy house pictures here.)
Yup, I was just as messy as you, but I didn’t take pictures to incriminate me. So no pictures, means no evidence. In the end, what you can’t see, didn’t exist. Meaning I will never tell my kids, lol

Holy crap! There were two of you living there? Ummmm, where are your beds?
And you actually had a roommate who stayed with that? Did y’all take turns jumping into the laundry pile??!!
This is hilarious!

Too funny! I guess you can say you’ve actually LIVED the “messy house”!
(BTW..my daughters think you are awesome!!!)
I took a picture of mine, too. Mostly the clothes oozing out of the closet and taking over the room.
I was actually a super clean semi-neat freak in college! My dorm room was always spotless. Then I married a messy man, then I had a kid, now I have another on the way. Needless to say, I don’t have tons of time to clean and even when I try, there’s no way I can keep up with the constant tornado. Oh yeah, and three dogs don’t help either.

Ok, I take back what I said about the messy room. I could not have lived with you. I can’t stand stuff all of the floor and bureaus that have drawers oozing things. Sorry, the deal is off. I do love seeing your small TV and how you probably thought it was so awesome to have a tv in your room back then!! I know I was thrilled when my roommate brought a tv!

This really cheered me up! Just having a losing day in the mommy war but the way you can laugh at yourself makes me want to loosen up and laugh, too! Plus your dorm looks a lot like my bedroom right now.
Hi! This is kind of a weird comment, but the bear in that picture is the same one I have, and I’ve been trying to find out what brand he is. Do you possibly know his brand or could you see if your old roommate does? The tag on my bear has completely worn off. It would mean a lot, even though it’s a weird request! I’ve included the link to pictures of my Bear just because I thought it was funny that I found it:
