YES, that is me. I become this "whirlwind" as my hubby calls it when I'm on a mission to tackle the house. I'm serious when I tell you I can bust through a major cleaning in 45minutes ish....its NUTS.
Don't talk to me, don't come near me or I'll bowl you over, don't bring the children near me, don't make eye contact, don't acknowledge I'm here. I have tunnel vision and a MISSION to accomplish.
I was talking with my friend about this and she does the same thing...lol..Her husband calls it when she is in the "ZONE"..its hilarious. It is truely a skill that I LOVE to do.
Another thing that is a fun thing I love that is rather odd....is I TIME myself doing activites to see if I can beat my time. Hi, I'm a little competative...lol..
The one I always DO is called the 5 minute tidy. My kids love this one and you'd be AMAZED what can get done in 5 minutes. I pump them up...set the timer on the microwave and tell them to listen for the beep. We work like mad ladies.....bhahaha!! If only my house was on survailence. I'd be FOR SURE put in the loony bin!
My newest thing I did was time myself getting ready. From shower, pick out clothes, accessories, blow dry, velcro rollers, makeup, and 3 coats of mascara :) it took me only.............
That was not rushing just a normal pace! and I was sipping coffee!
NOT to shabby. If I was rushing I'd say I could knock a good 8 minutes off my time. MMmmmm another competition with myself? ..bahhaha!!

Considering when I was newly married I'd need 1 HOUR to get ready for work. Perfect hair, perfect makeup, perfect nails....GAH! I have NO time for that anymore. :)
Have a fun day! Try the 5 minute tidy...its fun
