Smells like...

I went out this afternoon to run some errands with the boys and picked up one of those scented oil refills. When we returned home, Shaun stayed outside to play and I put Ian in the playroom while I unpacked the bags. Well, wouldn't you know it, at the very same moment as Ian fell backwards into a bin of toys and Shaun called me to help him from outside, I dropped the damn thing and it smashed into 856 (yes, that exact amount) tiny shards of razor sharp glass all over the kitchen floor. And the oil splattered everywhere too.

Thank goodness Ian isn't crawling yet because after spending a brief moment cussing, I was able to quickly console him then run outside to help Shaun while leaving the glass all over the kitchen. When I came back inside I foolishly used a damp dishrag to mop up the oil. Now the dishrag and the laundry room and my hands reek. Scented oil is nice in small puffs, not when it's all over your hands and permeating everything. Next time I'll use paper towel, since that's what we buy the stuff for. See how cheap I am? My first thought was to wipe up scented oil with something reusable. What was I thinking???

In the meantime the house smells like Morning Rain, according to Febreeze Air Effects. I think it smells like Too Much Air Freshener.
