trying my hardest to prioritize

I am the kind of person who thoroughly enjoys cleaning my home. There is nothing more satisfying than the smell of pine sol and a floor that you can see your reflection in. But with three very busy children, meals to make and a tiny house that seems to generate a mess all its own every 5 seconds around the clock, Cleaning the house top to bottom never seems to happen for me. I start in the kitchen most every day. Doing up last nights dishes, wiping down counters, then i go off on a bunny trail, I look in the fridge for the apple juice and before you know it i have all items removed and am scrubbing spilled casserole off the bottom shelf. From there I proceed to organize and rearrange cabinets, and properly nest all of my pots and pans together neatly. Before i know it the kitchen is gleaming, but the laundry is almost touching the ceiling, the children are completely covered in what ever they ate for lunch and the clock is telling me its time to "Mess" up my shining kitchen and prepare dinner. I wish that i could get to a point in life where my daily chores were simple, clean this, wash that, vacuum, breakfast, lunch, dinner, DONE! Why is it that my chores never ever seem to get accomplished to my satisfaction.... Is this the plight of every home making mommy? Or do i just have the most severe case of adult A.D.D ever known to a woman. I just don't get it. Really. I am puzzled. any way that's my rant for the day :)
