Have you ever stepped back into something and made a mess?

A couple minutes ago, I decided to get up and clean
the bathroom floor. I'd been posting on MyLot
for a little while and battling insomnia.
I had collected a nice little pile of dirt and debris
on the floor and was neatly putting it into a pile.
Then I turned around to get the rest of the floor cleaned and
sanitized and accidentally stepped back into my pile of stuff.
Then I tracked it everywhere and had to spend an additional five
minutes getting things cleaned up!
Has that ever happened to you? Have you ever stepped
back into a pile of something and made a mess?

it's usually not me that messes the pile up-it's one of the cats.a neatly swept pile seems to draw them like a magnet.they're even worse when i try to mop it

Cats and messes do go together!
I wonder why that is so.
My little kitten is always making
a nuisance of herself while I am
trying to clean.

Yes that just happened to me when I got done sweeping the kitchen floor.And I went to empty the dirt into the garbage can.I missed it and the dirt fell onto the floor again.It has been a crazy cleaning day at my house.Happy cleaning day Beauty.

Thanks! You too, Christie.
My spouse is off for the next
few days, so I plan on catching up
on my cleaning.
The kitchen and living room floor need
to be scrubbed as they are both
stone tile floors.
I have been sweeping and vacuuming
daily, but the grime is overtaking me!

I'e done that before. I have a bad habit of putting drinks and things on the floor beside me when there is no table, and spilling the dang things when I try to stand up, because my clumsy feet point slightly sideways instead of forward.

My kids are usually the ones that step in my dirt pile when I am sweeping up the floor. One of the two will without fail go running through the kitchen while I am sweeping up and track it everywhere. Either that of my son will send he cat who is scared for his life(he hates my son) running through the pile.
