CLEANING DISASTER

OK- about a week ago I was walking up my stairs to where the bedrooms are and noticed powder on the base board...so I knelt down closer and noticed it on the steps...it was baby powder??? hmmm...then I see it in on the base board upstairs and on toys, clothes, doors..you name it there is powder sprinkled everywhere!! So I find my #1 suspect Hallie Marie. I ask her if she knows anything about this she looks at me with a "blank" stare. I ask again..she says "well I kind of thought it needed to smell better up here after Addison pooped her pants"!!! I said"so you dumped a WHOLE CONTAINER of baby powder on the floor?? I said next time ask for some air freshener! That brings me to Tuesday this week. I keep smelling this carpet freshener...but not sure why?? I was drying Addison up from her tub and noticed that there was a grainy substance on the edge of the tile so I investigate further...to find Hallie once again has DOWSED the upstairs with CARPET FRESHENER instead of baby powder..the baby powder was not nearly as over powering...So we had a little chat again about not using things on the carpet!! Grrrr. Then Wednesday comes and Hallie was being my cleaning buddy. She did a great job dusting,cleaning windows and picking up toys... But she was missing for awhile so I went to find her (all I had to do was follow the smell of "clean cotton air freshener") HOLY SMOKES that stuff does not smell good when the entire bottle is sprayed into the air!! She also used it as a moping solution on my tile floor in the bathroom!!!!!!!!!! Wow! Needless to say she was in BIG trouble. She will not be using any cleaner,powder or air freshener of any sorts FOR A VERY LONG TIME!
