Sweet Desperation

Have you ever cleaned out of desperation, in a way you wouldn't normally? I am guilty - today, I was determined to vacuum the carpets and vacuum and mop the kitchen. And I had to get it all done while Lilah was napping. You never know if her nap will be 45 mins or 2 hours. This project takes almost 2 hours, so hoping it would be that long, I had to hurry. With Olivia's mess on the floor, I decided I didn't have time to pick it all up (for already the 2nd time today), so, out of desperation, I vacuumed the carpets by weaving in and out and pushing the stuff around with the vacuum. I never thought I'd do such a thing. Only when you're a mom, do you resort to "desperate times call for desperate measures" mentality... or is it- reality..? Proof of this is pictured below, when you roll over a Valentines sticker and it sticks to the wheel:
