The kids were not very entertained with the video, and decided to go play with the markers in the kitchen. Well,... they did manage to keep the markers in the kitchen (the only place i allow them to color.) However, they made a mess on the floor, and then decided to clean it up themselves, using cups of water and all the hand and body soap from the bathroom, and 1/2 the bottle of dish soap. *sigh* By the time i finished with the program and checked on them, they were skating through a pool of soap and water run through with bleeding marker colors stretching from one end of my kitchen floor to the other.
I tossed the munchkins in the tub, and chose to tackle the kitchen myself. The negatives: i'm out 1/2 a bottle of dish soap and i can hear my septic system yelling at me for all the soap and water dumped down it. The positives: The mess stayed in the kitchen (the easiest room to clean), I've got a VERY clean kitchen floor, and 2 marvelously clean and happy kids (they LOVE baths!)

Another positive... your friends are dying of laughter picturing your two little ones skating on the soapy kitchen floor! It's a lot funnier when you are not the one that has to clean up the mess.
Hope you feel better soon!
Ohhhh.... my sympathies. Sounds like you handled it well!
