I totally understand you. I literally have pictures of my freshly-made bed saved on my phone because I like to look at them when I'm stressed out. It helps me get through the day.
I'm sorry about what happened though. I'm sure that if it was the kids, they were only playing and didn't mean to cause you such grief, but I totally understand your frustration. I'd be pretty ticked off too.
