All In A Hard Days Work


It's nap time at our house and there are things to be done. Floors to mop, dishes to put away, more dishes to put in the dishwasher, laundry to wash, bathrooms to scrub,...etc. Instead I turn on the DVR of the Olympics (because it would be a travesty to miss even one thing) and then I let my daughters entertain themselves with a cup of baby powder and a brush while they put "makeup" on mom. After an hour I'm as white as any respectable Geisha from my eyebrows to my toes. Even the baby bump got a decorative touch. Hopefully soon I'll be back to my normal "anally clean" self. Until then I'll be keep the couch warm. And if you call me, I will probably only answer if one of the kids can find the cordless phone and bring it to me in time before the answering machine goes off.
