I pick and arrange all my own flowers, Jerry!
Already done: Get woken up by DD#1 calling out for Daddy - only Daddy has gone to work. Crawl out of bed. Get told Daddy has gone to work by DD#2 - everybody up and has breakfast. Look at the millions of dishes on the kitchen bench - I did baking yesterday and last night's dinner dishes are still waiting to be cleaned. Start doing dishes. Get depressed. Do as many as I can do before running out of space and throw in the towel (quite literally). Give up. Children fighting and wanting to watch TV. I yell at children. To do: Haircut for girls Groceries. Sort out everything for back to school tomorrow. Hide from children.
