The kids are 1/2 naked. The bills are due.
I have reams of paper work to get to.
Dirty clothes and dishes piled all around.
I have glazing to do for the weekend sale.
It's not even 9am the war cry booms I'm bored!
The muskeeters 3 are jumping on the bed.
I have a bisque to unload.
Mr. 4 's in swim trunks.
Inside out of course.
Carving and painting at a harried pace.
A laugh breaks out at the loooonnng legged centipede!
That's disgusting states miss 7.
Throw it outside. Set it free!
No! Let's keep it for a pet!
Great something else to feed!
Let's get chickens too! (I hear banty's are good mothers)
Somebody has to be
Mr. 10 states, "I on a mission!"
Write when you find work.
Take a deep breath set up the sprayer.
Close my eyes say a prayer.

I can't think of anything I'ld rather be!

Love to you all, Kathie
