Back to Reality

Vacation's over. You've been home for a week and it's time to stop dreaming . . .


You, sir, are not a wealthy jetsetter . . .


And you, ma'am, are not a swimsuit model. Good grief . . .


You are the parents of four ill-behaved children
who need to be fed, clothed, and taught some manners . . .


and the future rakers of approximately 1.8 million leaves
that soon will be falling from these trees
directly into your yard . . .


and the owners of this closet,
which is not going to clean out,
patch, paint, and rebuild itself.
Get to work!


Sigh.




Dinner last night: chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, corn on the cob

What a funny post!!!! It's hard to get back in the swing of things after a vacation, isn't it?

It's been soooo hard coming back from Hawaii, because summer is ENDING here. What am I supposed to do with my tan and cute summer outfits and sunglasses?!
