The day so far...............

Child 3, Mr so full of beans burst into our room 20 mins before the alarm was 

due to go off. Not a happy mummy!


Then operating on auto pilot popped kettle on, like I do each morning and the 

power went out.


It took a good few minutes to realise this as I was still in zombie mode, and I 

was getting school bags packed.


So I waited a bit and then decided to brave the front yard in my dressing gown 

to check the fuse box. Yeap sure enough the trip had gone, so I flicked it back 

on. 

In my positive thinking mode, or just my need for a hot cup of tea, It tried 

again. Power went off again. So back outside I went.


Then I decided it might not be the kettle, it might be the power point, so I

 plugged the kettle into another power point................Nope, it was the 

kettle. So in the bin it went!


With two cats under foot, with no care or concern for the fact that I have not

had a cup of tea yet, just the fact that their bowls were empty.I opened a can

of cat food, and sliced my finger on the can. Not that the cats cared one bit.


After dropping the boys to school, I headed off to buy a new CHEAP, not

spending money on brand names any more, kettle. I went to Kmart, my old 

store and ended up chatting with a few girls I use to work with which was 

lovely. My cheap kettle, turned into some T-shirts, 3/4 pants, work pants for 

hubby, and some Christmas socking fillers for the boys.


Having consumed a large 2&5 Boost juice with ginger for breakfast, well I

didn't get a cuppa, by the time I got home, my bladder was bursting. In my

hurry to get inside, I then cut my foot on the screen door.


So I think it is best for me to stay inside for the rest of the day, and try to 

keep out of trouble. I hope you are having a safer day.


Now for a funny to make you smile.

Life is too short NOT to laugh

A man came home from work and found his 5 children outside, still in their pajamas, playing in the mud, with empty food boxes and wrappers strewn around garden, The door of his wife's car was open, as was the front door to the house and no sign of the dog, walking in the door, he found ...an even bigger mess. A lamp had been knocked over, the throw rug was against one wall, In the front room the T

V was on loudly with the cartoon channel, the family room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing. In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, breakfast food was spilled on the counter, the fridge door was open wide, dog food was spilled on the floor, a broken glass lay under the table, and a small pile of sand was spread by the back door. He quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and more piles of clothes, looking for his wife. He was worried she might be ill, or that something serious had happened. He was met with a small trickle of water as it made its way out the bathroom door. As he peered inside he found wet towels, scummy soap and more toys strewn over the floor. Miles of toilet paper lay in a heap and toothpaste had been smeared over the mirror and walls. As he rushed to the bedroom, he found his wife still curled up in the bed in her pajamas, reading a novel... She looked up at him, smiled and asked how his day went. He looked at her bewildered and asked, 'What happened here today?' She again smiled and answered, 'You know every day when you come home from work and you ask me what in the world do I do all day?...
''Yes," was his incredulous reply..
She answered, 'Well, today I didn't do it.'
