| It all started this morning when I made breakfast for the cranky youngsters. |  | |
| And fed the baby a bottle. |  | |
| She dribbled milk all over herself and my new blouse. |  | |
| I loaded up the kids in the car seat and took them to daycare and school. |  | |
| I was late for work and traffic was a nightmare. |  | |
| I got to the office (I'm a tech analyst). |  | |
| My supervisor chewed me out |  | |
| for misplacing the mouse. |  | |
| I went out for lunch and got caught in the rain. |  | |
| I left work early to pick up my new eye glasses (wrong size). |  | |
| Then I picked up the kids from school and daycare, |  | |
| Drove the boys to karate lessons |  | |
| and then the girls to tap and ballet. |  | |
| When we got back home, all they wanted to do was watch TV |  | |
| and sing karaoke instead of doing their homework. |  | |
| After much chaos, they took their baths and got ready for bed |  | |
| and after much hounding they brushed their teeth. |  | |
| Then I read them their nightly bedtime stories, and they finally went to sleep. |  | |
| So I tried doing some aerobics in the living room. |  | |
| Uh-oh, I don't think all the fast food and excercise is agreeing with me. |  | |
| Now I think I'm getting a migraine. |  | |
| I'm pretty certain it's the flu. |  | |
| After a long and grueling day, I crawled into bed and was just drifting off when |  | |
| I realized I had forgotten something. Dear Lord, despite the topys-turvy day I've had, I give thanks to you for all the blessings you've bestowed upon me and my family. |  | |
| And next week, I'm off to the spa and pool for some much-needed rest and relaxation. That's how my life is going, so how are things with you? |  |
