Today the kids have "play all day day" as my youngest calls it. We don't have to go anywhere and they can finally enjoy their Christmas presents without interuption. Their Dad and I have to go back to work. Joy.
Here are some messages I've gotten from my computer this morning, which will indicate how this morning is going so far.

One hour and 21 minutes later, I start typing my first report of the day.
Then I get a phone call.
Then my 8-year-old walks in the room and orders a triple decker peanut butter sandwich. Apparently peanut butter is one of your more difficult sandwiches to make and he can't yet do it without tearing the bread.
Sigh.
I hope the rest of the day goes better!
ReplyDeleteI have not yet come across the bread that can withstand the spreading of peanut butter... Hmm... Sounds like a science project to me! *LOL*
ReplyDeleteBeing the technical whiz that you know I am, I feel your frustration!
*Hugs-a-bunch*
I felt like throwing that "human interface device" otherwise known as the keyboard, through a window! LoL. Thank goodness, most days are not like that!
