Every minute, to and fro,
That's the way my hours go,
Bring me this, take me that,
Feed the dog, put out the cat,
Standing up I eat my toast,
Drink my coffee, thaw the roast,
Empty garbage, make the bed,
Rush to church, wash my head,
Sweep the kitchen, wax the floor,
Scrub the woodwork, clean the door,
Scour the bathtub. then myself,
Vacuum carpets, straighten shelves,
Eat a sandwich on the run,
Now my afternoon's begun.
To the soccer game I go,
When will I find time to sew?
Meet the teacher, stop a fight,
See the dentist, change a light,
Help with homework, do the wash,
Iron the clothes, put on the squash,
Shop for groceries, cash a check,
Fight the crowds, now I'm a wreck!
Dinner time it soon will be,
"What's for dinner?" Wait and see!
Dirty dishes fill the sink,
Make some popcorn and a drink,
Will they never go to bed,
Will I never get ahead?
Bring them water, get the light,
Turn off the TV, lock up the bike,
Where's my pillow, say your prayers,
Did you lock the door downstairs?
At last in bed, my spouse and I,
Too tired to talk, too weak to cry,
And in the dark I hear him say...
"WHAT DO WOMEN DO ALL DAY?!?"
try to stay home for a day and walk in thier shoes, you be glad you working where ;you are....
thank goodness for sweet dh he always understood, and when I complain he always reminded me of things I did... taught my son
when momma not happy no one is happy
when momma is sick, the house gets turned upside down
when momma is mad, watch out,
well the other night I was upset, and my 22 son said mom you can't be upset, I asked him, MOMMA is human just like you all, I'm no super woman... he looked at me and say YOU NOT!!!
wow... I didn' know that... but when things are working out for you we are lost puppies... for momma is boss around the house,
I asked him why is that?
His relpy was " cause you are the keeper of the house to keep us straight and in order."
so I guess my son understand I do these things. I'm blessed.
