Break me

Hey, guess what? I finally got a break! I'm on day three of a four day weekend. Not doing anything exciting. Maybe going to a movie later. It's

going too fast, though. Part of me is still at work - always is. Kids are making me nuts, though. I love spending time with them, but we've got this

system worked out where it's "pay to play". they have to get thier chores done or we do nothing. So we wait, as they piddle and play and all they

really have to do is pick up about three things and load the dishwasher. Was I like this when I was a kid? I don't remember having to be told more

than twice to have to do something.
