B is for boy, boat, and...

The kids didn't have school today, why? Can't remember, must be Workshop #41 for the school district.

AE spent the night at a friend's house, so I was looking forward to no fighting from the get-go this a.m. JG woke up at the crack of dawn and was in rare form - he wanted to call a friend to play at 8:00 a.m.

Finally at 10:00 I gave in and thought it might not be a bad idea, had to better than JG antagonizing Mia and making her bark which seriously resulted in me doing a conference call from my closet at one point because I had the phone where the mute button doesn't work and didn't think my co-workers wanted to hear me "lose it" on the phone.

Little man's buddy JV came over and the world was right.

Until...

I heard the water running,

in the bathroom,

with the door locked.

The six year olds decided to have a boat race in the kids' bathroom and forgot to turn off the sink...

of course while I was on another call.

Cleaned up the mess.

To find the boys launching Webkinz across the family room.

With one of my bras.

I retrieved my unmentionables and then...

I forgot to mute the good phone and my co-workers heard my son yell:

"Mom, you're no fun. Give me back your bra."

It's like I always say, Susan, better that they know now than find out later. You probably made the co-workers day. I know you made mine.
