Home help



I washed. And dried. And folded.

Then, when I left the room, someone assisted with that crucial last step: throwing everything on the floor, in a heap.

It took a while to realise the culprit was right in front of my eyes ...

    that is SUPER, because washing is so much fun & you are so sad when it is finished, but now you get to do it all again- yay!

    I'm afraid my sense of humour would leave the building right about that point. I'm such an un-fun-mum!

    I'm with Lexi. That drives me insane. Happens way too often in our place. If its not the kids, is the cat, being chased by a kid.
    Grr.
