Eins…Zwei…Drei Those Dishes!

July 1, 2008 by Minnesota Mom Filed Under: Humor, Minnesota Me, Parenting 4 Comments

It’s summer break which I thought would be great.

Instead I feel like this guy.

Make your bed!

Walk the dog!

Practice your piano!

Clean up that mess in the kitchen!

Good thing it’s nearly “Independence” Day. I’m thinking I’ll run to the store and get the kids some. ; )

Ad Jesum per Mariam,

    Boy, I’m glad I’m not the only one. Yesterday was nooooot a good day around here for sure. I told my sister I’m actually looking forward to school starting again for some structure back in our lives. 🙂

    Uff dah! Well, we all have those sort of days. Get some ice cream for incentive (and share).

    Maybe school was distracting you from this stuff you’re now “on your kids” about.

    Find another distraction…read any good books lately?

    How’s the back and the dog?

    Margaret, I’ve been feeling like a drill sargent lately, too. I hope this house sells soon! Kids, clean rooms, swimming pools, sand and having a house on the market during the summer . . . YIKES!

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
