A man came home from work and found his 3 children outside, still in their
pajamas, playing in the mud, with empty food boxes and wrappers strewn around
garden, The door of his wife's car was open, as was the front door to the house
and no sign of the dog, walking in the door, he found ...an even bigger mess. A
lamp had been knocked over, the throw rug was against one wall, In the front
room the T...V was on loudly with the cartoon channel, the family
room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing. In the kitchen, dishes
filled the sink, breakfast food was spilled on the counter, the fridge door was
open wide, dog food was spilled on the floor, a broken glass lay under the
table, and a small pile of sand was spread by the back door. He quickly headed
up the stairs, stepping over toys and more piles of clothes, looking for his
wife. He was worried she might be ill, or that something serious had happened.
He was met with a small trickle of water as it made its way out the bathroom
door. As he peered inside he found wet towels, scummy soap and more toys strewn
over the floor. Miles of toilet paper lay in a heap and toothpaste had been
smeared over the mirror and walls. As he rushed to the bedroom, he found his
wife still curled up in the bed in her pyjamas, reading a novel... She looked up
at him, smiled and asked how his day went. He looked at her bewildered and
asked, 'What happened here today?' She again smiled and answered, 'You know
every day when you come home from work and you ask me what in the world do I do
all day?...
''Yes," was his incredulous reply..
She answered, 'Well, today I didn't do it.'
''Yes," was his incredulous reply..
She answered, 'Well, today I didn't do it.'
