Dumb Ideas During Spring Break

1) Taking all three kids to the mall as they all need new spring clothes. Gah! (Exit with NO purchases and permanent scowl.)

2) Trying to complete any errands in general. Bane of their existence and apparently a cause for mutiny.

3) Propose going to the movies only to find out that the only movie out there that is appropriate for the kids' ages is that wonderful Dragon movie that you LOVE, but you can't possibly afford to see again. Foul temptress!

4) When the kids WHINE about how it's SPRING BREAK, so we should be going SOMEWHERE, do NOT propose YET ANOTHER trip to Niagara Falls. Oh! The horror!

5) Suggest they finish their homework or practice their string instruments. YOU EVIL WOMAN!

6) Hmmm....apparently EVERY suggestion is the WRONG ONE. Take a shower? Ignored. Go outside? Not when MOM suggests it--only when it's DINNER TIME, apparently.

7) Completely clean the house the weekend PRIOR to Spring Break. Makes for demolished house in less than 24 hours and extremely put-out/frazzled Mom.

8) Baseball/Softball practice. WHO DO THESE COACHES THINK THEY ARE?????

Gah! It's only TUESDAY!
