Good Morning!

That "Good Morning!" is said with a heavy sarcastic tone. It's 7:03 a.m. and I've already:

1. diffused a Wii argument ("They keep saying 'honk,honk' at me," complains Neil. "Why?" asks a just-awakened Mom. "It's funny," answers Jack and his friend. "I'll show you funny ... " thinks Mom.)

2. cleaned up dog vomit from the stairs. There's always an amazing odor accompanying dog body fluids. It really sets the tone for the day.

3. thrown in a load of laundry because the kids dropped my good towels on top of the vomit to help.

It's going to be a long day. I can already tell.
