Teenage Tales of Terror! I used to love the fact that I have a large bathroom as big as a small bedroom…but now I’m not sure. It just invites too many kids inside when I am trying to shower. Last night not only were both the little ones playing in there, my 18 year old came barging in! The conversation went so… Emily: “Mom, Mom!” Me: “Em, really? I’m in the shower.” Emily: “But mom, smell me, smell me..” (as she pulls open my shower door and fluffs her hair in my face) Me:

Everywhere I seem to turn I just want to crash and burn! The pile of clothes, the oodles of mess No wonder I live in a world of stress! I love my kids, but holy stromboli My patience is up, let me eat a cannoli! It’s off to the closet to fetch my broom And whisk away from this dusky gloom!
