A day in the (crazy) life
I got ready for work this morning, lunches packed, snowpants packed, coffee ready for the drive, breakfast for the road. I went back upstairs to wake up little Tara and realized she didn't have a bath last night or the night before because we were all out late Saturday and I was at a church function last night.
So I suggested she take a quick shower in my bathroom and she happily stripped down to nothing and trotted through our bedroom, where John was still asleep, into my bathroom. She especially liked getting her hair blow-dried. This impromptu shower threw me off my morning routine a bit, though, so we were rushing out the door, grabbing this and that on the way.
So I get to work and send a note to dear John, who is working from home. He responds that he's been "putting out fires" all morning. I say, oh, you have been managing some business crises?
He says no, "Someone" left two eggs boiling in a pot on the stove. They exploded all over the kitchen.
Oops, that explains why I couldn't find Tara's breakfast in the car.
(When things like this happen, my Mom usually tells me: Time to slow down!)

You crack me up! I can see egg goo all over the kitchen but it was probably more like gross, stinky, burned egg goo. John is lucky to have you, a little egg won't hurt him!!

Karen, sounds like you "over boiled" eggs before. This issue must run in the family.
I had dreams about Yellowstone Park last night, it must be from the mud volcano sulfur smell that permeates our home now.
haha thats really funny.
uncle john- i bet you had fun cleaning that up all morning =]
