NoOne Moved In

You know what they say about houseguests and fish?  They both get stale after 3 days.

Friday, we had a houseguest arrive. Goes by the name of NoOne.  Really getting old and tired of his company. 

For example, NoOne here let ME sleep in over the weekend.  NoOne offered to give me breakfast anywhere, more or less in bed.  Well, up and at 'em, I've got stuff to do...and apparently NoOne was going to pitch in, so it was up to me.  Off we go, kids and me to the grocery store.  NoOne in their right mind does that.  Hence it was ME.

When we got home from grocery shopping,  lo & behold, NoOne had done the dishes, cleaned the bathrooms, NoOne had run the vac or a load of laundry.  NoOne is useless, but I am not.  So I did ALL those things....while the kidlets were treated to Movie Time (hey I needed to toil and NoOne could watch them for a while). 

NoOne wants to eat veggies or greens, which isn't as positive as you would think.  I prefer that NoOne leave the table, but unfortunately the kids are more likely to roam the dining room while we try to have family dinner.  NoOne tries too hard to keep things on schedule, so I'll help out.  It's not that NoOne has created more work, it's just that the kind of help NoOne offers is fairly nonexistent.  

I think tomorrow is the day.  I'll talk to NoOne, and see if we can find some common ground.  I just need a bit of time with no one around.   So NoOne needs to go, in my opinion.  And since I'm the one required to maintain NoOne, as well as Everyone, then my opinion counts.

We need to combine our farces...our gift of gab, and collaborate on a children's book.  You write it, and I will draw it.  We are missing the boat.  With your smarts and my doodles, I believe we could be on to something great. The wit and whimsy that you and I have together, could make for a hilarious kids book. I need your direction. let me know

wow

to quote Sally Fields "You like me, you really like me!"

Let's do it!! I'll get scribbling.....and we'll dedicate the darn thing to Erin.
