Shower?

This morning I actually thought it would happen BEFORE lunchtime. The kids had gone potty, eaten breakfast and were upstairs watching The Backyardigans. I quietly went downstairs and thought that maybe I'd rinse some of the breakfast dishes off first. Then I went into my room and saw the basket of folded laundry and decided that I needed to put them away so that I could put the basket into the bathroom to wait for the next round of dirty clothes. I glanced at the clock and saw that it was 10 minutes before 9:00. Do I have time, I wondered? Sure! 10 minutes is plenty of time to get in and out of the shower. I quickly got in and started to wash. I decided to forgo shaving my legs today - Jeff' not coming home until tomorrow night. (But I did rinse out all of the shampoo this time.) I turned off the water and listened intently as water was dripping from my hair and sliding down my back. No noise. Could be a good sign... or it could be that the kids have done something so bad that they're sitting in the fetal position behind the couch waiting for Mommy to find them. I quickly dried off and got dressed. Phew, nothing too crazy today. All of the pillows were taken off of the couch and made into a fort. I can handle that.
