The Setting: A dark, rainy, overcast, soft morning
The Scene: All occupants of the house are blissfully sleeping, happy and snug in their nice warm beds under mounds of blankets.
The Precipitating Moment: Youngest occupant of the house awakens, which alerts the other sleeping people of life past the bedcovers.
Pinnacle of the Action: Oldest occupants glance casually at the clock and discover, that, oh my goodness, they have seriously overslept!
Predictable and Cliched Outcome: Mad clash of running around, skipping morning routines, racing heartbeats, leading to eventual calming as bus is made, truck takes off for work.
Lesson Learned: Double check alarm tonight. 🙂
Have a peaceful and hopefully un-consternated day. Slainte, Lisa
Think About These Things 
This made me smile 🙂
I’m smiling now, but about 90 minutes ago, I was a sorry sight to see.
Hope you’re having a good day. Take care. 🙂
seems a rite of passage for everyone! Now treat yourself to a cup of hot whatever and relax! Thanks for posting, despite the chaos!
Good advice….maybe I’ll fire up the frappe machine (not warm, but oh so good. 🙂 ) Have a great day, Cathy! Love, Lisa
I love it! It has happened so often to many of us, but you have managed to put the trama into words that come to life.
Thanks! But it turned out to be a great day anyway, despite the rocky start. 🙂
So much fun…..in retrospect! Love the way you shared it!!
Isn’t it funny how things that are sometimes NOT so funny end up great stories in the end? That happens to Ed & I a lot. 🙂
