*·~-.¸¸,.-~*WHY I LOVE MOM*·~-.¸¸,.-~*
Mom and Dad were watching TV when Mom said, "I'm
tired, and it's getting late. I think I'll go to bed". She
went to the kitchen to make sandwiches for the next day's
lunches.
Rinsed out the popcorn bowls,took meat out of the freezer
for supper the following evening, checked the cereal box
levels, filled the sugar container, put spoons and bowls on
the table and started the coffee pot for brewing the next
morning.
She then put some wet clothes in the dryer, put a load of
clothes into the washer , ironed a shirt and secured a loose button
She picked up the game pieces left on the table, put the
phone back on the charger and put the telephone book
into the drawer.
She watered the plants, emptied a wastebasket and hung
up a towel to dry.
She yawned and stretched and headed for the bedroom.
She stopped by the desk and wrote a note to the teacher,
counted out some cash for the field trip, and pulled a text
book out from hiding under the chair.
She signed a birthday card for a friend, addressed and
stamped the envelope and wrote a quick note for the
grocery store. She put both near her purse.
Mom then washed her face with 3 in 1 cleanser, put on her
Night solution & age fighting moisturizer, brushed and
flossed her teeth and filed her nails.
"Dad called out, "I thought you were going to bed.
I'm on my way," she said".
She put some water into the dog's dish and put the cat
outside, then made sure the doors were locked and the
patio light was on.
She looked in on each of the kids and turned out their
bedside lamps and TV's , hung up a shirt, threw some dirty
socks into the hamper, and had a brief conversation with
the one up still doing homework.
In her own room, she set the alarm; laid out clothing for
the next day, straightened up the shoe rack. She added
three things to her 6 most important things to do list. She
said her prayers, and visualized the accomplishment of
her goals.
About that time, Dad turned off the TV and announced to
no "one in particular. "I'm going to bed.
And he did...without another thought.
Anything extraordinary here? Wonder why womenlive
longer...?
CAUSE THEY ARE MADE FOR THE LONG HAUL..... (and
they can't die sooner, they still have things to do!!!!)1
