Yesterday I was awakened to CHAOS! Yelling and screaming – “get in the shower”, “brush your teeth” “where are your shoes”? and on and on. I do NOT like being woken up out of a good deep sleep like this, do you?

So last night I suggested no yelling and make decisions now about breakfast, clothes, showers, etc. We also have shoes at the bottom and top entrance so we can always find the shoes, something that seems to go “missing” quickly…which reminds me of the one shoe you see in the street or the one sock you find in the washer…how does that happen? Anyway…

So what happens this morning? SCREAMING in the bathroom! It just happens the hot water heater finally decided to “die” while my daughter was taking a shower! That would make me scream too!

Besides that the morning went well and the fun thing is watching the parrots (I don’t know their names) wake up and the kitten (Snickers) say good morning to them and if Brunno was in there too (although this 85 LB. dog is VERY afraid of the kitten) I think I would be living like the “Cat in the Hat” written by Dr. Seuss - Hey it’s the 50th birthday of the “Cat in the Hat” – Now all we need are some gold fish!

Time to wake up now!
