At 7:00 A.M. my alarm clock's annoying buzzing sound jolted me from deep inside a wonderful dream, whereby I instantly woke up my family members, insisted they ate some breakfast as they appeared from their bedrooms, rushed my girls out the door so that we'd make it to church on time, after which we headed to Target to pick up a gift for my daughter's art teacher who recently had a baby boy, scarfed down lunch at Subway with my family, drove my youngest to her art class with the baby gift in hand, then drove my other daughter to horseback riding lessons, where it occurred to me that we were out of toilet paper so I stopped to pick some up, then I raced to get my girls after their respective lessons, and FINALLY returned home to chop up nuts to take to an ice cream social at church scheduled to take place in less than an hour.
I don't know, but I always thought that weekends were supposed to be a bit more relaxing than this, right?
Has anybody ever feel like you're the silly little hamster forever spinning around in that proverbial wheel? And getting nowhere?
Well, at least I'll have the chopped nuts to eat, so I guess being a hamster isn't all that bad!
Besides, there are some days when moms must be that hamster. Without moms, who would be there to get all the things done that ultimately lead to a happier nest?!?

I'll definitely second that last sentence!!
Hamster on a wheel? Nope. I never feel like that. Let me switch the laundry and get back to my books now that the dishes are done.
