It's been a long day!

Here is the long and the short of it:
  • The kids slept late
  • DH rushed off to a meeting
  • Mimi (DH's birth mother) went home
  • Cleaned the kitchen
  • Cupcake would not take a nap
  • Bubba still has a rash--better--but one spot still blistered and bleeding
  • Made lunch
  • Kids would not eat tuna sandwiches
  • Talked to Tia (for like an hour)
  • Courier came while I was on the phone
  • Kids disappeared on the deck
  • Courier left the gate open
  • I ran screaming out into the yard trying to decide should I check the river or the road, all the while screaming "Cupcake and Bubba" (not really--I used their real names)
  • They came running over to me, seeing I was obviously panicked and that I meant business
  • Colored with Cupcake until Bubba threw a big fit because he didn't want to color
  • Tried to play in the play room with chalk on the garage floor--not really a good idea--ended up with chalky foot prints all up the hall way carpet --both of them threw a fit when it was time to go back to the lounge
  • Tried to call my Mom to thank her for the box, but she was busy with her home group
  • DH called at 3 pm said he was on the way home
  • I called DH at 3:30 pm to see if he really was on the way home--he was not
  • Couldn't wait any longer had to go to the toilet
  • In the two minutes I was out of the room--Cupcake took one of her little chairs, climbed up and turned on the stove--burning a plastic sack and a tea towel (just scorched it)
  • She was punished and spent a long time on the naughty seat because she wouldn't say "sorry"
  • Call DH at 4 pm to see if he was on the way home--he wasn't--had a big fit and asked him to come home now--he did
  • Tried to go take a nap
  • Mom called
  • Cupcake fell down and had a big fuss--hung up with Mom
  • Mom called back and I was napping--she wouldn't talk to DH because at this point she was mad because I was asleep
It's not even 5 pm yet. What's for dinner?
