One afternoon a man
came home from work to find total mayhem in his house. His three
children were outside, still in their P.J.'s, playing in the mud, with
empty food boxes and wrappers thrown all about the front yard. The door
to his wife’s car was open, as was the front door to the house.
Proceeding into the entry, he found an even bigger mess.
A lamp had been knocked over, and a throw rug was wadded against one
wall. In the front room the TV was blaring a cartoon channel, and the
family room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing. In the
kitchen, dishes filled the sink, Breakfast food was spilled on the
counter, dog food was spilled on the floor, a broken glass lay under the
table, and a small pile of sand lay piled up by the back door.
He quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and other piles of
clothes, looking for his wife. He was worried that she might be ill, or
worse!!
He found her lounging into the bedroom, still in her pajamas, reading a novel.
She smiled, looked up at him and asked how his day went. He looked at her bewildered and asked, "What happened here today?"
She again smiled and answered, "you know everyday when you come home from work and ask me what in the world did I do today?"
"Yes", he replied reluctantly.
She answered, "We'll, today I didn't do it!!"
