Stress

Let me lay it out for you here:

1. Stressful day at work, email server crashed and burned.
2. Kids and husband and dogs wrestling making all kinds of racket, adding to my stress level.
3. Teenager walks into the room, grabs the remote and changes the channel from the news I was watching (First of all, I haven’t had a chance to watch the news in weeks! and the kids just spent three whole days hogging the TV for an Avatar marathon…I want to strangle the creators of that stupid show!).
4. Yelling match ensues. Major confrontation about respect follows.
5. Peace and quiet for almost an entire hour. (Shocking, I know, I was surprised by it as well!)
6. Pre-teen decides it’s a good time to pick a fight with her teenage sister.
7. Call them together and have a little chit-chat (we call it a ‘Come to Jesus’ meeting) about my stress level coming awfully close to overload.
8. Pre-teen says, “I’ve had a stressful day too, ya know, I got yelled at by Dad!”
(insert screeching break sound here)
What? Seriously?
