It's Shocking! Hold on to Your Hats!

 

Have you heard the gossip?

No . . . what?

Word has it that Susan is . . . wait for it . . .
  

CLEANING HOUSE!

Susan thinking domestic thoughts?  

 It can't be true.  

Has the world gone mad?!!

Oh yes, it's true -- 

and it goes beyond scrubbing the floors.  

We hear that she even put away THE PILE!

 

No. Way.

Not the "ten year" pile?

 

Yup.

Something must be up . . . 
  

houseguests, perhaps?

Yes, it's true -- 

I AM cleaning,
and buying real groceries --

and I did attack the 10 year pile 

rather than just dusting around it again!

So thanks for coming, company . . . 

(Actually, the whole family thanks you.)

Oh, blessed guests who came to stay,

You helped to brighten up our day!

For Mom at last has cleaned the floors

(plus fifty other dirty chores!)

And we can't offer thanks enough

For making her sort through that stuff . . .

We're wondering if you can stay

To motivate her every day?

(If we can strike some kind of deal,

Perhaps she'll even cook a MEAL!)

(don't get your hopes up, kiddies.)

Happy Friday . . . 
  

and now that my chores are done, 

the party's at MY HOUSE!
