If ever I thought that having three small children in the house made enough noise to drive me over the deep end, I’m over it. Having my house (and our other house and my in-laws’ house) full of people has been enough to cure me of that. Oh my God it’s quiet today.
It’s almost quiet enough to make me forget about all the dirty laundry, dishes and floors I am left with. Almost. But almost on counts in horseshoes, hand grenades and nuclear weapons. Never in housework.
That sucks….
Wow, you have an "other" house. Coool. It could be, like a place to "cage" the monsters, or anyone else who happens to be driving you over the deep end. Sometimes I think that it might be nice to move away from all these friggin' tourists, have a real house somewhere normal, but then I start thinking about the cold, rain, snow, and I lose my nerve. And suddenly I remember, oh hell, I'm not even close to be normal.
