“Mommy, what are you doing?”
“Changing your bed.”
“Why?”
“Because it’s Monday, and I like to start the week with clean sheets on every bed.”
“Why?”
“Because it’s a habit I’m trying to get myself into.”
“Why?”
“Because it used to take me too long to change sheets when I didn’t have a ritual Monday deadline.”
“Why?”
“Because your mommy used to be a lot lazier than she is now.”
“Why?”
“Because she just was, that’s why.”
“Why?”
“Because Mommy said so.”
Damn.
I didn’t think I’d give up that quickly. I hang my head in shame.

Wow! Are you really up and changing bed sheets??? That’s great!
Yes, that really is good news. And I’ve also adopted Monday as bed-changing day. 🙂 You’ve rubbed off on me.. feel proud. 🙂
Monday is our bed changing day, too. I’m just not clear on which Monday.
I am designating little tasks here and there to E to get her off her butt^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H up and moving. She’s doing great, all told.
Yeah…. Monday’s a good day for that… Let me know which YEAR. I know Elaine is going to live through this… I’m kinda wondering about Jerry though…
