psalm_onethirtyoneDear Da',
Let's say you have two daughters and a wife. Let's say that your wife works a nine-hour-day taking care of people with dripping wounds who sometimes insult her and usually don't know what they're doing.
Let's say your older daughter works six hours twice a week in a nursing home, and is on her feet all that time, alternately being scared to death by hysterical old people or being glomped by the enthusiastic ones.
Let's say your younger daughter doesn't work, sleeps as late as she wants, eats whatever she wants whenever she wants and generally does these things while your wife is doing her two hours of computer work necessary for her job, and your older daughter having writer's block and mood swings like whoa.
Who are you going to ask to set the table, make the salads, and afterwards clear the table and wash the dishes? (Hint: It's not the wife or older daughter.) Can you guess? No?
...The older daughter and wife? Oh, okay. Is that your final answer? Yes?
Congratulations. You have not won a million dollars.
Better luck next time!
Love, Soujin
RARR.
While I was at Blue Mt. Lake, Anna had a stroke. *worryworryworry* I don't want anything to happen to Anna. She's too sweet.
