GO TO BED -A Little Story

romaThis speaks for itself : No wonder you are tired!
 
Mum and Dad were watching TV when Mum said, "I'm tired, and it's getting
late. I think I'll go to bed." She went to the kitchen to make sandwiches
for the next day's lunches. Rinsed out the popcorn bowls, took meat out of
the freezer for supper the following evening, checked the cereal box levels,
filled the sugar container, put spoons and bowls on the table and started
the coffee pot for brewing the next morning.
 
She then put some wet clothes in the dryer, put a load of clothes into the
washer, ironed a shirt and secured a loose button. She picked up the game
pieces left on the table, put the phone back on the charger and put the
telephone book into the drawer. She watered the plants,emptied a wastebasket
and hung up a towel to dry. She yawned and stretched and headed for the
bedroom.
 
Stopped by the desk and wrote a note to the teacher, counted out some cash
for the field trip, and pulled a text book out from hiding under the chair. She
signed a birthday card for a friend, addressed and stamped the envelope and
wrote a quick note for the grocery store. She put both near her purse.
 
Mum then washed her face with 3 in 1 cleanser, put on her NightSolution &
age fighting moisturizer, brushed and flossed her Teeth and filed her
nails. Dad called out, "I thought you were going to bed."
 
"I'm on my way," she said. She put some water into the dog's dish and put
the cat outside, then made sure the doors were locked and the patio light
was on. She looked in on each of the kids and turned out their bedside
lamps and TV's, hung up a shirt, threw some dirty socks into the hamper, and
had a brief conversation with the one up still doing homework. In her own
room, she set the alarm; laid out clothing for the next day, straightened up
the shoe rack.
 
She added three things to her 6 most important things to do list. She said
her prayers, and visualized the accomplishment of her goals. About that
time, Dad turned off the TV and announced to no one in particular. "I'm
going to bed." And he did...without another thought.
 
Anything extraordinary here? Wonder why women live longer...?
 
'CAUSE WE ARE MADE FOR THE LONG HAUL.... (and we can't die sooner, we still
have things to do!!!!)
 
Send this to five phenomenal women today...they'll love you for it! & any
men who need reminding how phenomenal we women are!
 
Then: GO TO BED!
