I want to kill her for what she's done. I want to feel my powerful fingers around her throat! I want to see her grimace as overwhelming fear sets deep in her widened eyes! I want to feel her body grow limp in my grasp! I want to see her in her death agony! (***RRRrrrrriiiiinnnnnggggg!***) (shuts vacuum cleaner off and wipes hands on apron before lifting phone) "Hello?"..."Oh, it's you dear." "Yes my sweet, I'll have dinner all set for you and your ladies group. I'm just tidying things up a bit. Laundry and all you know." "See you at six? Alright dear. Yes dear. Good-bye dear."

Like WE weren't thinking the same thing when HE called and said the the same thing we we were ever LUCKY enough to GET to be a STAY HOME mom. Funny now that the Guys are doing it, it is a luxury for us Gals to be able to stay home. It has always been an underrated job.
