Attack of the stuff!
I am composing questions for those who requested.
55 Flash (non) Fiction
The mountain of laundry loomed and the phone wouldn’t stop ringing.
Library books were overdue and the lawn again needed mowing.
Family members made demands, both the sane ones and the crazy.
She paused, gazing out the window. The children had climbed onto the roof of the garage and were playing with sharp garden implements.

oh my stars! that's a calgon moment if ever i heard one. once you get the kids down safely, of course.
Nice! That´s why I don´t do it :)
I have played with many a sharp tool and garden implements. And I made it, not well...but I did make it. Deep breathes everybody!
LOL the last line....rotf
It would be funny if it wasnt true!
Too funny! I want to hear the sequel.
Lime~ Some people's children (insert eyeroll)
Blither~ You make an excellent point.
Minka~ They were "helping" it's so great to have children who like to help.
Susie~ Believe me, I am very well aware of that point.
Arm~ The part where I quietly freaked out?
Lemme just tell you this: Executives can be just as much trouble.
>.<
So what you're saying is that you had a regular old day?
Sounds pretty normal to me.LOL.
Oh dear. Calgon take you away!!!
Non fiction, heh? Crazy. The things kids put us through. Or in your case, the things the Things put you through.
xo
Quietly? Freak out and quietly are rarely seen in the same sentence with me. I bow down to you that you are able to do this.
Playing on the roof with sharp garden implements? I don't see anything that could go wrong there.
You seem to have a chronic problem with overdue library books. Maybe you'd be better off buying them on Amazon and then selling them again.
questions? I want questions. Huh?
playing yes... but were they in tune? hahahahaha. okay, in my head this was mildly funny. my comment that is, your 55 was brilliant *and* hilarious!
so....? is that your lovely reading we've all been enjoying so much on WA this weekend?? inquiring minds want to know, my pretty -- but only if you put down those sharp gardening tools, first. xox
Damasta~ Yeah, I know, I have one of those too :P
Snavy~ Um, yah, just about
Blue~ I can't decide if they are trying to kill themselves, each other, or just me.
Arm~ Thing One said I was very calm and reasonable, yay. This had the additional benefit of not causing them to freak out and fall.
Diesel~ The kids hide them! The dog runs off with them! I don't know what happens. Thank goodness our library does not charge late fees. And this is only the second time in MONTHS, ok!!
Jules~ Special for you- I will see what I can come up with.
Neva~ :p funny stuff. Nope, wasn't me! They survived and have been duly instructed about where and with what they may fence in the future. Sigh...boys!
You came over to my house? How did I miss you? Maybe Mt. Laundry was in the way. . .
I love that last sentence! Who cares who shot JR with a cliffhanger like that...
