A wasted day in the life of a mum?

I woke up this morning with a full day ahead, i Rug Doctored the dining room, the couches and rugs, washing in and washing out, an Everest pile if ironing done, toys packed away, windows polished and sparkling, dusted and hovered, straightened and tided, dishwasher loaded and unloaded several times and floors mopped and all the rest we mums do in the day. But no time to sit and enjoy the clear floors and sparkling kitchen sides as the kids need collecting from school........

Then pots out, tea cooked, while toys are pulled out and played with, toddlers "help" by re-cleaning the windows with dirty baby wipes and tea is out and the scrubbed table is painted red with pasta sauce, which now dots the newly cleaned carpet, pots all over the sides more dishwasher loading to do, last load of washing brought in , stacked in the kitchen ready to iron, sticky fingers on the telly and a muddy puddle walked through the kitchen, and its only 18.45....

I have to wonder if i really should have spent my day more wisely, perhaps sat drinking tea on the couch watching Jeremy Kyle or Judge Judy and working on my Starwars knitting.... After all the house would have been exactly the same!!!
