Imagine if you will for a minute - me, trying to vacuum just now... holding Molly in my right arm, vacuuming... Bean dog is attacking the vacuum (something I thought was cute when she was a puppy, now after 7 years? Not so much). Molly won't take a nap. Jack and Mikie were anything but quiet during "quiet time." I can't get the vacuum to come any further cause the cord is stuck under one of the 3 laundry baskets full of now folded clothes in the dining room. So there's me, trying to yank on it to get further, Mol in one arm, pushing the heavy vacuum, Bean attacking it. As I get enough "rope" to get into the family room, I watch (in seemingly slow motion) as Mikie kicks the end table over and the lamp and picture frame go flying.
And now? Mikie picked up the lamp and frame, fortunately neither are broken, Jack is yelling at Mikie and Molly is fussing on the floor in the other room. What you up to?
