Today

Wow, what a day.

6:26am We wake up by being urinated on by The Boy. Good morning. Our 7-day old feather-bed needs to be washed. 8:08am The Boy makes it to the bathroom just in time to pee on me and his clothes again. 9:30am After breakfast, both kids sent to their rooms for fighting. 11:28am Go to laundromat to use the industrial washer to wash the feather-bed. 11:45am Go out for a quick lunch while the washer runs. Catch the entire crew on break. Children bouncing off walls. Wife spills soup. 12:17pm Back at the laundromat, move wash to dryer. Boy claims he doesn’t need to use the toilet. 12:45pm Got home barely in time for him to make it to the toilet. Wife takes daughter to dance class. 12:47pm Boy poops on himself.

He went down for a nap after that, without incident, thankfully.
