What A Really Hot Bath Can Do…
Posted By AmyD. on May 22, 2006
1. It can make you forget that just twenty minutes ago you really wanted to throw your 14 year old off the second story deck just to see if he might bounce.
2. It can make you remember that even though you’ve spent the last three hours with a 2 year old attached to your hip while your husband works late – that you still love him and want him to come home… to take the two year old.
3. When combined with an ipod at full blast and all the lights off it can make you feel as if you are in that lovely hotel in Cambria and not just feet away from three kids with only a hollow core door between you and utter chaos.
4. With the lights off can actually make you forget that you are merely a rowboat, a dingy, in a vast sea of endless boxes.
5. Can allow you to get reaquainted with music other than Laurie Berkner and songs from Dora the Explorer.
Thank God for Louis Armstrong, Michael Buble, Harry Connick, Steve Tyrell, and Bing Crosby.

Oh my…I hear ya on all counts. LOL
I am sore from mowing the grass this morning, (I thought it would relieve the achiness from walking for miles at the city-wide garage sales over the weekend – how stupid was that? LOL) A long, hot soak sounds perfect right now!
I wanted to throw a 17-year-old girl off a building after she came home from a friend’s house with her hair dyed black!
Love this!
Laughed sooo hard at number 1.
Ahh, a long hot bath. I am jealous. I think that sounds about perfect right about now!
Bath? What’s a bath?!?!?!?
Mmmm…I SO need a bath right now! I’m sorry I’ve been on SUCH an annoying blog visiting hiatus! I’ve missed your posts.
marti black?!?!?! Really? Remember when Julia Louis-Dreyfus did those hair commercials. Whatever color she said she was… I ran out and bought because I had had a really bad henna experience. Sorta… anyway, it turned my hair BLACK, we’re talking Priscilla Presley in the 60′s BLACK. The day before Halloween, no less.
buffy Thanks!
Crazy Lady I’m SOOO tempted to do it again tonight. I don’t know if the kids would let me get away with it two nights in a row.
Bonanza That’s what I said when I saw my new tub. I don’t think I’ve had a bath since I was pregnant with Maggie… I lucked out last night though. ;o)
Zube Yes, as if you’ve just been twiddling your thumbs with nothing to do… you’ve got a lot on your plate, don’t worry about it. But, I am glad you miss my posts… I’ve missed your comments.
