July 23
So, I'm sitting in the middle of the front room floor folding laundry and as soon as I get the mountain folded, the buzzer goes off for another round of fun-filled enjoyment. The thought went through my head that I WILL NEVER BE CAUGHT UP ON THE LAUNDRY... what we're wearing is potential laundry! YIKES!
I found myself thinking about the fairies... the laundry fairy... the dusting fairy... the dishes fairy... all the ones you don't want to "tick off" as my favorite sign suggests. (The shot gun shells are not a hint, I just put everything on that shelf that comes out of pockets before I do the laundry!)

My life has been so busy this summer with the temple, trek, the garden etc, etc, that I think the fairies are toast. Why, even one of those fairies wrote the kids a note, threatening to pile everything that they own in a big heap in the middle of their rooms as my mom did once when I was young. I got calls from each of the kids that day, wondering if I had really lost it and saying that they "promised" that their rooms would be clean by the end of the day.
