Answer key

You decide that coffee and food are the most important priority.  You quickly drink your now cold coffee and rummage through the fridge to find something to eat.  You spy the leftover French Toast that your mom made on Monday morning.  While it's reheating in the toaster, you quickly unload the dishwasher.  You slam the toast back and move on to the banana bread that your sister made yesterday.  Feeling sugared out, you eat the piece of fried chicken that your friend brought over last night.  Since unloading the dishwasher created space to put the dirty dishes, you decide to load up the dishwasher and wipe the counters.  The baby is still sleeping so you move her into the bathroom in her bouncy chair so that you can have a shower.  You grab the outfit that you wore yesterday to wear again today - it took you 30 mins to find something that you felt comfortable in yesterday - why mess with a good thing today?  You take a nice shower while the baby snoozes away.  She continues to sleep while you get dressed, do your hair, and pack the diaper bag.  You have everything organized for the trip to drop off the ROE and decide to wake her for a feeding.  After feeding her, you double check that you have everything and go to get the truck keys.  You look all over the house, you call your husband at work but you don't find the truck keys and hubby doesn't have a clue as to where they might be.  Despite all your hard efforts and excellent organization, you don't get to go to the Service Canada office.  Your baby starts crying and is fussy all afternoon.  You think that it's probably because you didn't get to leave the house today.  Oh the joys of motherhood! Better luck tomorrow...
