I live in 12-hour cycles. Seven AM and Seven PM are whistles going off in my head. The tenor and pace of the whole day flows from these two times. If the kids aren't downstairs by 7:30 AM to eat breakfast, they will arrive at school late. Sometimes late enough to see half their class marching off to Spanish while they're hanging up their coat. If five children are not upstairs by 7pm, then brushing, changing, book reading will go overtime. The lights will not be out by 8, and the necessary sleep evaporates. Make this a pattern, and by the fourth day, everyone's a bit kookoo. That's why I'm the Cassandra, the militant, the witch on her broom. Deliverer of bad news such as, Time to wake up, Time to get dressed, Get dressed now, if you don't get dressed, we will take your clothes to school in a bag. And these: Time to go downstairs to breakfast. It's breakfast time now so you need to go downstairs. Didn't I ask you ten minutes ago to come to breakfast? No, you can't play the piano now, it's breakfast time. Put the guinea pig down and come to the table! IT'S 8 O'CLOCK, COME DOWN TO BREAKFAST NOW!
Aren't I supposed to be sipping my coffee and gazing out over five fresh faces eating cereal, all scrubbed and dressed for the day? As the sun rays dance over the steaming bowl of scrambled eggs, shouldn't we be overwhelmed with a gratitude that makes us break out in song?
Not at my house. Snakes are coming out of my hair, and if you look at me, I will turn you to stone.

Thank you, I have recently been searching for information about this topic for ages and yours is the best I have discovered so far.
When looking at the calendar on my desktop, I find out that it's less than 20 days away from the Christmas. It is the time to prepare a gift for my girlfriend and family. Last year, the winter is so cold, I just bought her several [url=http://www.aniub.com]UGG boots[/url] to warm her feet. But now my beautiful and slim wife deserved more than before! I decide to give her a big pleasantly surprised, She love the high heel shoes so much, may be this is my best choice,[url=http://www.clpumps.com]Christian Louboutin[/url] is a popular brand in recent years, the red high heels can make a women looks much more sexy, the special design and its high-quality raw materials also attract my eyes. The price may be a little expensive, how ever, it's worth the value. The high-heel shoes are favorites of ladies because the shoes adorn their legs, especially for the ladies whose legs are short. Maybe people usually saw high-heel shoes in the nightclubs 30 years ago, but now high-heel shoes help ladies a lot on dress up, no matter what you dress, it looks beautiful when you are wearing a pair of high-heel shoes and will attract men's eyes. The red sole design of Christian Louboutin is very beautiful,especially the [url=http://www.clpumps.com/Discount%20Christian%20Louboutin-pumps_c15]Christian Louboutin Pumps[/url], it is also a sign of the Christian Louboutin for about 20 years, but the one I have booked at a online Christian Louboutin shop is red and black, it looks very graceful and special, I think my wife should like it very much when she see open the gift box. Well, you know, the Christmas holiday is a good time for dating, next year maybe I will buy diamond ring, but this year Christian Louboutin is the best Christmas gift. What about your gifts for your girlfriends or the other people?
