Who wants to be typical?

So, my daughter was talking about some people she knows. She says that they come home from work and they have their list of TV shows to watch. They are too tired to clean the house. They can’t cook because there is no room in the kitchen. Its covered with dirty dishes, and just stuff left everywhere. The kids can’t talk to them during their shows. And the kids can’t have friends over because the house is a mess.

What a way to live, right?

I said, “Emma, you have to realized that is the typical American family. We are the odd balls.”

She says, “I’m was used to you. You did everything.” Now she is married and they do it all together. Sweet, right? She’s turned into a pretty good cook too.

See, we all have the same 24 hours. No one is granted extra hours. The secrets are planning, and working smart – not hard.

If you’re reading this blog, I know you don’t want to be that typical family either. You’re better than that!
