Rush, brush, dress, blush, finish up and kiss me quick
Remember lunch, good luck with your test
Traffic hectic as usual, don’t forget to fuel up
Inbox full, a note to phone the school
Meetings back to back
Reschedule dentist appointment
Looming deadlines, take a bite, coffee – cold again
Queries, quotes, decisions
Honey, I’m going to be late, playing golf
I wonder if I have all the trimmings for dinner tonight.
Receipts, deliveries, submittals
Send, receive, reply. Please arrange the following?
Get bread & milk on the way home
Finish this one thing before I go
Oh no, skipping gym – again!
Send flowers for Gran’s birthday
What’s for supper Mom?
Food is up, wash up, clean up
Check budget, file tax return
TV blares dire news of world economic state
Catch up on family’s day, sports day Saturday
Get ready for bed, wash behind your ears
Mom, you know that boy I told you about in class…
Kiss me, hug me, good night
I love you to the moon and back
Check laundry, make shopping list for winter clothes
They grow up so fast! Where did the time go?
Dear Lord, thank you for all my blessings
Grant me strength for yet another day
Did I water the plants? That dog needs a bath again
Zzzzz…
