SLAM! open my eyes as the alarm JOLTS me out of sleep.

SMACK! goes my alarm as I FLOP back on the pillow for another 7 minutes.

crap. crap. crap. I chant as I rush through my morning routine.

COFFEE! is the single thought that launches me from one task to the next.

SCREAM! in my voice as I remind my child for the 5th time to JUST. GET. READY!  Don’t clean the lint trap, don’t straighten your room.  Put ON your socks and Let’s Move!

RACE! down the road on my way to work.

crap. crap. crap. I chant as the cop pulls me over, issues speeding ticket.
*SIGH* as I trudge to work, coffee finally in hand, wondering - why bother?
