What Do Women Do All Day?

Every minute, to' and fro'
That's the way my hours go
Bring me this, and bring me that
Feed the dog, take out the cat
Standing up, I eat my toast
Drink my coffee, thaw the roast
Empty the garbage, make the bed
Rush to church, wash my head
Sweep the kitchen, wax the floors
Scrub the woodwork, clean the doors
Scour the bathtub, then myself
Vacuum carpets, straighten shelves
Eat my sandwich, on the run
Now, my afternoon's begun
To the baseball game I go
When will there be time to sew?
Meet the teacher, stop the fight
See the dentist, fly a kite
Help with homework, do the wash
Iron the clothes, put on the squash
Shop for groceries, cash a check
Fight the crowds, now I'm a wreck
Dinnertime, it soon will be
"Whats for dinner?" they ask
Wait, and see
Dirty dishes, crowd the sink
Next, there's popcorn, then a drink
Will they never go to bed?
Will I ever get ahead?
"Bring me water." "Get the light."
Turn off the TV, lock the bike
"Where's my pillow?" "Hear my prayers."
"Did you lock the door downstairs?"
At last in bed, my spouse, and I
Too tired to move, too weak to cry
But, whenever I doze, I hear him say
"What do women do all day?"

Happy Birthday, Jim.
Wish we were also celebrating the defeat of Reid and Boxer.
I'm ready to leave this miserable state, any suggestions? :)

Wishing you the happiest birthday ever.

What an appropriate opening for today! (Especially since most of us were up quite late last night!)

Yes, mom’s do SO much - and guys don’t seen to ‘get it’.

Hope everyone is resting up, and happy (mostly) with the results of the elections.

Wise words ...this is so true

We can really appreciate it.

Many is the time I have been wondering at how little is accomplished at the end of a day. Yet it seemed much ado was continually occurring .

What is the phrase ... Woman's work is NEVER done?
