I thought I had done it.
I thought that the monkeys were occupied with something else, and wouldn’t notice that I was going to go to the bathroom.
I thought that, for once, I might be allowed to take care of business like an adult.
Alone.
In private.
Then, it was so quiet, that after I was done, I sat on the edge of the tub, for just a moment.
Listening to the silence.
Then, I saw it.
Reminding me that I am never alone.
And what a wonderful way to be!
(Baby Monkey was kind enough to do a reinactment for me, so that I could snap a picture, because…well, let’s just say that my camera comes with me almost everywhere, but not quite.)
This made me laugh! I don’t have any kids, but I do have an unruly kitten who does the same exact thing.

Aww, Amy. They just love you so much. Don’t expect any peace and quite until they are grown and gone…. I am still waiting to hear the news though that another monkey is on it’s way! LOL

Happens everytime doesn’t it? And an uninterrupted shower, who’s EVER heard of that? 🙂

Okay, I figured it out Amy. You have to LOG OUT of wordpress and then enter your URL manually to get it in your signature. Like this, voila!

I read a biography about a women from the early 1900s. One of the things she talked about was how happy she was to go out to the outhouse because every once in a while the kids wouldn’t follow her and she would have a few moments peace. So I guess historially it’s always been this way.
