The kids weren’t listening at all.  Chores still weren’t done from yesterday there was Kool aid all over the upstairs bathroom, kids still need stuff for Trek, I took all the kids to the store for Lees Father’s Day present only to find out I forgot my debit card.  I found the mistake on the taxes and now we need to refile.  Lee worked late and then took an hour to get home.  Then he goes to help a friend install a dishwasher only to find out it was an hour worth of work laying floors before.  Lee wanted some answers about finances and I just don’t know what happened and at this point I don’t care. I failed as a parent today.  It was a tough day.
