A picture is worth a thousand words but a thousand words could not begin to describe what I saw in my living room this morning at 4 AM.
Imagine 2 pre-teens girls and one wanna-be little sister who just returned from an evening of shopping . . .
They were delighted to model their bargains --- and indeed, they were frugal, not foolish in their expenditures. (Steve and I were delighted that they were finally home so that we could go to bed.)
We then agreed that they could stay up until 11 PM. (Next time I will be sure to specify in which time zone.)
By the time I realized why my sleep was so fragmented, it was 4 AM and my living room had been transformed into a fashion stage complete with runway lights and a wind machine. It was a colossal mess with clothes, furniture, clothes, food, clothes, CDs, clothes, make-up and clothes everywhere!!!
Finally at 5 AM, the girls tucked themselves into bed and Steve and I started our day. Steve went downstairs to let Shadow outside and returned. "You've got to go downstairs and see what the girls did." I cringed at the thought of the mess that was left behind despite my no-nonsense orders to clean it up.
Much to my surprise, the fashion stage was miraculously transformed back into my neat and tidy living room and despite the restless night, I still went to work refreshed and with a smile.
Ahhhhhh. . . that is so sweet. . . . but frankly I would have preferred a picture of everything they bought while shopping. . . and the lighted runway!!!
