WHAT DID YOU DO ALL DAY?
I work for a newspaper. I usually go to work by car. Sometimes, however, I go by bus. I like riding on the bus because I can talk to people and listen to their ideas and stories. Some stories are amazing, like the one I am going to tell you now.One afternoon a man arrived home from work to find total chaos in his house. His three children were outside, still in their pajamas. They were playing with empty food boxes in the front yard. The door of the house was open, too.“Where is Mom?”, the man asked. “Inside the house”, the children answered.The man entered the house and looked around – everything was a big mess. A lamp was knocked over, the rug was out the place. In front room the TV sreen showed a cartoon channel and there were toys on the floor. In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, breakfast food was spilled on the counter, dog food was spilled on the floor.He quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and items of clothing, looking for his wife. She was in the bedroom. Still in her pajamas, reading a novel.She looked up at him, smiled and asked about his day.He looked at her bewildered and asked, “What happened here today?”She smiled again and answered, “You know every day when you come home and ask me “What did you do all day?”“Yes?”, he replied incredulously.She answered, “Well, today I didn`t do it.By Phil J.
