Today isn't bad so far. It's been quiet actually.  Last night I left work around 6:30 and went straight home.  Probably should have gone to the gym, but with everything else going on the house is a disaster area, so I went home and did a bit of cleaning then laid on the bed and watched TV.  YAY!  No ringing phone, no familial psychosis at all. Then again, I was home alone until almost 10:00. I will call around and check on the kids this evening.
