Whotucksinthelastonestanding?

Seriously, people. I have tucked in three children several times a piece, each of their lovies after wrapping them in the appropriate blankets, the dishwasher, the washing machine, every light fixture in the house (but not the front door; that’s locked all the time otherwise it just swings open like a barn door if it’s not bolted), two computers, five remotes, and finally, over the phone, my Guy.

Isn’t the strangest thing, standing in a full yet completely silent house, so tired you can’t remember what it was you wanted to do when everyone was finally in bed?

Never mind, I’ll remember in the middle of the night. It’s probably my phone needing charging, and it will wake me with its plaintive little beeps.

*Yawn* Who’s going to tuck me in?

Who tucks in the last one standing?

The midnight oil stranger on the internet does.

‘Night!

Is that creepy?  Don’t mean it to be…

Tag team night time duties, then there is no last one standing?

Ah, but I am single. Bummer, isn’t it?

It’s tough getting every task accomplished and responsibility handled in a day and at the end of the day, all you have is yourself.  Yes, of course you have your family, friends, and loved ones, but when you’re finished taking care of everyone that you love…all you have is yourself.  And this is why I think it’s important to love and appreciate yourself for all that you do.  So, who tucks you in at night?  Wonderful, loving, do-it-all, you! :)
