Are we there yet?

I feel like the annoying child in the back seat during the long summer vacation driving cross country. "Are we there yet?" " NO!" "When are we going to get there?" "NEVER IF YOU KEEP IT UP!" At this point it is just a matter of waiting. I still need to pack, go to the bank, pick up perscriptions, pick out some small gifts to arrive with, a token for my host, and so much more I've yet to realize is still undone. I haven't even considered the chaos I'm leaving behind and should probably make preparations for a month away from the house. Surely they can care for themselves but the maternal side (more of the control freak) is beginning to rear it's ugly head: bedtime is 10:00 not whenever Joey feels like it, don't clean it like that - do it this way, those clothes do not match and you are not leaving the house looking like that, don't forget the trash, brush your teeth, maybe you could have a meal that isn't out of a paper bag tonight, is it possible the dirty clothes could make it another foot into the hamper, your eyes are going to fall out of your head if you spend one more minute infront of that tv, there is no maid in this house so PLEASE pick up after yourself, enough of the video games! My mother will be gone the first week of November as well. I hope the house is still standing when she returns.
