Why don't you go shopping, honey or The price for five minutes of peace and quiet.

I think I've mentioned before that the princesses are on vacation this week. The youngest princess slept over her cousin's house last night. That means that Beautiful Wife and the two princesses were here this morning and bored.

First of all, there is nothing more exciting than watching me work and then asking me to explain the other side of the phone conversation I just finished. I know this to be true because they all sat in the other room, watching me talk, and then wanted to know what it was all about. The explanation took way longer than the conversation.

So I did it...I waved plastic in front of their eyes and told them to go shopping for something pretty. And they went...I'm sure that I'm teaching the wrong lesson here but I was desperate!

I don't know what you are complaining for - my family either interact with any 'phone conversations I might be having or completely ignore that bit of plastic that I am obviously talking into/listening to and carry on pushing and shoving and making demands.

Sounds like you have it all sewn up there....
