Pantyhose and Psychosis...

Well this morning started out ok, one of the girls (Macy) got up and was getting ready, while the other two were actually moving and we were only 15 minutes into our day, not bad considering their track record. I was in a place of non-familiar territory and at this point felt as though I may be able to actually check out something online real quick and leave the girls to getting ready for one minute without supervision, I mean they are nine years old, what can happen....so as I venture to my Facebook page and proceed to look up a phone number from my inbox I suddenly hear what sounds like something out of the movie One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, so of course I jump from my seat to see who was possibly killing who and upon arrival I notice my daughter (Macy) dismembering a pair of pantyhose , now I know how big of a pain in the arse pantyhose can be but I never recall killing a pair...she was yanking at them and screaming "there is a hole in this pair",and as I watched I couldn't help but think "bipolar" and well if there wasn't a hole in them than, there sure is now, she proceeds to throw them violently across the room and all the while we were all just a tad dazed and not sure if any of us should approach her in her time of crisis, I am not much of a risk taker these days so I kept my distance, which I think was the smartest choice or I would have been the next item dismembered, she than ran in the room and finally ventures out with a new pair of pantyhose and a smile, guessing these pantyhose are hole free...although the episode makes me question her psychosis I just chalk it off as a bad day and leave it at that, and never dare to tell her she actually has a hole in the back of her new pantyhose as well for fear of instigating another episode, so I just leave it , whats that saying "some things are better left unsaid". Well the morning is getting better and I guess Meagan started to feel left out so of course she has to have an episode as well, although Meagan's was not one of the bipolar kind, hers was one more on the level of Paranoid Schizophrenia kind, her sister is starring at her while she eats, it makes her paranoid so she screams and cries "Macy will not stop watching me eat all the time, it drives me crazy" as she attacks her and tries to dismember her sister, and all I could think of was the three words they used "drives me crazy"...now if any one knows what it is like to be driven crazy, well it is me and my daughters are my cab drivers and my destination is Mucho Loco Blvd, and it is an one way trip with NO outlet. If all it took was a hole in our pantyhose and someone starring at us to drive us crazy, well all Moms would be crazy, and yes we all know you guys (the kids) beg to differ and all Moms are crazy in your book..... in our defense, you did drive us there and drop us off at Mucho Loco Blvd, with NO outlet (may I remind you). So the girls recovered and pretty nicely, they got out the door all intact, no one dismembered, so besides the death of the pantyhose we all survived yet another morning of the usual, the usual scrambling to find ones sanity some where midst the dismembered pantyhose and dense stares, so until tomorrow I bid you all a farewell and hopefully a sane day, So like holes in my pantyhose, this is the frazzle of my life...and every tear derives from a purpose which is bound with some sentiment".
