On Strike!


Owning a lake cabin has its pros and cons. Having a getaway is nice, being close to nature is wonderful, the peace and quiet is appreciated. On the other hand, there's an old saying that "fish and guests start to smell after 3 days" and I have to agree. By the fourth or fifth day, the stress begins to build as I get tired of waiting on everybody hand and foot, cooking all of the meals and doing most of the dishes. I finally reached the end of my rope last evening and announced that I'm going on strike. If they want to eat, they'll have to fix their own meals---the tavern is closed. The DH usually gets up before dawn, but today he slept in. When I commented on it, he stated, "I was afraid to get up!" Well, maybe he should be...
