Finally, she gets the kids in bed. They are not quite asleep yet, but the movie is tiring them and they are actually quiet. The cats are meowing, waiting patiently for their dinner. She fills the cat bowls and heads to grab her pajamas.
She gets everything that is needed for a nice, hot bath laid out and heads to the tub. Everything is perfect and at last she gets to end her evening with a nice long bath. Nothing could go wrong.
Suddenly as she turns the faucet on the water explodes. Water is gushing everywhere and to top it off it is the hot water. She grabs the faucet knob and shoves it back into place, but it isn’t screwing on. She can’t let go.
She hollers for her son to bring her the phone and she calls her father who rushes over to turn
the water to the house completely off. The faucet gets fixed, clothes changed and everyone is calmed down.
She contemplates take her bath, but exhaustion has set in and getting through a shower is the only thing possible.
