2. Wife's r Priceless....isn't it?

A man came home from work and found his three children outside, stillin their pajamas, playing in the mud, with empty food boxes andwrappers strewn all around the front yard.The door of his wife's car was open, as was the front door to thehouse and there was no sign of the dog. Proceeding into the entry, hefound an even bigger mess. A lamp had been knocked over, and the throwrug was wadded against one wall. In the front room the TV was loudlyblaring a cartoon channel, and the family room was strewn with toysand various items of clothing.In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, breakfast food was spilled onthe counter, the fridge door was open wide, dog food was spilled onthe floor, a broken glass lay under the table, and a small pile ofsand was spread by the back door.He quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and more piles ofclothes, looking for his wife. He was worried she might be ill, orthat something serious had happened. He was met with a small trickleof water as it made its way out the bathroom door. As he peered insidehe found wet towels, scummy soap and more toys strewn over the floor.Miles of toilet paper lay in a heap and toothpaste had been smearedover the mirror and walls.As he rushed to the bedroom, he found his wife still curled up in thebed in her pajamas, reading a novel. She looked up at him, smiled, andasked how his day went.He looked at her bewildered and asked, "What happened here today?"She again smiled and answered, "You know every day when you come homefrom work and you ask me what in the world did I do today?""Yes," was his incredulous reply.She answered, "Well, today I didn't do it."Wife's are Priceless, isn't it?
