Twas the Night Before Work (an after vacation poem)

Twas the night before work and all through my house
Are piles of toys and laundry and a football watching spouse.

Eighteen days off!  I thought more would get done
Instead we all played, slept and relaxed a ton.

It's time for us all to go to bed so we can be rested for tomorrow
But now I'm panicked about the mess, so sleep time I must borrow.

Time off from work and school was a much needed break
But now it's at least seven hours of sleep and we all must wake.

We'll go back to school and work and to our routine
And I'm sure throughout the week I'll get this house clean.

Time spent with family is so precious and sadly rare
So I have a messy house and piled up laundry...I don't care.
