I seem to living the pipe dream, two happy healthy kids,handsome husband, a lovely forest to play in, balmy summer days...and nearly enough beans in the larder to keep us going in our current poverty. My only worry is how on earth we are going pay the morgage to cover me looking after all these kids, maybe those pipes are made of lead and we could trade them in?
I've been mulling over possible money making schemes.... we could dig up the garden and plant it full of spuds, or I could earn a fortune from my as yet not started children's book (bound to be a best seller...surely)...or mayhaps we could farm the kids out to sell lemonade and cakes from the driveway (only the traffic is limited to the postman and a few horses so clientelle would be limited).
Somehow anyway I'm sure all will be fine. Who's supposed to have cash and kids anyway? I know lots of folks with money and they don't seem any happier than usual people. I guess they may have bigger homes and dress their kids in designer not charity and perhaps needen't stress about having to pay for a zoo outing they had promised. But then you've got to fuss with pool cleaners and playdough on the ' pret a porter'and queing for the overpriced zoo resturant while we lounge on the grass eating picnics.
Its easy to be poor on a sunny day- see me again in winter.
