New Year's Day seemed a dead
loss. All the family got out of bed
on the wrong side — . having got
there too late the night before.
With all of us so grumpy it was a
depressing way to start 1972,
Therefore, I vowed the day
after New Years would be dif-
ferent. I, at least, would tun over
a new leaf and resolve to spread
only good cheer and kindness to
my family in the year ahead.
- Hence, as soon as I heard my
spouse stirring in the morning I
hopped out of bed as quick as a
cricket and hurried to the kitchen
to make his breakfast.
Admittedly, he's not used to
this kind of treatment but I
hardly expected him to meet my
cheery efforts with a terse, "You
sick or something?"
Undaunted I beamed, "Good
morning, good morning, you
handsome devil," and I
presented him his hot cereal.
He growled just like Papa
Bear. "This porridge is too
salty."
"Forgive me," I pleaded as I
swept the offensive cereal away
and slid a plate of bacon and eggs
in front of him. "I do pray that
these are done to your pleasure."
He eyed me and the eggs as
suspiciously as if he expected
arsenic poisoning.
I tided to wake our youngest
for Sunday School. "Wakey,
wakey," I enthused, "rise and
shine. Happy, happy new year!"
He groaned. "It isn't either
happy; I'm too sick to get
up . . . probably a coronary. Go
away."
"As soon as we're home froni
Sunday School we'll perform
heart surgery," I assured him
cheerfully.
The telephone rang, It was
daughter number two.
"How wonderful to hear your
voice," I told her.
"What do you mean by that?"
she asked defensively. "I was
home the day before yester-
day . . Mom, I'm going to need
more money I'm sorry but I
forgot to tell you . . "
"That's perfectly alright,
darling. How much more do you
require?"
After a little silence she said,
"Listen Mom, I'd better speak
to Dad. You sound like you've got
a fever."
I went off to church filled with
Christian charity. Later, as I was
leaving, my back end slid into
another car thereby crushing its
fender, and for a brief moment I
was tempted to loosen the grasp
on my love to mankind, But, after
counting to 110 I was able to
revive my blithe spirits and by
the time I arrived home I could
tell my husband gleefully, "I
banged into Mr. 's car and
smashed both his and our fen-
ders, but nobody was
killed . . isn't that mar-
vellous?"
He advanced toward me with
hands clenched and a menacing
look in his eye. "You mean
nobody has been killed yet," he
said.
Quickly , I decided to see if
elder son had awakened from his
slumber,
"My, you're looking gorgeous
this morning," I told him as he
squinted at me balefully.
Humming I began to pick up his
clothes from the floor.
"For crying out loud, Mom,
leave those things alone. I'll pick
them up myself. Your own room
doesn't always look so neat," he
chided me crossly. "Get out of
here, will you?"
It was almost time for our elder
daughter and husband to arrive.
Remembering my new plan to be
kinder and more compromising, I
resolved not to into the usual
, political fight with our son-in-law.
Therefore, shortly after they
had their coats off I stated with
immense sincerity, "Wasn't
Prime Minister Trudeau mar-
vellous on TN.. .. so suave, so
brilliant, so fluent."
"I see no call for your sar-
casim," countered son-in-law.
"She's been making, idiotic,
smart, sarcastic remarks like
that all day," my husband in-
formed him,
"Besides, she's been acting
creepy," reported our littlest guy.
"I think she's gone nuts," his
brother added.
"Now, hold on," I yelled.
"That's enough, Here, I make a
New Year's resolution to be
happy and understanding no
matter what . , . to be a better
wife and mother, and I could
stick in my eye all the ap-
preciation I've got from you guys
for my efforts.
"You rotten kids don't deserve
a better mother , . and you," I
glared at my mate, "don't
deserve the wife you've got."
I began making appropriate
gestures. "You're the ones who
need to make a New Year's
resolutions. Like getting in and
out of bed at a decent hour; like
picking up your clothes and doing
a little more work around here,
and like showing a lot more
consideration and thankfulness
for me!"
Like magic they all relaxed.
"Whew", said the youngest.
"She's finally back to normal, but
she sure had me worried for a
while."
And everybody smiled happily.
