Desperate Housewives

She gets up every morning - to get her husband off to work. Once a kind and caring man - now such a hideous JERK! She makes his breakfast, gets his coffee, and even makes him a lunch. When he's finally out the door for the day - she grabs herself something to munch. Taking care of the children, running errands, and the never ending chores. Whatever happened to all the fun times - she used to have before? She had dreams once too - oh - so long ago. An awesome career, a college education - her knowledge on others to bestow! She used to chat and gossip with many a friend. Will she ever find the time to do this again? Hubby's on the way home - dinner now to make. She'd give pretty much anything - for a swim in the lake! Sometimes all this stuff - she doesn't really seem to mind. But here lately she definitely has - many an axe to grind! If only he'd appreciate her - like he did before. Maybe she'd quit trying to find ways - to even out the score!
