Once Is Never Enough When It Comes To

Once is never enough when it comes to: Setting the alarm, Making the bed, Feeding the cat, Or doing the dishes. Once is never enough when it comes to: Choosing the wrong thing to eat Closing the door of the fridge, Cleaning out the garage, Or putting away the hose. Once is never enough when it comes to: Writing up an invoice, Looking for a job, Putting on the kettle, Or learning a lesson. Once is never enough when it comes to: Facing the music, Forgetting someone's name, Arriving when the party is over, Or losing an important paper. Once is never enough when it comes to: Misquoting a quote, Forgetting to put out the rubbish, Putting away the shopping, Setting the table. Once is never enough when it comes to: Breaking an umbrella, Scratching a new vehicle, Losing a watch, Or being asked what words begin with X. Once is never enough when it comes to: Answering a question with no instead of yes, Pretending to know the signs of the zodiac, Finding a way to get from a to Z, Or finding a reason to stay in bed.
