Then I chased the Tsunamis from one end of the house to the other getting them ready for school / preschool / Nonnos. Clambered artlessly onto chair to get something down from impossibly high kitchen cupboard. Did a quick once-around with the vacuum after The Badoo broke a string of beads. Raced up and down the stairs about 4 times because I am naturally forgetful and it's the only exercise I get somedays.
Bolted out the front door and down the front steps with The Badoo under one arm, computer under the other, Cappers backpack on my back and my handbag balanced seal-like on my nose. Landed a smooch on LOML as I opened the car door with my foot. Drove Maxi-Taxi to before school care (at the school). Walked up the steep path to school and down the steep path to school.
Drove to the train station. Ran from car to station. Fled up station stairs. Fled down station stairs. Leaped onto train. Skipped merrily from train station into work (as you do). And landed, seal-like at my desk.
Now, how would I have done all that in a pair of high-heels?
Or with manicured fingers?
How?
