Save excuses for daylight saving time
Lately, I have been late for everything and I just know daylight-saving time is to blame. OK, Heimlich yourselves.
Identifying crisis caused by caller ID
Imagine my surprise to discover that I don't know how to answer my phone anymore. This is mainly because there is no surprise.

As the work-at-home mom-type person, I have become quite the hostess. Granted, not for cocktail parties, holiday dinners, or any gathering involving guests over the age of 10.
