(This is my submission to Works for Me Wednesday, hosted by We Are That Family. For more fabulous tips and tricks, head on over!)
When you try your best, but you don't succeed...when you get what you want, but not what you need.....
When it's 5:30 and you want to scream and Daddy's not coming home for an hour, and the kids ARE already screaming, it's time for drastic measures.
If you happen to be a former Vocal Music major, and have access to a bit of sheet music and a stereo...
I give you SingStar: Geek Edition.
Now, if you need to find me, I'll be in the kitchen. Belting out Josh Groban. In Italian.
Because I can. And it makes me feel better.
If that doesn't work, try banging out some Coldplay on the piano for some DIY Rockband action! It Works for Me!
(No, seriously. It does. Singing really, REALLY loud is just like screaming...only it doesn't make the babies cry. Much.)
You know what makes babies cry?
ReplyDeleteKate's platypus face. Seriously, try it.
Sounds like so great ideas for future use! I'll have to remember that! :O)

Yes. Singing loudly and dancing. Works for me :)
ReplyDeleteWhen I would break out in song, mine would laugh so hard. It would diffuse any tension. And I am NOT kidding!
